GD 2025: 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS

by Eurographics Mailing List

GD 2025: 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS The 33rd International Symposium on Graph Drawing and Network Visualization (GD 2025) September 24-26, 2025, Norrköping, Sweden https://graphdrawing.github.io/gd2025/ ================================================================ PDF version: https://graphdrawing.github.io/gd2025/assets/pdfs/Call_for_Papers-2025.pdf HTML version: https://graphdrawing.github.io/gd2025/pages/cfp/ ================================================================ IMPORTANT DATES - Abstract submission deadline: June 3 - Paper submission deadline: June 10 - Author notification: July 23 - Poster submission deadline: August 22 - Poster notification: September 1 ================================================================ *Graph Drawing* is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and constitutes the algorithmic core of *Network Visualization*. Graph Drawing and Network Visualization are motivated by applications for which it is crucial to visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Application areas include data science, social sciences, web computing, information systems, life sciences, geography, business intelligence, information security, and software engineering. Graph Drawing has been the main annual conference in this area for more than 30 years. Its focus is on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects of graph drawing, their experimental evaluation, as well as the design of network visualization systems and interfaces. Researchers and practitioners working on any aspects of graph drawing and network visualization are invited to contribute papers and posters and to participate in the symposium as well as the graph drawing contest. GD 2025 will be held in Norrköping, Sweden, on September 24-26, 2025 with a reception on the evening of September 23. A preconference PhD school will take place September 22-23, 2025. GD 2025 is designed to be held on-site. It is expected that regular papers are presented on site by one of the authors. To address the global challenges and as an offer for authors who are unable to attend we allow for a limited number of remote presentations, as further explained below. The code of conduct for the GD conference can be found at http://graphdrawing.org/safetoc.html ================================================================ PAPERS We invite authors to submit papers describing original research of theoretical or practical significance to graph drawing and network visualization. To promote a balanced coverage of the field, GD has two distinct tracks, and papers submitted to one track will not compete with papers submitted to the other track. Regular papers must be submitted explicitly to one of the two tracks. However, all program committee members may review papers from either track. *TRACK 1:* Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects This track is mainly devoted to *fundamental theoretical graph drawing advances*, such as combinatorial and algorithmic aspects. We aim at covering a diverse set of topics, which for this track includes (but is not limited to): - Design and analysis of graph drawing algorithms - Geometric and topological graph theory - Computational topology of graphs on surfaces - Graph representations - Geometric advances and computing in graph drawing - Combinatorics and optimization in graph drawing *TRACK2 :* Experimental, applied, and network visualization aspects This track is mainly devoted to the *practical aspects of graph drawing*, such as experimental evaluations of graph drawing related algorithms, the development and/or evaluation of related libraries and tools, or systems and interfaces in different application areas. We aim at covering a diverse set of topics, which for this track includes (but is not limited to): - Engineering of graph drawing algorithms and network visualization systems - Interfaces, methods, and high-quality tools for interacting with graphs and networks - Benchmarks and experimental studies in the context of graph drawing and network visualization - Cognitive studies on network visualization aesthetics and user interaction - Visualization of networks in real world applications - Machine learning methods in graph drawing & network visualization - Graph drawing & network visualization for AI explainability Authors of accepted papers in this track are encouraged to show a demo of their software/system during the poster session. *SHORT PAPERS* In addition to the above two tracks, there will be a separate track for short papers. Here we welcome smaller and less elaborate contributions on relevant topics. Papers in this category will be assigned a shorter time for presentation during the conference. *REMOTE PRESENTATIONS* For authors who cannot present their paper in person we offer the possibility for remote presentation, which must be declared at submission time. Authors of accepted papers in this category have to register for the conference. Papers in this category are evaluated and selected by the program committee by applying the same high standards as for the other tracks. In addition, the authors have to submit a recording of their presentation two weeks after the submission of the paper. The remote submission chair can influence the score of papers in this track based on the quality of the recorded talk and even reject submissions if the quality of the recorded talk is inappropriate. There is a limit of six remote presentations. *POSTERS & CONTEST* Submissions of posters on graph drawing, network visualization, and related areas are solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the communication of late-breaking research results (which may also appear elsewhere) to the GD community. Authors of posters should prepare an abstract that must be submitted together with the poster itself. Each submission will thus consist of two pdf files (the abstract and the poster). Details about the traditional *Graph Drawing Contest*, which is held at the conference, are provided at the website <https://mozart.diei.unipg.it/gdcontest/2025/>. ================================================================ RULES FOR SUBMISSION Results that have been previously published (or are scheduled for publication) in another conference proceedings or journal, as well as simultaneous submissions of results to other conferences with published proceedings or journals are not permitted, except for poster submissions. With the exception of remote presentations, each paper or poster must be presented at the conference by an author, otherwise the