The BRAVO workshop presents a unique opportunity for researchers, industry experts, and
policymakers to come together and address the critical challenge of trustworthy validation for
autonomous vehicle systems on open roads.
The advances in artificial intelligence and computer vision propel the rise of highly automated
ADAS and AVs, with the potential to revolutionize transportation
and mobility services. However, deploying data-driven safety-critical systems with limited onboard
resources and enduring guarantees on open roads remains a significant challenge.
To ensure safe deployment, ADAS/AVs must demonstrate the ability to navigate a wide range of driving
conditions, including rare and dangerous situations, severe perturbations, and even adversarial
attacks. Additionally, those capabilities must be ascertained to regulatory bodies, to secure
certification, and to users, to earn their confidence.
The BRAVO workshop seeks to foster collaboration and innovation in developing tools and testbeds for
assessing and enhancing the robustness, generalization power, transparency, and verification of
computer vision models for ADAS/AVs. By working together, we can contribute to a safer, more
efficient, and sustainable future for transportation.
We invite you to join us at the BRAVO workshop to explore solutions and contribute to developing
reliable, robust computer vision for autonomous vehicles. Together, we can shape the future of
transportation, ensuring safety and efficiency for all road users.

Call for Contributions
We invite participants to submit their work to the BRAVO Workshop as full papers or extended abstracts.
Full-Paper Submissions
Full papers must present original research, not published elsewhere, and follow the ICCV
main conference format with a length of 4 to 8 pages (extra pages with references only are
allowed). Supplemental materials are not allowed. Accepted full papers will be included in the
conference proceedings.
Extended Abstract Submissions
We welcome extended abstracts, which may serve works of a more speculative or preliminary nature that may
not be fit for a full-length paper. Authors are also welcome to submit extended abstracts for previously
or concomitantly published works that could foster the workshop objectives.
Extended abstracts must have no more than 1000 words, in addition to a single illustration and
references. We suggest authors use the extended
abstract template provided.
Accepted extended abstracts will be presented without inclusion in the proceedings.
Topics of Interest
The workshop welcomes submissions on all topics related to robustness, generalization, transparency, and
verification of computer vision for autonomous driving systems. Topics of interest include but are not
limited to:
- Robustness & Domain Generalization
- Domain Adaptation & Shift
- Long-tail Recognition
- Perception in Adverse Conditions
- Out-of-distribution Detection
- Applications of Uncertainty Quantification
- Monitoring, Failure Prediction & Anomaly Detection
- Confidence Calibration
- Image Enhancement Techniques
Guidelines
All submissions must be made through the CMT system, before the deadline.
The BRAVO Workshop reviewing is double-blind. Authors of all submissions must
follow the main
conference policy on anonymity. We encourage authors to follow the ICCV 2023 Suggested Practices for Authors, except in what concerns supplemental
material, which is not allowed.
While we encourage reproducibility, we welcome preliminary/speculative works where source codes or data
might need more time until broad disclosure. We still expect evidence of ethics clearance if the
submission uses novel data sources from human subjects.
BRAVO Workshop reviewers must follow the ICCV 2023 Ethics Guidelines for Reviewers. We encourage reviewers to follow the
ICCV 2023
Reviewer Guidelines, and Tips to Write Good Reviews.
Camera-ready instructions
The submission guidelines are detailed here.
Posters
We will organize two poster sessions, in the morning and afternoon, inside the workshop room. All
accepted works will be assigned to one of the poster sessions, including those selected for the oral
spotlights.
The poster size for workshops differs from the main conference's. The panel
size will be 95.4 cm wide x 138.8 cm tall (aspect ratio 0.69:1). A0 paper in portrait orientation will fit
the panel with some margin.
The ICCV organizers partnered with an on-site printing service from which you may collect your printed
poster: more information at the
main conference attendance info site.
