Call for Papers: CGVC 2021

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for Papers: CGVC 2021 _with grovelling apologies for cross-posting_ CGVC 2021, hosted by the University of Lincoln (UK), is the 39th annual computer graphics, visualization, and visual computing conference organized by the Eurographics UK Chapter. The objective of Computer Graphics & Visual Computing (CGVC) is to foster greater exchange between visual computing researchers and practitioners, to welcome more researchers and industry partners in the UK, Europe, and beyond into this rapidly growing area of research. CGVC's scope includes all areas of visual computing, and a steadily more wide-spread visibility that achieves a more wide-spread impact. Submission Deadline: 4th June 2021 Notification of Acceptance: 23rd July 2021 Camera Ready: 6th August Conference (online & in-person): 8-10 September 2021 More info: <https://cgvc.org.uk/CGVC2021/> https://cgvc.org.uk/CGVC2021/ Call for Papers We welcome contributions in the form of full papers, short papers, viewpoint papers and extended abstracts (posters). Submissions are optionally single- or double-blind: authors may choose whether to anonymize their submission or not. Reviewers’ identities are not revealed. Full Papers A full paper submission is upto 8 pages describing completed research, plus 1 page of references only. Papers are refereed by members of the EGUK programme committee. Authors of accepted papers are expected to give a 20-minute presentation at the conference. Accepted papers will appear in the Eurographics digital library and will serve as full paper publications. Short Papers The purpose of short papers is to present late-breaking results, work-in -progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. Short papers will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage process by an international programme committee. They will be electronically archived and are fully citable publications. Submissions for the short paper track should be at most 4 pages, with an additional page allowed for references. Accepted short papers will be presented orally at the conference in (approximately) 12-15 minute presentations. Viewpoint Papers CGVC also features a viewpoint paper track (also known as position paper) which enables researchers a new possibility to publish their ideas. Viewpoints articles offer detailed technical opinions on trends in visual computing or reports on how visual computing has contributed to the comprehension of data or phenomena. We encourage discussions of challenges or limitations in today's methods and areas of potential new research topics. We are also interested in application discussions that focus on the physical, life or social sciences, engineering, or commerce, for example, or related to the process of visual computing in general. We encourage an emphasis on lessons learned from practical experience for application discussions, particularly where visual computing has been employed in a real, working environment. Viewpoint papers are submitted with author names and affiliations. Accepted viewpoint papers will be electronically archived, are fully citable publications and will be presented orally at the conference in (approximately) 12-15 minute presentations. Extended Abstracts / Posters The purpose of this track is to present late-breaking results, work in progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. In particular, it provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students, with valuable opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers, and engage in stimulating discussions. The poster track will be managed by the co-chair team and the International Programme Committee (IPC). We solicit poster submissions in the form of an extended abstract of at most 2 pages (with an additional page allowed for references only). Posters will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage process. Accepted posters, size A1 recommended, will be presented at the poster viewing session of the conference. In addition to directly submitted posters, some submissions to the full, short and viewpoint paper tracks, that are not accepted for publication but are deemed suitable, will be offered an opportunity to be presented as posters. Such submissions will not require an additional review process. Traditionally, the materials in a poster/sketch can be reused later by the original authors for a more extensive publication (i.e., a full paper) with more detailed content and mature results. This should not be considered as self-plagiarism. However, as posters/sketches are citable, researchers are encouraged to acknowledge novel ideas and results presented in posters/sketches. A poster may describe a piece of work in any aspect of visual computing. For posters, we particularly encourage a summary report of collaborative projects, work-in-progress, and application case studies. Accepted abstracts do not appear in the Eurographics digital library. An extended abstract and industrial project abstract are not considered as a paper publication, instead being similar to a SIGGRAPH one‐page sketch or to a conference poster without an associated paper. As such, presenting an extended abstract at this conference has no effect on your ability to publish a fuller version of the same work in another venue. Topics include, but are not limited to: Computer Graphics Visualization Computer Vision Virtual Reality Visual Analytics Visual Data Science Computer Animation Computer-based Arts and Entertainment Image processing Acquisition and Reconstruction Techniques Graphics Architectures and Acceleration Hardware Medical Imaging Multimedia Visualisation Computer Games Rendering Techniques Scientific Visualisation and Big Data Information Visualization and Visual Analytics Geospatial Visualisation Augmented Reality and Collaborative Environments Mobile Apps and Interactive Devices Human Computer Interaction, Robotics, and Haptics Modelling Methods Location We will hold this year's CGVC paper and poster sessions online. We plan to host an in-person social event (as the Covid situation allows).