paper can be excluded from publication in the proceedings. ChatGPT and similar large language models may be used to improve the paper’s language, but its use should be mentioned as a footnote and the authors remain responsible for the full paper. In particular, the unattributed use of any such tools in the creation of the paper’s scientific content is forbidden. *SUBMISSION FORMAT* The proceedings will be published in the LIPIcs <https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publishing/series/details/lipics> series. To facilitate the process, submissions have to be prepared in accordance with the LIPIcs author instructions <https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/LIPIcs#author>, the page provides links to the LIPIcs class file along with an example and detailed author instructions. For the submission, the use of the LaTeX class file gd-lipics-v2.cls <https://graphdrawing.github.io/gd2025/assets/template/gd-lipics-v2.cls> is requested. The class file is a wrapper around the standard LIPIcs class and implements line counting, see CG-linecount.pdf <https://www.computational-geometry.org/guidelines/linecount_2022_09_19.pdf> for details. Submissions must not exceed the following limits: - 500 lines for full papers, - 225 lines for short papers, - 80 lines for posters’ abstracts. The above limits do not include front matter (title, authors, and affiliations), references, or appendices. The class files provide line counting which should be accurate in most cases. Authors should avoid substantial amounts of text in unnumbered lines. In addition, the main content of the paper must not exceed the following page limits excluding references: - 15 pages for long papers, - 7 pages for short papers, - 3 pages posters’ abstracts. The claims of full and short papers should be fully substantiated. If this information does not fit within the line limit, the authors should include it in a clearly marked appendix, whose length is not constrained and which the reviewers may read at their own discretion. For poster submissions, no appendix is expected. We also encourage authors to avoid "et al." in citations in favor of an equal mention of the surnames of all authors. For references with few authors, it is recommended to name all of them; if the number of authors is large, consider writing "(It is shown that) X [#]" or "The authors in [#] show that X" instead of "A et al. [#] show that X". *PAPER SUBMISSION, PROCEEDINGS AND SPECIAL ISSUE* Papers should be submitted electronically via Easychair <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gd2025>. The proceedings will be published in the *Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs)* series and are available open access. Selected papers from Track 1 and Track 2 will be invited for submission to a special issue of the *Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications (JGAA)*. The authors of two selected papers in Track 2 will be invited to submit a substantially extended and enhanced version of their work to *IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG)*. A special TVCG papers session at the Graph Drawing conference will also feature regular TVCG papers. Further details can be found at https://www.computer.org/digital-library/journals/tvcg/tvcg-partners-with-c… ================================================================ LIGHTWEIGHT DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEW PROCESS The review process of regular and short papers will be handled in a lightweight double-blind mode. This means that authors are not allowed to reveal their identity in the submitted paper, but are free to disseminate draft versions of the paper prior to the conference and to give talks on the topic as they normally would. In particular, the submitted paper should not contain the authors’ names, affiliations, and email addresses. References to their own related work are allowed, as long as the supporting text maintains anonymity (e.g., using sentences in the third person). Members of the Program Committee will not have the identity of the authors of any paper revealed to them during the entire review process. To handle conflicts of interest effectively, authors will be required to declare conflicts of interest with PC members when they submit their paper. Poster submissions will be evaluated by the Program Committee in a single-blind mode. In particular, the submitted abstract should contain the authors’ names, affiliations, and email addresses. ================================================================ AWARDS For each of the two tracks, the Program Committee of GD 2025 will bestow a Best Paper Award. In addition, to recognize the effort of participants to present their work and to prepare their posters in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Presentation Award and a Best Poster Award voted on by the GD 2025 attendees. ================================================================ ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Andreas Kerren, Linköping University, Sweden (general co-chair) Kostiantyn Kucher, Linköping University, Sweden (general co-chair) Claudio Linhares, Linnaeus University, Sweden (PhD school chair) Nico Reski, Linköping University, Sweden (Decision Arena chair) Zeyang Huang, Linköping University, Sweden (web chair) ================================================================ PROGRAM COMMITTEE Alessio Arleo, TU Eindhoven, Netherlands Michael Bekos, University of Ioannina, Greece Markus Chimani, University of Osnabrück, Germany Éric Colin de Verdière, CNRS, LIGM, Marne-la-Vallée, France Giordano Da Lozzo, Roma Tre University, Italy Sara Di Bartolomeo, TU Wien, Austria Vida Dujmovic, University of Ottawa, Canada (program co-chair) Henry Förster, TU Munich, Germany Fabrizio Frati, Roma Tre University, Italy Robert Ganian, TU Wien, Austria Daniel Gonçalves, CNRS & University of Montpellier, France Siddharth Gupta, BITS Pilani, K K Birla Goa Campus, India Thekla Hamm, TU Eindhoven, Netherlands Takayuki Itoh, Ochanomizu University, Japan Philipp Kindermann, Trier University, Germany Stephen Kobourov, TU Munich, Germany Kostiantyn Kucher, Linköping University, Sweden Silvia Miksch, TU Wien, Austria Fabrizio Montecchiani, University of Perugia, Italy (program co-chair) Pat Morin, Carleton University, Canada Tamara Mchedlidze, Utrecht University, Netherlands Giacomo Ortali, University of Perugia, Italy Sergey Pupyrev, Meta, USA Marcus Schaefer, DePaul University, USA Raphael Steiner, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Andrew Suk, University of California San Diego, USA Antonios Symvonis, National Technical University of Athens, Greece Csaba D.

