Sketch by understanding a machine

ICPR 2020 is the premier international conference on Pattern Recognition, gathering leading researchers from around the world to present their latest achievements in Pattern Analysis and Recognition, applied Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The topic of the year is " Putting Artificial intelligence to work on Patterns". 
For the first time, ICPR has employed a two-round review process similar to journal submissions, with new papers allowed to be submitted in either the first or second round and papers submitted in the first round and not accepted allowed to be revised and re-submitted for second round review. 

In this edition of the **ICPR 2020** Conference, there are 1407 Oral/Poster presentations organized in five Tracks: 
- Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning for Pattern Analysis; 
- Biometrics, Human Analysis and Behavior Understanding; Computer Vision, Robotics and Intelligent Systems; 
- Document and Media Analysis; and 
- Image and Signal Processing. 

The **ICPR 2020** Main Conference program also includes 7 Keynotes from prominent world-renowned scientists, 8 Tutorials, 28 Demos, 8 Challenges, 2 Panels, as well as an Industry/Sponsor Exhibition. In addition, 41 Workshops on a range of important current and emerging research topics complete the ICPR 2020 program.

Join us for CogSci2022! Our 44th Annual Conference will be centered around the theme of diversity, with an accompanying range of keynotes and invited speakers who themselves highlight the diversity of our field. Our three symposia are Cognition across Diverse Populations, Cognition within Diverse Societies, and Global Challenges for Cognitive Science. The conference is being offered in a fully hybrid environment for onsite and online attendees.

The 44th Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society highlighted research on the theme Cognitive Diversity in addition to the full breadth and diversity of research topics offered by the society’s membership. 





Recent work has suggested that cross-notation understanding (e.g., 2/5 vs. 0.25) is important for math outcomes. In this study, equivalent fraction, decimal, and percent stimuli were used to examine individual differences in cross-notation and within-notation comparison in undergraduate students (N=183). Hierarchical linear regression analyses suggested that cross-notation magnitude comparison accuracy added explanatory power beyond that of within-notation magnitude comparison accuracy in predicting fraction arithmetic calculation and estimation skills, as well as ACT scores. Additionally, participants did not perceive equivalent rational numbers as equivalent when expressed in different notations (e.g., percentages were perceived as larger than equivalent fractions or decimals). Undergraduate students were also randomly assigned to one of two number line interventions: one focused on emphasizing connections among fractions, decimals, and percentages and another focused on developing fraction magnitude representations. Both interventions yielded improvements in rational number understanding, but there were some greater benefits of the cross-notation intervention.

As the theme of this year’s conference suggests, cognitive diversity among learners and educators is increasingly acknowledged. However, in our societies that increasingly require advanced education, training, and technical skills, the pressure to standardize learning objectives, delivery techniques and delivery tools, especially online, is high. In these situations, learners and educators of diverse cognitive phenotypes and abilities experience learning environments that are a poor match for their abilities, making effective delivery of educational content challenging.
