Accepted full papers will be presented at EUROGRAPHICS 2022 and published in a special issue of the Eurographics journal Computer Graphics Forum [1]; the submissions will undergo a double-blind two-step review process. We encourage submissions from all areas related to computer graphics, including but not limited to rendering, modeling, animation, simulation, visualization, virtual and augmented reality, display technology, image processing, computational imaging, computational fabrication, human-computer interaction, and deep learning techniques applied to graphics problems. Eurographics Full Papers will be published in the EG Digital Library. Also, Gold Open Access [2] will be available with an extra publication fee that includes open access fee and support through the EG Digital Library. Eurographics 2022 will be hosted in Reims on April 25th-29th, 2022. Located in the heart of the city, the Reims Convention Centre is a privileged site with a contemporary design. Open onto a landscaped park, the Convention Center also offers participants the opportunity to walk to the TGV Centre station, the main hotels, the pedestrian area, shops, and restaurants. Participants of Eurographics 2022 will be able to attend presentations of the latest advances in computer graphics and imaging from the research and industry experts. It is also going to be a great opportunity to meet with international researchers in the domain and socialize around the conference social events. More information on Eurographics 2022 is available at https://eg2022.univ-reims.fr/. TIMELINE Sep. 26, 2021 Preliminary abstract due (required for any further submission) Oct. 3, 2021 Full paper due Nov. 17, 2021 Reviews available rebuttal start Nov. 24, 2021 Rebuttal due Dec. 9, 2021 Notification to Authors Jan. 17, 2022 Revised version due Feb. 3, 2022 Final notification Feb. 17, 2022 Camera-ready version due Apr. 25, 2022 Conference in Reims, France * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC SUBMISSION DATES A preliminary abstract is due by 23:59 UTC, September 26, 2021, and the full paper deadline is 23:59 UTC, October 3, 2021. Note that a full paper can only be submitted if an abstract has been submitted by the abstract deadline. SUBMISSION DETAILS Electronic submission of all papers is mandatory and will be conducted using the Submission and Review Management (SRMv2) [3] system. Papers must be written in English, must be _anonymized_, and must be formatted according to the Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum guidelines. The publication guidelines and LaTeX templates are available on SRMv2 [4]. Accepted papers must be presented orally in English at Eurographics 2022. Review of full papers is based on a double-blind reviewing approach, so please be sure to remove all personal data (such as authors, affiliations, etc.) from your submission. References to your own work should be made in the third person to maintain anonymity. Reviewers are asked to keep confidential all materials sent to them for evaluation. There is no maximum length imposed on papers. However, papers should only be as long as they need to be, but not longer. Reviewers might rank submissions perceived as being either repetitive or unnecessarily long lower than they would score concisely written papers. Authors of accepted papers will present a very short summary or a teaser during a fast-forward session. This presentation will be around 25 seconds and can be augmented by slides. To ensure a smooth organization, they will be asked to prepare a short video of the slides for this purpose, in two versions: one with the spoken text and one without. Details will be sent to accepted paper authors. PLAGIARISM A submission to the Eurographics Full Papers program should describe the original work of the authors. Authors must not use ideas or content originating from others without properly crediting their original sources. Note that such sources are not limited to peer-reviewed publications but also include patents, textbooks, technical reports, theses, unpublished work posted on arXiv, and other posts on the World Wide Web. Failure to comply with this requirement will be considered plagiarism and result in rejection. PRIOR ART Authors are expected to cite, discuss differences and novelty, and compare results, if applicable, with respect to relevant existing publications, provided they have been published in a peer-reviewed venue. This also applies to patents, which also undergo a professional reviewing process. But what about technical reports, and other non-peer-reviewed publications, such as technical reports or papers posted on arXiv, which we henceforth refer to as pre-publications? With the rapid progress of search engines and the increased perusal of arXiv papers by the scientific community, asking authors to thoroughly compare their work to these pre-publications imposes an unreasonable burden -- a seemingly relevant report that is incomplete in its disclosure or validation might appear online shortly before the deadline. Although peer-reviewed publications are certainly not immune to these shortcomings, they have, at least, been judged sufficiently complete and valid by a group of peers. Consequently, authors are not required to discuss and compare their work with recent pre-publications (arXiv, technical reports, theses, etc.), although they must properly cite those that inspired them (see "Plagiarism" above). Nevertheless, we encourage authors to mention all related works they are aware of as good academic practice dictates. Note that with new works posted on arXiv on a daily basis, it is increasingly likely that reviewers might point out similarities between the submitted work and online reports that have been missed by the authors. In this case, authors of conditionally accepted papers should be prepared to cite these pre-publications in their final revision as concurrent work, without the burden of having to detail how their work compares to or differs from these pre-publications. arXiv Policy As authors, putting a submission on a repository like arXiv is allowed, either before submission or during the review cycle. There is no penalty for publishing a submission as a prepublication. However, please do not advertise the work on social media or list on web pages as 'under review at Eurographics'. This is consistent with the submission guidelines at Siggraph and CVPR/ECCV/ICCV. If an author is applying for jobs during the review cycle, it is allowed, as an exception, to list a submission as 'under review at Eurographics' in the author's CV. After submission, the authors should try to preserve the anonymity of the submission. Authors must not discuss submitted research with social or regular media that includes blogs and news articles, as well as publicize via media segments of universities and/or research institutes. DOUBLE SUBMISSION POLICY By submitting a manuscript to the Eurographics Full Papers program, authors acknowledge that the technical contributions they claim have not been previously published or accepted for publication in another peer-reviewed venue and that no manuscript substantially similar in content is currently under review. Violations constitute grounds for rejection. RE-SUBMITTED MATERIAL For papers that have previously been reviewed by other venues and have been rejected or withdrawn, the authors are encouraged to provide a cover letter to describe the history of the paper (however, this does not imply reviewer continuity). This cover letter can also answer the comments made in the previous reviews, by either listing the changes that were made to comply with them or discussing/rebutting/clarifying some elements if need be. Though not mandatory, this procedure is strongly encouraged. The cover letter has to be submitted through SRM as an 'Additional Attachment' (see the last section of the SRM upload form for details). GRAPHICS REPLICABILITY STAMP INITIATIVE Authors who are willing to go one step further toward replicability of their contributed algorithm and provide a complete open-source implementation can get additional recognition via submission to the Graphics Replicability Stamp Initiative (see http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/). All articles published in the Computer Graphics Forum are eligible to apply for the stamp. REBUTTAL, NOTIFICATION, PUBLICATION, AND PRIZES * The reviews will be made available to the authors on November 17, 2021. During a rebuttal period from November 17 to November 24, 2021, authors will be able to submit a brief document to address any factual errors or clarify any issues raised by reviews. * The date for notification of the results of the first round of the review process is December 9, 2021. * Revised versions of papers conditionally accepted in the first round must be submitted by January 17, 2022. * The final notification of the outcome of the second reviewing round will be made on February 3, 2022. * The camera-ready version of accepted papers will be due on February 17, 2022. * From all accepted and presented papers, an international jury will select the best papers. The best paper will receive the Günter Enderle Award, including a cash prize of EUR1,000, presented at Eurographics 2022. EUROGRAPHICS 2022 FULL PAPERS CHAIRS Min H.