Call for posters SCA 2025

by Eurographics Mailing List

The 24th annual ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA) will take place in Vancouver Canada from August 8 to August 10. https://computeranimation.org/instructions.html The deadline for poster submission is June 15, 2025 (23:59 AoE) SCA is the premier forum for innovations in the software and technology of computer animation. It unites researchers and practitioners working on all aspects of time-based phenomena. Our focused, intimate gathering, with a single track program and emphasis on community interaction, makes SCA the best venue to exchange research results, get inspired, and set up collaborations. We invite submission of original, high-quality papers and posters on computer animation, broadly defined as computation dealing with time-varying phenomena. The conference topics include: ● 2D, 3D, and N-D animation systems ● Autonomous agents ● Clothing animation and simulation ● Computational design of animated systems ● Expressive motion / communication ● Generative and morphable models ● 3D and 4D motion modeling ● Learned character control ● Facial animation ● Feature learning of motions, faces, body shapes and hand gestures ● Foundation models for animation ● Group and crowd behavior ● Interactive computer graphics ● Intuitive interfaces for creating and editing animations ● Mathematical foundations of animation ● Methods of control and artistic direction of simulations ● Machine learning techniques for animation ● Multimodal techniques for animation ● Modeling and simulation of natural phenomena ● Nature in motion (natural phenomena, plants, clouds, etc.) ● New time-based art forms on the computer ● Novel time-varying phenomena ● Perceptual metrics of animation ● Physical realism / measuring the real world for animation ● Physical simulation ● Fluid animation and simulation ● Planning / learning / optimization for animation ● Real-time and interactive methods ● Camera control methods for computer animation ● Sound and speech for animation ● More As in previous years, the poster session will be part of the SCA program. However, the poster abstracts will not be included in the conference proceedings, thus providing more freedom for the authors to decide if they want to upload the posters as a timestamp or not. Note that as usual, a SCA poster does not preclude subsequent publication of a complete paper on the same topic by the same authors (however, a SCA poster by other authors is considered prior art and should be cited as such). Poster abstracts should be sent to the poster chair Alexandre Mercier-Aubin at alexandre.mercier-aubin(a)etsmtl.ca Submissions must be camera-ready, with author names and affiliations listed. The review process will be single-blind. Poster abstract submissions should consist of a PDF paper according to the ACM article format. Submissions are permitted to be up to two pages in length, written and presented in English. Supplementary material such as videos may also be submitted electronically and will be made available to reviewers. All supplementary materials must be submitted as a single zip file (size up to 500MB). Registration: To meet the cost of the conference, one full registration is required for each accepted paper and poster. See you at SCA in Vancouver, Alexandre Mercier-Aubin SCA 2025 Posters Chair

