Applications are invited for a postdoctoral Research Associate post on an
EPSRC-funded grant in the Graphics and Vision group at the Department of
Computer Science at University College London (UCL). We seek a candidate
with a track record of expertise in some combination of computer graphics,
machine learning, and computer vision, to work under the supervision of Tim
Weyrich.
The post is for a researcher who will get involved in our diverse graphics,
vision and special-effects projects, but with primary focus on and
responsibility for the funded project Acquiring Complete and Editable
Outdoor Models from Video and Images. This project aims to develop
interactive computer graphics and vision technology on smart capture,
synthesis and editing of real-world landscapes for special-effects and games
industries. The project is in close collaboration with the University of
Bath and involves a total of six investigators and six post-docs, as well as
an industrial advisory panel of world-leading special-effects and games
companies.
Key Requirements
Candidates should hold a PhD in a relevant subject, or will shortly be
assessed for a PhD level qualification. Candidates should also have previous
experience in 3D or appearance capture, procedural modelling, or texture
synthesis. Publications in relevant leading peer reviewed conferences and/or
journals are essential (SIGGRAPH, CVPR, PAMI, ICML, etc).
Salary (inclusive of London allowance): £32,699 - £37,427 per annum
The post is funded until 16 October 2016 in the first instance.

Call for Papers for VRIPHYS 2014
We are pleased to announce the 11th Workshop on Virtual Reality Interaction
and Physical Simulation (VRIPHYS 2014).
The workshop is organized in cooperation with Eurographics.
All accepted papers will be published in Eurographics' Digital Library.
The workshop will be hosted at University of Bremen, Germany, and will take
place on Sep. 24-25, 2014.
VRIPHYS is one of the well-established international conferences in the
field of computer animation and virtual reality.
The workshop provides a great opportunity for researchers to present and
discuss their latest results and to share ideas for potential directions of
future research in virtual reality and computer animation.
VRIPHYS 2014 seeks original, high-quality papers in all areas related, but
not necessarily restricted to:
- animation, e.g. physically-based, vision-based, knowledge-based, and
geometric approaches
- virtual and augmented reality
- planning, learning, optimization for animation
- interfaces for creating and editing animations
- perception in animation
- autonomous characters, group and crowd behavior
- natural phenomena
- mathematical foundations of animation
- haptics
- sound rendering & interfaces
- related techniques, e. g. collision detection and contact handling
- applications, e.g. in robotics, medicine, entertainment
Continuing its successful introduction last year, VRIPHYS 2014 will feature
a PhD & work-in-progress session.
Submission
Paper submissions should be formatted according to the EG publication style
in PDF. You can download a Latex template here.
Submissions must be anonymous, should be written in English, and should not
exceed 10 pages. We encourage the submission of supplementary videos to
particularly illustrate dynamic aspects of your submission.
All materials need to be submitted electronically through the SRM portal.
All submissions will be reviewed double-blind by members of the

presented at the conference,
selected by the Organizing Committee.
This year, NVIDIA is happy to support this with the donation of an NVIDIA
Quadro 6000 graphics card for the Best Paper Award.
