Sumario: | It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2018 ACM Multimedia Workshop on Audio-Visual Scene Understanding for Immersive Multimedia - AVSU 2018. Audio-visual data is the most familiar format of multimedia information acquired in our daily life, but audio and video processing have been researched in separate research areas for long time ignoring their synergy when they work together. Integrated audio-visual processing, building on leading research in each domain, has the potential to contribute significant advances in immersive multimedia production and reproduction. This workshop aims to provide a forum to exchange ideas in scene understanding techniques researched in audio and visual communities, and to ultimately unlock the creative potential of joint audio-visual signal processing to deliver a step change in various multimedia applications. This workshop is following two successful UK-Korea Focal Point Workshops for Deep Audio-Visual Representation Learning for Multimedia Perception and Reproduction. The first workshop was held in the UK in conjunction with CVMP 2017. 3 demo systems and 4 talks were presented, and 40 people attended the workshop. The second workshop was held in South Korea in early 2018. 60 people attended, and 7 talks were given by invited speakers including the CTO of G'Audio Lab in the USA.
