Eurographics Shape Retrieval Contest: SHREC 2022

by Eurographics Mailing List

--- We apologize for multiple messages ---- We invite researchers to participate in the SHREC (Eurographics Shape Retrieval Contest, http://www.shrec.net ) 2022 track: Online detection of heterogeneous gesture <https://univr-vips.github.io/Shrec22/> https://univr-vips.github.io/Shrec22/ The track is aimed at benchmarking methods to detect and classify gestures from 3D trajectories of the fingers' joints. This track is related to the similar one organized in 2021, but we made some important updates to the gestures' dictionary and the recognition task and we will provide a novel dataset captured with Hololens 2 finger tracking. Details and instructions are described on the web page <https://univr-vips.github.io/Shrec22/> https://univr-vips.github.io/Shrec22/ Data are now available on the web site. Results are required by February 28 (strict deadline). Best regards, Marco Emporio, Marco Cristani, Ariel Caputo, Andrea Giachetti, University of Verona

Eurographics 2022 Doctoral Consortium - Call for Submissions

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for EuroGraphics 2022 Doctoral Consortium Submissions The Eurographics Doctoral Consortium is a networking event that provides PhD students, working in all areas of computer graphics, with an excellent opportunity to present their work and interact with distinguished and experienced researchers in the field. They will receive feedback and mentoring, as well as a different perspective from senior researchers outside their home institution. In addition, the Doctoral Consortium provides a unique forum for PhD students to share their work and experience among their fellow PhD students. The Doctoral Consortium will take place within the Eurographics2022 conference, April 25-29, 2022. Who should apply? PhD students working in all areas of computer graphics are encouraged to apply. We particularly encourage applications from students who are in the first half of their PhD work, especially those who already have a clear research direction (possibly with some published results), as they have sufficient time ahead to profit from their participation in the Doctoral Consortium. Students who are close to finishing their doctorate degree, or have very recently finished it, are also welcome to share their experience and to discuss their ongoing research and future research plans. The applicants are strongly encouraged to consider submitting a poster of their work to the poster track in parallel. Timeline February 4th, 2022 Submission deadline March 4th, 2022 Notification of acceptance March 28th, 2022 Camera ready submission and video * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC Submission guidelines Submission website: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2021DC> Eurographics Submission and Review Management (SRM) system.

Eligible Doctoral Consortium students who would like to participate in the Doctoral Consortium should submit the following documents as a single PDF file: 1. Research Statement: A 3-4 pages extended abstract summarizing their dissertation research, singly authored by themself. The submissions should NOT be anonymous. The use of figures is encouraged. This document should include: * university doctoral program context in which the work is being conducted, including starting date and expected graduation date; * motivation that drives the dissertation research; * research objectives/questions; * background and related work that informs the authors research; * research approach, methodology and proposed experiments (where appropriate); * dissertation status and a description of the remaining work; * current and expected contributions. The research statement should transcend the scope of a single publication or project, and instead focus on the general research theme or agenda for the students PhD thesis. 2. Supervisors letter of support: A one-page signed letter from the PhD students supervisor, supporting her/his participation in the Doctoral Consortium, and providing the following information: * the students status with respect to the institutions PhD requirements; * the expected date of thesis/dissertation defense or graduation; * why attendance at this Doctoral Consortium would be particularly beneficial to the student; * what contributions the student is likely to make to the event if invited to attend. 3. Curriculum vitae: A 1-2 pages CV plus the list of all publications. All three documents must be written in English. Review Process The review process is single-anonymous. The review and decision of acceptance will take into account: (1) Quality of the submission (potential contribution and impact of the research to the field of computer graphics) and the authors stage of doctoral research; (2) the benefits of the consortium for the authors PhD research; (3) the authors contribution to the diversity of topics, backgrounds and profiles that will integrate the Consortium. Each accepted author will be paired with a panelist, a senior researcher in her/his research field, with whom they will be interacting in a one-to-one manner. Participation All authors of accepted submissions are expected to attend the Doctoral Consortium, where they will present their work to a panel of experts, selected by the Doctoral Consortium co-chairs to match at best the topics related to the accepted submissions. The doctoral consortium event will be a closed event with only the authors and the panelists present. The authors will start by presenting their work (around 10 minutes each) followed by discussion with the panelists and other authors. Afterwards, there will be time for one-to-one discussions between each author and their paired panelist.
