Building systems that can understand visual concepts and describe them coherently in natural language is fundamental to artificial intelligence. Advances in machine learning have had profound impact on computer vision and natural language processing. There has been interesting progress in recent years at the intersection of these two fields, producing systems that describe (eg., caption) images and videos captured by personal cameras in ordinary scenes and street views. Much work remains in this and a host of related problems, including that of building natural language descriptions of commercial overhead imagery and videos, where automation is greatly needed: "If we were to attempt to manually exploit the commercial satellite imagery we expect to have over the next 20 years, we would need eight million imagery analysts" [Robert Cardillo, NGA Director, GEOINT Symposium 2017]. This workshop brings together researchers in machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing to discuss best practices in machine generated descriptions for both consumer and overhead imagery and videos. Participants will identify challenges, and recommend future research topics.