EG VCBM 2021 - Paper Deadline Extended

by Eurographics Mailing List

EG VCBM 2021 Paper Deadline Extended <http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/ The paper deadline for has been extended by one week to July 9th! The workshop is planned as a hybrid event with in-person and remote attendance. Accepted papers will have opportunities for journal extension! * Workshop Dates: September 22 - September 24, 2021 * Submission Deadline (full, survey, and short papers): July 9, 2021 Aims and Scope EG VCBM (http://www.vcbm.org/), the Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine, is an annual event addressing the state of the art in visual computing research with a strong focus on applications in biology and medicine. It provides an interdisciplinary forum for experts (researchers and practitioners) from visualization, visual analytics, computer graphics, image processing, computer vision, human computer interfaces as well as experts from biology and medicine, jointly working on next generation visual computing solutions for medicine, healthcare and the biotechnology sector. This years workshop (already the 11th VCBM since its foundation in 2008) will be held from September 22 to September 24, 2021, in Paris, France. We currently hope to have a hybrid event at which people can meet in person in Paris. In any case, there will be an option to attend this years VCBM virtually for those who may not be able to travel. EG VCBM solicits the submission of original, application-oriented research papers that advance the fusion of visual computing methods within medicine and biology. All papers (regular papers as well as short papers) should focus on a well-defined biological/medical problem, and demonstrate a significant innovation or improvement in visual computing. Suggested topics for full and short papers include, but are not limited to: * Visual computing solutions for medical applications like radiology, surgery, pathology, cardiology, nephrology, neurology, etc., including medical education * Visual computing solutions for applications that support biomedical research in systems biology, *omics research, molecular pathology, neuroanatomy, biomedical imaging, etc. * The use of virtual reality and augmented reality in biomedical applications (e.g., for surgical procedures, molecular visualization) * Visualization approaches for data from new or challenging imaging modalities (e.g., real-time ultrasound, CyTOF, Spectroscopy, layer fMRI) * Visual computing solutions in the context of the virtual physiological human. * Medical simulation and visual computing solutions that support new approaches in computational medicine. * Visual analytics in Behavioral Biology (e.g., collective behaviour) or epidemiology (e.g., population studies) In addition to that, we solicit: * Survey papers on visual computing in biology and medicine Information for Authors In addition to full-length papers, there will again be a short papers track and a survey track, encouraging scientific contributions from an even more diverse group of researchers and practitioners. All VCBM 2021 papers (full, short and surveys) will be peer-reviewed and will appear in the Eurographics Digital Library. We encourage the use of digital videos to support all submissions, particularly if part of, or all of the work covers interactive techniques. Please use only the most common video codecs such as MP4 H.264 to maximize the chances that the reviewers can view it. * Full Papers: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers to the full papers track. However, it is unusual for papers to exceed 10 pages (in CGF latex style including all images and references). Papers should only be as long as their content would justify. Reviewers might rate a submission lower if it is perceived as being unnecessarily long or might recommend it for a short paper, instead. Authors are encouraged to use supplementary material, such as videos or executable programs to provide extra content. The authors of the best papers (usually the best three papers) are invited to submit an extended version of their work to Computer Graphics Forum (CGF), provided that their work fits into the scope of CGF. * Short Papers: Short papers describe a more focused and concise research contribution and are likely to have a smaller - yet significant - scope of contribution. Potential examples include the presentation of initial results from novel ongoing research projects or the exploration of new application areas. Short papers draw from the same list of topics as full papers. Their length is limited to a total of 5 pages (including references). * Surveys: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers to the surveys track. However, it is unusual for surveys to exceed 20 pages (in CGF latex style including all images and references). Authors are encouraged to use supplementary material, such as videos, to provide extra content. VCBM 2021 will also feature a poster and an image contest program, the details of which will be announced in a separate call. Submission Instructions - Papers can be submitted using the Eurographics SRM conference management system. More information on the preparation of your submissions will also be available on the VCBM 2021 website: <http://www.vcbm.org/> <http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/ Important Dates * Paper submission deadline (full, short and survey papers): July 9, 2021 * Author notification: August 6, 2021 * Camera-ready deadline: August 27, 2021 * Workshop: September 22 - September 24, 2021 All deadlines are at 23:59 CET (UTC+1).
