by Eurographics Mailing List

Please visit us on our social media platforms: https://www.facebook.com/EurographicsC/ https://www.instagram.com/eurographicsc/ https://twitter.com/EurographicsC and on our website: <https://eg2024.cyens.org.cy/> https://eg2024.cyens.org.cy/ Doctoral Consortium submission deadline February 13, 2024 Call for Doctoral Consortium 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. Thanks to Meta’s generous sponsorship, accepted students will receive a complimentary registration to the full Eurographics 2024 conference. The Doctoral Consortium will take place within the Eurographics’2024 conference, April 22-26, 2024, Limassol, Cyprus. 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 13, 2024 - Submission deadline * March 1, 2024 - Notification of acceptance * March 25, 2024 - Camera ready submission and video * April 22, 2024 - Conference in Limassol, Cyprus * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submission website: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2024DC> Eurographics Submission and Review Management (SRM) system. Template: The format should be in accordance with Eurographics Author’s <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2022DC/Instruction> guidelines. 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 (e.g.program duration/funding) 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 author’s research; * research approach, methodology and proposed experiments (where appropriate); * dissertation status and a description of the remaining work; * current and expected contributions. 2. 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 student’s PhD thesis. 3. Supervisor’s letter of support: A one-page signed letter from the PhD student’s supervisor, supporting her/his participation in the Doctoral Consortium, and providing the following information: * the student’s status with respect to the institution’s 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. 4. 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 author’s stage of doctoral research; (2) the benefits of the consortium for the author’s PhD research; (3) the author’s 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 their 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.

Eurographics 2024 - Call for Short Papers & Call for Education Papers!

by Eurographics Mailing List

Please visit us on our social media platforms: https://twitter.com/EurographicsC https://www.facebook.com/EurographicsC/ https://www.instagram.com/eurographicsc/ and on our website: <https://eg2024.cyens.org.cy/> https://eg2024.cyens.org.cy/ Short Papers submission deadline January 5, 2024 Call for Short Papers Authors are invited to submit short papers [4 pages max] that present self-contained, complete, compact works on all areas related to computer graphics, such as rendering, modeling, visualization, animation, simulation, virtual reality, computer vision, computer-aided design, digital fabrication, imaging and computational photography. We particularly invite submissions which present tangible and practically useful improvements to the state of the art, but which are not thematically wide enough to justify an entire full paper. What we would like to see as short papers are individual smart ideas and intriguing findings that might otherwise remain unpublished, due to them standing in isolation – as opposed to falling within the context of some larger scientific endeavour, where they can be easily mentioned in the corresponding publication. Accepted short papers will be published in the Short Papers digital media proceedings and in the Eurographics Digital Library. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to present their work as an oral presentation at the conference. Timeline * January 5, 2024 Submission deadline * February 23, 2024 Notification to Authors * March 22, 2024 Camera-ready version due * April 5, 2024 Fast-Forward video due * April 22, 2024 Conference * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC Submission details Submissions will be made electronically through the Eurographics <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2024S> Submission and Review Management (SRM) system. Submitted papers must be anonymous, up to 4 pages in length, and formatted according to the Eurographics Author’s guidelines (short papers LaTeX style package available from the <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2022/Instruction> SRM system). Authors of accepted papers will present a super short summary or a teaser during a fast-forward session. This presentation will be around 25 seconds (exact length to be decided) and shall 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. These FF presentations will be available on the web throughout the conference. Details will be sent to accepted paper authors. Plagiarism A submission to the Eurographics Short Papers program should describe an 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, if there are largely overlapping prepublications of the same authors that are available online at the time of submission (arXiv), earlier or largely similar versions of the submission should not be cited in the submission because this would identify the authors. This is consistent with the submission guidelines at SIGGRAPH and CVPR/ECCV/ICCV. After submission, the authors should try to preserve the anonymity of the submission. Specifically, the following list clarifies what is allowed and what not. Allowed: * arXiv postings before and after the submission deadline. Do not state that the submission is under review for Eurographics. * YouTube video on personal account. Do not show submission id or anything that could relate to as a Eurographics submission. Authors can link the videos from the arXiv page or personal web page. * Code release on personal code repositories (e.g., github). Authors can link the code repository from the arXiv or personal web page. * It is ok to list submissions in job applications and in interviews as long as they are not referred to as Eurographics submissions. * It is ok to present the work in non-public venues in particular job talks as long as they are not referred to as Eurographics submissions. * It is ok to list submissions on author’s webpages as long as they are not referred to as Eurographics submissions. * It is ok to publicize the work via authors’ social media as long as they are not referred to as Eurographics submissions. Not allowed: * It is not allowed to list submissions on institutional websites irrespective of the presentation form. * No publicity via university or company PR teams regardless of whether authors or institutions are kept anonymous – this includes any postings or dissemination via institutional or promoted social media accounts. * No media interviews regardless of mainstream media or tech-focused outlets (small-scale, non-public seminars are allowed). * Do not post papers or supplementary material on university, company, or other private servers that may identify preprints as Eurographics submissions.

