The multimedia challenge is to attract the multimedia research community by
establishing clear challenge questions, aiming to apply the most advanced
methods and inspire future research directions. If the paper cannot be
published, it will reduce the importance of the grand challenge and even
lower it to a regular workshop.

Dear MultiMediate’24 participants,
to our surprise, we received news from the ACM Multimedia grand challenge chairs that this year, there will not be the possibility for challenge participants to submit solution papers to the conference. We asked the grand challenge chairs already on March 27 for the details on the submission process but only got a reply last week. In our understanding, being able to publish a solution paper at ACM Multimedia is one of the primary motivations of participating in the challenge (and it was the default policy during the last 3 years). Together with other grand challenge organizers, we are currently trying to convince the grand challenge chairs to reconsider their decision. We would be very interested in your take on this as challenge participants. So, please write us to what extent the inability to submit a solution paper would impact your participation in our challenge. Also, please indicate whether it is okay for you to cite from your response (including your name and affiliation) when writing to the grand challenge chairs.
Best, Philipp
