McGE '25: The 3rd International Workshop on Multimedia Content Generation and Evaluation: New Methods and Practice

This workshop addresses next-generation methods in multimedia research, with a focus on content generation, quality assessment, and dataset development. These three areas are foundational for advancing multimedia technologies and applications. Emerging approaches in multimedia content generation, powered by generative AI and multimodal learning, are reshaping domains such as entertainment, advertising, education, and healthcare. At the same time, robust quality assessment is essential to ensure that generated content achieves high standards of perceptual fidelity, semantic consistency, and user satisfaction, thereby determining the real-world impact of multimedia systems. Datasets remain indispensable for training and evaluating algorithms, and innovative strategies in dataset construction-ranging from augmentation and annotation to addressing issues of bias and small-sample imbalance-are driving the development of more reliable and ethical multimedia applications. By convening leading researchers and practitioners, this workshop provides a platform to explore state-of-the-art methods, share best practices, and discuss open challenges in next-generation multimedia research. The goal is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and inspire innovative solutions that advance the creation, evaluation, and application of multimedia content, setting new benchmarks for the field and shaping the future of multimedia technologies.