SHREC2024 call for track proposals

by Eurographics Mailing List

CALL FOR PROPOSALS SHREC2024 - 3D Shape Retrieval Challenge 2024 http://www.shrec.net/ <https://3dor2024.dcc.uchile.cl/> At Eurographics 2024 Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval, 26-27 August 2024 Nota bene: Full paper submissions will follow a two-stage review process and will be published in the international journal Computes & Graphics upon acceptance. We strongly encourage to consider the graphics replicability stamp initiative, <http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/> http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/, and to apply for this additional sign of recognition. Introduction The general objective of the 3D Shape Retrieval Challenge is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D-shape retrieval algorithms. SHREC2024 is the nineteenth edition of the challenge. Like previous years, it is organized in conjunction with the Eurographics Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval, where the results will be reviewed and presented at the symposium. Thanks to the efforts of previous track organizers, SHREC already provides many resources to compare and evaluate 3D retrieval methods. For this year's contest, we aim to explore new and updated tracks. Therefore, the participants are invited to have an active role in the organization of the event. This includes proposing track themes, building or acquiring a training and test collection, and deciding upon the queries, relevance assessment, and performance measures. The participants of each track will collectively write a paper, which will be peer reviewed, and published in Computers & Graphics upon acceptance. At least one author per track must register for the symposium, and present the results. The registration must be unique for the paper, multiple papers on one registration does not count. We also cordially invite all other participants of a track to register and attend the workshop. Tracks The tracks organized in the past years have covered different aspects and tasks of 3D shape retrieval, for example: rigid or non-rigid models; partial (e.g. range scan) or complete models; sketch-based 3D retrieval; generic or domain specific models (e.g. CAD, biometrics, architectural and molecular), and various aspects such as metric learning, outlier detection, correspondence, robustness, stability, registration, classification, recognition, pose estimation, and machine learning, and change detection. Now we solicit again proposals for tracks. You may opt for one of the above themes, or propose new ones. Track organizers are responsible for all aspects of organizing the track, such as: the task, the data collection (copyright issues, etc.), the queries, the ground truth, the experimental design, the evaluation method, the procedural aspects, writing the final paper in collaboration with the collaborators, and submitting it. See below for examples of previous SHREC editions. We strongly encourage to consider the graphics replicability stamp initiative, <http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/> http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/, to apply for this additional sign of recognition, and to include this in your track proposal. Procedure The following list is a step-by-step description of the activities: * Potential track organizers send their proposal to <mailto:shrec@cs.uu.nl> shrec(a)cs.uu.nl, describing the envisioned task, collection, queries, ground truth, evaluation method, expected number of participants, and plans to apply for the graphics replicability stamp. * Promising tracks and their organizers will be listed at the SHREC web page, the track organizers start working out the details and recruite participants. * Participants register for the tracks they want to participate in. * Each track is performed according to its own schedule, compliant with the worskop submission and reviewing schedule. * The track organizers collect the results. * The track results are combined into a joint paper. Papers are subject to peer review, accepted journal papers are published in Computers & Graphics. * The description of the tracks and their results are presented at <https://3dor2024.dcc.uchile.cl/> Eurographics 2024 Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval, 26-27 August 2024.