CFP: LDAV 2021 - Large Data Analysis and Visualization

by Eurographics Mailing List

LDAV 2021 - Large Data Analysis and Visualization The 11th IEEE Symposium on Large Data Analysis and Visualization, held in conjunction with IEEE VIS 2021, October 25, 2021, virtual conference <http://www.ldav.org/> http://www.ldav.org/ Contact: <mailto:papers@ldav.org> papers(a)ldav.org Data scales are increasing throughout scientific, business, and research contexts. Large-scale scientific simulations, observation technologies, sensor networks, and experiments are generating enormous datasets, with some projects approaching the multiple exabyte range in the near term. Gaining insight from massive data is critical for disciplines such as climate science, nuclear physics, security, materials design, transportation, urban planning, and so on. Business-critical decisions are made based on massive data in domains like social media, machine learning, software telemetry, and business intelligence. The tools and approaches needed to search, analyze, and visualize data at extreme scales can be fully realized only from end-to-end solutions, and with collective, interdisciplinary efforts. The 11th IEEE Large Scale Data Analysis and Visualization (LDAV) symposium, to be held in conjunction with IEEE VIS 2021, is specifically targeting methodological innovation, algorithmic foundations, and possible end-to-end solutions. The LDAV symposium will bring together domain experts, data analysts, visualization researchers, and users to foster common ground for solving both near- and long-term problems. Scope: We are looking for papers on a broad range of topics related to collection, analysis, manipulation, and visualization of large-scale data. We are particularly interested in innovative approaches that combine information visualization, visual analytics, and scientific visualization. LDAV welcomes papers on techniques and algorithms, systems, application and design studies, empirical studies, state of the practice, and position statements. See the LDAV website for more details about topics. Please contact the paper chairs ( <mailto:papers@ldav.org> papers(a)ldav.org) with specific questions. Representative topics include: * Distributed, parallel, and multi-threaded computation * Streaming methods * Innovative software solutions * Advanced hardware and GPU-based approaches * Hierarchical data storage, retrieval, processing, and rendering * Sampling, approximate query processing, and progressive computation * Collection, management, and curation of massive datasets * Scalable visualization and exploration methods * Ensemble data visualization and analysis * In-situ data analysis * Best practices for large data visualization * End-to-end system solutions in a large data context * Industry solutions for big data analysis and visualization * Collaboration or/and co-design of large data analysis with domain experts * Cognitive issues specific to manipulating and understanding large data * Application case studies * New challenges in visualizing experimental, observational, or simulation data As part of the review criteria, reviewers will be asked to assess whether the contribution is in scope for LDAV, i.e., whether it considers "large data." Therefore, we strongly encourage you to clearly identify the "large data" aspect you address. For LDAV, we define large data to be data of size and complexity that require innovation to be processed and understood. With respect to size, the techniques for handling this data require either using atypical hardware or specialized techniques that run on typical hardware. Examples of atypical hardware include supercomputers or novel hardware (such as a just-released GPU, an understudied device like a FPGA, or a high-resolution display), with corresponding techniques including, for example, efficient parallelization. There are many examples of specialized techniques that enable typical hardware to operate effectively on large data; canonical examples including multi-resolution and streaming techniques. With respect to complexity, techniques in scope for LDAV should be illuminating data sets that are considerably larger than typical for a given task, for example, but not restricted to: rendering, layout, analysis, etc. Finally, data may be large relative to the resources available, and such examples are welcomed at LDAV. For example, novel techniques may be needed to visualize or analyze data on a Raspberry Pi or sensor network. Submission Instructions: LDAV is accepting both full papers and short papers. The manuscripts should be formatted according to <http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Tasks/camera.html> guidelines from IEEE VGTC. Submission of an abstract is required prior to submission of a paper or short paper. Submission site note: Go to the <https://new.precisionconference.com/vgtc> submission site ( <https://new.precisionconference.com/vgtc> https://new.precisionconference.com/vgtc), log in, go to 'Submissions', and select Society 'VGTC', Conference 'LDAV 2021', and Track 'LDAV 2021 Papers'. Full Papers Full papers should have a maximum length of 9 pages with up to two (2) additional pages allowed for only references (maximum total of 11 pages). Full papers may make contributions in techniques, systems, applications, evaluations, or theory. The contributions of full papers are reviewed based on their novelty, contribution, replicability, and evaluation. Short Papers Short papers should have a length of 4-5 pages in total. Short papers are a venue to report smaller contributions than full papers. Position papers and showcases of interesting application of visualization are good topics for short papers. Technique, system, application, evaluation, or theory papers that have a smaller contribution than a full paper can also be submitted as a short paper. Proceedings: The proceedings of the symposium will be published together with the VIS proceedings and via the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Best Paper: The LDAV Program Committee will present a Best Paper award to the authors whose submission is deemed the strongest according to the reviewing criteria. This award will be announced in conjunction with VIS 2021. The Best Paper for LDAV will be published directly in IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG). Further, other excellent papers will be encouraged to submit journal versions of their work to TVCG (at least 30% new scientific/technical content), with reviewer continuity. Important Dates: Please note: all deadlines are firm and no extensions will be granted. Abstract Deadline (firm): June 21, 2021, 11:59 PM (AOE) Paper Submission (firm): June 25, 2021, 11:59 PM (AOE) Author Notification: July 30, 2021 Camera-Ready Deadline: August 15, 2021
