Huge amounts of multimedia data are increasingly available, and the knowledge of spatial and/or temporal phenomena becomes critical for many applications, which require techniques for processing, analysing, searching, mining, and managing multimedia data. The 7th IEEE International Conference on Multimedia Information Processing and Retrieval (IEEE-MIPR 2024) was held in San Jose, CA, USA, between August 7- 9, 2024. The conference provides a forum for original research contributions and practical system design, implementation, and applications of multimedia information processing and retrieval. The target audiences are university researchers, scientists, industry professionals, software engineers and graduate students who need to become acquainted with new theories and technologies in multimedia information processing and retrieval.
