1st Edition of the Workshop on Hidden Information, Steganography, Privacy, and Emerging Risks, co-located with ITASEC & SERICS 2026, Cagliari, Italy, February 09-13, 2026 *** Call for Papers *** Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly integrated into a wide range of domains, reshaping the landscape of information security. From synthetic content generation to intelligent system deployment, AI technologies now influence every layer of communication, data processing, and multimedia production. This evolution brings both opportunities and risks. On one hand, AI can enhance defenses by detecting hidden information, tracing content origins, and identifying covert channels; on the other hand, it can empower adversaries to design stealthier data-hiding methods, generate highly realistic steganographic media, and optimize side-channel attacks. Moreover, even AI can be watermarked or targeted by data exfiltration attacks, being a fundamental asset for campanies. In this context, the 1st Workshop on Hidden Information, Steganography, Privacy, and Emerging Risks (WHISPER 2026), co-located with ITASEC & SERICS, aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to explore the intersection of AI, steganography, digital watermarking, and privacy. The workshop will focus on emerging risks, defensive and adversarial strategies, and the dual role of AI, as both a potential threat and a powerful safeguard, in the protection, tracing, and authentication of information. Topics of Interest Submissions are invited on all topics related to information hiding, watermarking, and privacy in the era of AI, including but not limited to: * Watermarking schemes, usages, and challenges, including model and content watermarking for intellectual property protection. * Novel cloaking mechanisms within models and/or datasets with robustness and fairness properties. * New threat models leveraging information-hiding techniques. * Secure watermarking of large language models, generative models and traditional machine learning models. * Deep learning solutions for detecting and generating covert communication. * Adversarial attacks and defenses in data hiding and watermarking. * Data-exfiltration attacks to AI models, including membership inference attacks and privacy leakages. *** Submission Guidelines*** Submissions must be written in English and provided in PDF format, adhering to the ITASEC conference template EasyChair style (https://easychair.org/publications/for_authors). Manuscripts should at most 10 pages in length, excluding references. We accept both previously published papers and original submissions presenting new ideas or preliminary results. All submissions will undergo peer review by at least two members of the Program Committee. *** Important dates *** * Paper Submission: 5 December 2025 * Notification: 20 December 2025 * Carmera-ready: 10 January 2026 * Workshop: 09 February 2026 *** Workshop organizers *** * Lorenzo Cazzaro, UNIVE & University of Luxembourg, Italy and Luxembourg * Daniela Gallo, ICAR-CNR & University of Salento, Italy * Angelica Liguori, ICAR-CNR, Italy * Luca Caviglione, IMATI-CNR, Italy * Giuseppe Manco, ICAR-CNR, Italy * Salvatore Orlando, UNIVE, Italy For more information: angelica.liguori(a)icar.cnr.it

Webinar by: Ivan Vulić (University of Cambridge / Google DeepMind)
by HiTZ Zentroa 31 Oct '25

31 Oct '25

**** We apologize for the multiple copies of this email. In case you are already registered to the next webinar, you do not need to register again. **** Dear colleague, We are happy to announce the next webinar in the Language Technology webinar series organized by the HiTZ research center (Basque Center for Language Technology, http://hitz.eus). We are organizing one seminar every month. Next webinar: Speaker: Ivan Vulić (University of Cambridge / Google DeepMind) Title: On Merging and MoErging Models and Modules Date: Thursday, November 6, 2025 - 15:00 CET Summary: Despite recent tendencies towards building large "monolithic" neural models, fine-tuned expert models and parameter-efficient specialised modules still offer gains over large monoliths in specific tasks and for specific data distributions (e.g., low-resource languages or specialised domains). Moreover, such modularisation of skills and expertise into dedicated models or modules allows for asynchronous, decentralised, and more efficient continuous model development, as well as module reusability. However, a central question remains: how to combine and compose these modules to enable positive transfer, sample-efficient learning, and improved out-of-domain generalisation. In this talk, after discussing the key advantages of modularisation and modular specialisation, I will provide an overview of prominent module and model composition strategies. I will focus on composition at the parameter level (model merging) and functional level (model MoErging), and then illustrate the usefulness of these techniques across several applications. Bio: Ivan Vulić is currently a Research Scientist at Google DeepMind in Zurich after spending a year there as a Visiting Researcher. Before that he was a Research Professor and a Royal Society University Research Fellow in the Language Technology Lab, University of Cambridge, where he spent 10 years across different research roles. From January 2018 until November 2024 he was also a Senior Scientist at PolyAI in London. Ivan holds a PhD in Computer Science from KU Leuven awarded summa cum laude. In 2021 he was awarded the annual Karen Spärck Jones Award from the British Computing Society for his research contributions to Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval. His core expertise and research interests span, among others, cross-lingual, multilingual and multi-modal representation learning, modularity and composability of ML models, sample-efficient, parameter-efficient and few-shot ML, conversational AI, data-centric ML.

While the new generation of Large Language Models such as CHATGPT, Gemini, Claude, DeepSeek and LLAMA showcase remarkable advancements in language generation and understanding, we find ourselves in uncharted territory when it comes to their performance on various Translation and Interpreting Technology tasks with regards to fairness, interpretability, ethics and transparency. The theme track invites studies on how LLMs perform on Translation and Interpreting Technology tasks and applications, and what this means for the future of the field. The possible topics of discussion include (but are not limited to) the following: - Changes in (and the impact on) the translators and interpreters’ professions in the new AI era, especially as a result of the latest developments in LLMs and Generative AI - Generative AI and translation - Generative AI and interpreting - Augmenting machine translation systems with generative AI - Domain and terminology adaptation with Large Language Models - Literary translation with Large Language Models - Translation for low-resourced and minority languages with LLMs - Improving Machine Translation Quality with Contextual Prompts in Large Language Models - Prompt engineering for translation - Generative AI for professional translation - Generative AI for professional interpreting 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 NeTTIT’2026 invites the following types of submissions in English: - Academic papers Regular long papers: These can be up to eight (8) pages long, presenting substantial, original, completed, and unpublished work.
