It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the third annual Lifelog Search Challenge - LSC'20-held during the ACM ICMR'20 conference in Dublin, Ireland.
Motivated by the success of the first two LSC workshops and driven by the fact that lifelog organisation and retrieval continue to pose significant challenges for the research community, we are organising the third in the series of LSC workshops. The mission of the LSC workshops is to support the development and comparative evaluation of interactive lifelog retrieval systems by releasing test collections and defining research challenges to be solved by the community in an open and collaborative manner. The LSC workshops are participation workshops, where participants write and present an academic paper describing their retrieval system, and then take part in a live interactive search competition. Consequently, the workshop is highly interactive and challenging for participants. LSC'20 starts with short oral presentations of participating systems, followed by the search challenge which involves both expert users in a private session and novice users in a public session, which never fails to excite.
The call for papers attracted submissions from Asia and Europe and ultimately fourteen papers have been selected for inclusion in the program, with authors from Ireland, Austria, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Japan, Netherlands, Slovakia, Switzerland, Taiwan and Vietnam. Each of these papers is accompanied by a working interactive search engine. The organisers are delighted to see such a strong community building around the Lifelog Search Challenge.

Myscéal: An Experimental Interactive Lifelog Retrieval System for LSC'20
The Lifelog Search Challenge (LSC), is an annual comparative bench-marking activity for comparing approaches to interactive retrieval from multi-modal lifelogs. Being an interactive search challenge, issues such as retrieval accuracy, search speed and ...
A Multi-level Interactive Lifelog Search Engine with User Feedback
With the rise of portable wearable devices, it is easier for users to save their lifelog data. As lifelog is usually disorganized with multi-modal information (even noisy sometimes), an interactive search engine is crucial for users to review and ...
lifeXplore at the Lifelog Search Challenge 2020
Since its first iteration in 2018, the Lifelog Search Challenge (LSC) -- an interactive competition for retrieving lifelogging moments -- is co-located at the annual ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval (ICMR) and has drawn international ...
BIDAL-HCMUS@LSC2020: An Interactive Multimodal Lifelog Retrieval with Query-to-Sample Attention-based Search Engine
In this paper, we introduce an interactive multimodal lifelog retrieval system with the search engine built by utilizing the attention mechanism. The algorithm upon which the system relies is constructed by applying two observations: (1) most of the ...
Multimodal Retrieval through Relations between Subjects and Objects in Lifelog Images
With the development of wearable devices, people nowadays record their life experiences much easier than before. Lifelog retrieval becomes an emerging task. Because of the semantic gap between visual data and textual queries, retrieving lifelog images ...
