With the rapid development of various powerful sensors and mobile devices, multimodal applications which leverage speech, touch, vision, and gesture have attracted considerable attention. Multi-modal computing exhibited impressive accuracy improvements over traditional uni-modal DNNs. However, this accuracy improvement comes at the cost of significantly increased computation, which limits the practical value of multi-modal DNN applications, especially in energy- and latency-constrained scenarios. Therefore, it is desirable to accelerate and optimize multi-modal DNN applications to facilitate the deployment of real-life multi-modal DNN applications. 

This year, we are launching the second 2nd International Workshop on Acceleration and Optimization of Multi-modal Computing (AOMC), which is Co-located with ISCA 2025 at ​Tokyo, Japan.
