Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine VCBM 2014

by eurographics＠eg.org

Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine VCBM 2014 <http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/ Call for Posters EG VCBM is an annual event addressing state-of-the-art visual computing research with a strong focus on applications in biology and medicine. EG VCBM is unique, as it provides a highly interdisciplinary forum for experts from computer graphics, visualization, computer vision, visual analytics, human computer interfaces and end users from biology and medicine jointly working on next generation visual computing solutions for healthcare and the biotechnology sector. EG VCBM 2014 continues the poster track to enable researchers to present their work in progress, minor improvements beyond the state-of-the-art, and the best results of the undergraduate student projects in the area of visual computing for biology and medicine. Accepted posters will be placed in the workshop area during the time of the event, and the program will feature a dedicated poster session where the authors have the opportunity to present their research and lead fruitful discussions with peer researchers that will inspire for future research and cooperation. The submission to the poster track at EG VCBM consists of a ½ 1 page abstract (12pt) optionally including pictures. The posters will be reviewed by conference chairs and the abstracts of the accepted posters will be included in the conference publications. The material from the poster can be re-used for a full paper submission somewhere else and this act is not to be considered as a self-plagiarism. Authors of the accepted posters are expected to bring their poster to the conference, register for the conference participation, and present their work at the poster at the time of the poster session. Please submit your non-anonymized poster submissions including authors names, affiliations, and acknowledgments to <mailto:chairs-vcbm2014@eg.org> chairs-vcbm2014(a)eg.org. Important Dates Poster submission: August 07, 2014 Poster notification: August 14, 2014 Workshop: September 4.-5., 2014 All deadlines are at 23:59 CET (UTC + 1) ( <http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html> convert to your timezone).

CfP SIGGRAPH Asia 2014 Workshop

by eurographics＠eg.org

SIGGRAPH Asia 2014 Workshop on Indoor Scene Understanding: Where Graphics meets Vision. December 3, 2014, Shenzhen, China (Paper deadline: August 2, 2014) The best paper will be invited to submit a full journal version of the paper to Computers & Graphics (Elsevier). The proceedings of each workshop will also be included in the ACM Digital Library. ========== Call for Papers: The importance of making computers understand the scene presented to them cannot be understated. The ability to automatically infer the semantics and geometry of any given scene would enable a variety of different applications in the field of Augmented reality, Robotics, Image Processing and Visualization. Understandably, a large amount of research effort has been directed at this problem in the computer vision and machine learning communities, with plenty of motivation and interest in computer graphics. The availability of commodity depth sensors have led to a number of breakthroughs to made in this space. Much of this success can be attributed to the use of computer graphics for generating realistic sensor data. We believe the time is ripe for extending this promising approach to the more challenging problem of full scene understanding. However, to enable this, we need close collaboration between researchers from machine learning, computer vision, and computer graphics. This workshop is intended to bring researchers from these communities together. We are soliciting original contributions which employ shape analysis and image processing for abstracting, representing, and manipulating raw depth scans of indoor environments. Specific topics include, but are not limited, to: - Shape analysis - Scene Classification + RGBD data analysis - Modeling and recognition of scene-object interactions - 3D Spatial Understanding from Images - Physically Grounded Scene Interpretation - Large-scale Data-driven approaches for shape collection analysis - Understanding scenes from depth images and videos - Interaction applications combining raw scenes with virtual objects - Depth Datasets - Computer Vision as Inverse Graphics ========== Important Dates: July 10, 2014: Paper submission deadline: August 20, 2014: Notification of Acceptance September 15, 2014: Camera-ready deadline Please check <http://geometry.cs.ucl.ac.uk/workshops/IndoorSceneUnderstanding_sigga14> http://geometry.cs.ucl.ac.uk/workshops/IndoorSceneUnderstanding_sigga14 for updates. ========== Program committee Gabriel J. Brostow, University College London Peter Gehler, Max Planck Institut Derek Hoiem, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Shi-Min Hu, Tsinghua University Vladimir Kim, Stanford University Ligang Liu, University of Science and Technology of China Daniele Panozzo, ETH Zürich Silvio Savarese, Stanford University Nathan Silberman, New York University Thorsten Thormaehlen, Philipps-Universität Marburg WeiWei Xu, Microsoft Research Asia Michael Wand, Utrecht University ========== Paper Submission: The manuscripts should be submitted as PDF files and should be no more than 8-10 pages in Siggraph paper format. All submissions must be prepared according to the ACM SIGGRAPH publication guidelines. Each paper will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. Acceptance will be based on relevance to the workshop, novelty, and technical quality. In submitting a manuscript to this workshop, the authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in content has been submitted to another workshop or conference during the review period. The best paper will be invited to submit a full journal version of the paper to Computers & Graphics (Elsevier). The proceedings of each workshop will also be included in the ACM Digital Library. All workshop research papers must be original, unpublished work, written and presented in English. All submissions must be prepared according to the <http://www.siggraph.org/learn/instructions-authors> ACM SIGGRAPH publication guidelines. At least one author of each accepted workshop paper is to register for SIGGRAPH Asia 2014 (full conference pass) by 15 September 2014, and give a presentation at the workshop. To recognize the contribution of workshop paper presenters, the presenters can apply for a 25% discount per accepted paper submission. ========== Program Co-Chairs: Niloy J.
