EG 2019 State-of-the-Art Report - Call for papers - EXTENDED DEADLINE 29/10/2018

by eurographics＠eg.org

EG 2019 State-of-the-Art Report - Call for papers - EXTENDED DEADLINE 29/10/2018 State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of a special topic of current interest related to Computer Graphics. We welcome submissions on all topics relevant to EUROGRAPHICS, and particularly encourage STARs on topics that have not been covered in any recent edition. STAR reports on cross-sectional, multi-disciplinary areas are also highly welcomed. A STAR can also address the use of Computer Graphics techniques in a different scientific discipline or in industrial practice. For examples of suitable STAR topics, please refer to the EUROGRAPHICS digital library. Accepted STARs will be published in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, which appears right before the EUROGRAPHICS conference. The journal status of the proceedings requires a two-stage review process with conditional acceptance after the first round and final acceptance based on the revised submissions. Submissions needing a major revision will be transferred to the standard submission track of Computer Graphics Forum. At EUROGRAPHICS 2019, the authors of a STAR will be given 90 minutes to present the report at a level that allows non-experts in the particular domain to follow the presentation. Submission details Electronic submissions of STARs is mandatory and will be conducted using the Submission and Review Management System. Papers must be written in English and prepared according to this year's template, which can be found at: srmv2.eg.org/COMFy. The deadline for the submission of STARs is 23:59 UTC, October 29, 2018, with notification of conditional acceptance on December 21, 2018. The revised version of conditionally accepted STARs will have to be submitted at a later date for a second review, and the camera ready version will be due about 6 weeks before the start of the conference. The STARs undergo a single-blind review process. To demonstrate the relevant expertise needed to produce the proposed STAR, authors should include their short biographies as supplementary materials. We do not impose strict maximum lengths for these submissions. However, it is recommended that papers be up to 20 pages excluding references and the authors' short bios, to conform to the general recommendation for CGF survey papers. Timeline October 29, 2018 Full STAR submission deadline December 21, 2018 First review notification February 18, 2019 Revised STAR submission March 11, 2019 Second review notification March 25, 2019 CRC deadline Eurographics STAR Chairs Andrea Giachetti, University of Vernoa, Italy Holly Rushmeier, Yale University, USA Contact: chairs-eg2019stars(a)eg.org

PhD position on Computer Graphics at UPC-Barcelona Tech (DL: October 19)

by eurographics＠eg.org

Dear colleagues, The ViRVIG Research Center ( <http://virvig.eu/> http://virvig.eu/) at UPC (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) is looking for a new PhD student in Computer Graphics. The research is embedded in the 3D4LIFE project, "Visualization, modeling, simulation and interaction with 3D models. Applications in life sciences and urban environments", funded by Spanish Ministry and FEDER funds. ** Project ** The 3D4LIFE project focuses on large models stemming mainly from two fields: life sciences and urban modeling. In life sciences we address three distinct sources of information: medical imaging devices (diagnosis and training), molecular simulations in pharmacology, and biomechanical data. Concerning urban modeling, we focus on the generation of plausible models (geometric models, simulation of crowd behaviors) from multiple data sources. Despite the transversal nature of the project, the specific objectives are conceived to facilitate the development of 3D applications meant to improve the quality of life of the people, both in their health (clinical diagnosis, simulations in sports biomechanics, design of new drugs) and in their immediate surroundings (crowd behavior simulation, sustainable urban design, cultural heritage). The candidate will contribute to the modeling, visualization, simulation or interaction problems in the context of the project. The specific topic for the successful candidate will be decided according to his/her prior experience. ** Profile ** Candidates should have a background in Computer Science or related fields (MSc level), with a strong interest in Computer Graphics. Candidates should have demonstrable experience in 3D programming and excellent knowledge of both written and spoken English. ** Offer ** The position will be available after the publication of the resolution granting the aid, which is expected by *April-May 2019*. The candidate will join the ViRVIG research group at UPC-Barcelona, which offers a great opportunity for high-quality Computer Graphics research. The position is funded for up to four years. ** How to apply ** To apply please prepare and submit the following information (deadline October 19): 1. Curriculum Vitae, including a list of your publications (if any) 2. Academic record 3. A cover letter stating your research interests and how they relate to the project 4. [Optional] Recommendation letter(s) to Carlos Andujar ( <mailto:andujar@cs.upc.edu> andujar(a)cs.upc.edu). Please quote "PhD position" in the subject. Selected candidates will be asked (and assisted) to fill the formal application at the Spanish Ministry web page. Would you be so kind to distribute this offer among potential candidates? Thanks, Carlos Andujar Associate Professor ViRVIG, UPC

As part of this trend, digitization efforts in the cultural heritage field lead to increasing amounts of 3D data representing artifacts, collected in 3D repositories and virtual museums. Also, a wealth of image data and documents exist which represent knowledge on artifacts. We will research novel methods for cross-modal search in 3D and image documents, supporting shape retrieval and comparison tasks in the cultural heritage field. We will also consider novel approaches for visualization of 3D and image content, supporting exploration and association tasks. The project will run in collaboration with researchers from Archaeology, informing and evaluating the methods research. Applicant Profile ----------------- A master degree in computer science, information systems, information science, mechatronics, telematics, mathematics, or related studies is required. One or more of the following skills are required: Knowledge in computer graphics, information retrieval, multimedia databases, data visualization, or interactive systems. Practical skills in a current programming language (e.g., C++, C#, Java, Python, etc.) are required. An interest to work in a collaborative research environment with domain experts in the Humanities is expected. Position Details and Working Environment ---------------------------------------- The position is initially available for three years, starting in December 2018 or later. The opportunity to develop a Ph.D. thesis with the Doctoral School for Computer Science at TU Graz is provided. The full-time gross salary for this position is at least 2.794,60 Euro per month (14 times a year) and includes full social insurance. Our research group offers a creative working atmosphere in a motivated, cooperative, and technically very well equipped environment. We offer excellent professional and personal development possibilities. Our institute is part of the Visual Computing research cluster in Graz, offering an excellent scientific environment at large. The city of Graz and its Styrian surroundings offer exceptional quality of living.
