Tutorials
The role of the tutorials is to provide a platform for a more intensive scientific exchange amongst researchers interested in a particular topic and as a meeting point for the community. Tutorials complement the depth-oriented technical sessions by providing participants with broad overviews of emerging fields. A tutorial can be scheduled for 1.5 or 3 hours.

Abstract
Intelligent Vision Systems are increasingly present in our Society from street surveillance cameras to indoor sport training set-ups, from drones to companion robots. To ensure an efficient communication between these systems and operating agents, ontologies provide an effective and interoperable solution well suited for real-world interactions. Thus, this tutorial introduces the topic of ontologies for intelligent vision systems in light of the main challenges in that research field and the developed solutions and standards based on computer vision and artificial intelligence methods.

Aims and Learning Objectives
This tutorial aims to present the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of the ontologies for intelligent vision systems deployed in constrained and unconstrained environments.
Participants are expected to acquire new perspectives about intelligent vision systems’ challenges and their related ontological solutions. In more detail, the objectives of this tutorial are:
I) To appreciate intelligent vision systems’ challenges;
II) To understand the corresponding ontological solutions for the intelligent vision systems;
III) To get new trends and future directions of the Ontologies for Intelligent Vision Systems research and standards.
Target Audience
This tutorial is intended for a broad spectrum of participants both from academia and industry.