Call for Papers VCBM 2025

by Eurographics Mailing List

Dear Colleagues, We are happy to announce that the annual Eurographics Symposium on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine (EG VCBM) will be hosted by TU Delft, Netherlands, on October 2-3, 2025. Note that all accepted full papers and survey papers will be published as journal publications in Computers and Graphics! == Aims and Scope == Work presented at the Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine EG VCBM [http://vcbm.org/] should reflect the state of the art in visual computing and its applications in biology and medicine. VCBM’s scope encompasses all aspects of visual computing research, technological development, and practices in medicine and life sciences. Relevant topics include the acquisition, processing, visualization, and interpretation of image data in biology and medicine, and the visual analysis and communication of life science data. == Submission types for VCBM 2025 == Submissions for this year’s meeting include short, full, and survey papers. Please see the previous Computers & Graphics special issue [ https://www.sciencedirect.com/special-issue/10S5T4911MR] and previous EG VCBM proceedings [https://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/463] for examples of published papers. We encourage authors to provide supporting information in the form of video and other media. The deadline for full and survey paper submissions is May 2, 2025. Please note that this is one month earlier than in previous years. Furthermore, all accepted full papers and surveys will be featured in a special issue of the journal Computers & Graphics (C&G), necessitating a significantly advanced submission deadline. Full Papers should describe original, application-oriented research that advances the fusion of visual computing methods within medicine and biology. Accepted work will focus on a well-defined biological or medical problem and demonstrate significant innovation or improvement in visual computing. Surveys are long-form submissions addressing new and emerging topics in visual computing, biology, and medicine. == Topics == All aspects relating to the development, application, and practices of visual computing in the life sciences are relevant to the meeting. These include: * Visual computing solutions designed for use by medical, biomedical, and biological practitioners, researchers, and educators. * The use of eXtended Reality (e.g., for surgical procedures, molecular visualization, rehabilitation, and therapy). * Approaches for processing, visual analysis, and communication of data from new or challenging modalities (e.g., real-time ultrasound, CyTOF, Spectroscopy, layer fMRI, single-cell and spatial-omics, environmental monitoring). * Visual computing approaches incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and explainable AI (XAI). Including but not limited to XAI methods and approaches designed for clinical support on individual and cohort electronic health records * Visual computing solutions that support new approaches for modeling and simulation with applications in medicine and biology. * Workflows and processes leveraging visual computing to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration in biology and medicine. * Visualization and visual storytelling methods designed to communicate healthcare data to patients and laymen, supporting diagnoses interpretation and doctor-patient relationship We encourage the use of digital videos to support all submissions. Please use only the most common video codecs, such as MP4 H.264, to maximize the chances that the reviewers can view them. == 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 C&G LaTeX style [1], including all images and references). Papers should only be as long as their content justifies. 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. Authors have to anonymize their submissions. Please follow the instructions [2] in the guide for authors of Computers & Graphics. [1] https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/elsarticle.zip [2] https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/computers-and-graphics/publish/guide-… == Surveys == We do not impose strict maximum lengths for papers submitted to the survey track. However, it is unusual for surveys to exceed 20 pages (in C&G LaTeX style [3], including all images and references). Authors are encouraged to use supplementary material, such as videos, to provide extra content. Authors have to anonymize their submissions. Please follow the instructions [3] in the guide for authors of Computers & Graphics. [3] https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/elsarticle.zip [4] https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/computers-and-graphics/publish/guide-… == Short Paper & Posters == EG VCBM 2025 will also feature a short paper track and a poster and demos program, the details of which will be announced in a separate call. == Submission Instructions == Full and survey papers must be submitted using the Editorial Manager for Computers & Graphics [5]. Please note that, in contrast to previous years, we are introducing a mandatory abstract submission (similar to EuroVis or VIS conferences) where the authors are required to submit the paper abstract one week prior to the submission deadline. For abstract submission, the SRM [6] system needs to be used. This means you have to use two systems for your submission: SRM for abstract submission and Editorial Manager for Computers & Graphics for full paper submission. The same applies to Surveys. Instructions regarding the submission process can be found on our website [7]. We remark that submitting a paper without prior abstract submission will lead to desk rejection. [5] https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx [6] https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/ [7] https://conferences.eg.org/vcbm2025/contribute/full-survey-papers/ == Important Dates (full papers and survey papers) == * Abstract submission (NEW): April 25, 2025 * Submission deadline: May 2, 2025 * Author notification (1st cycle): June 4, 2025 * Revision due (1st cycle): July 2, 2025 * Author notification (2nd cycle): August 1, 2025 * Minor Revision due (2nd cycle): August 22, 2025 * Final notification: September 5, 2025 * Camera-ready deadline: September 26, 2025 * Workshop: October 2 & 3, 2025 All deadlines are at 23:59 AoE (Anywhere on Earth).

SGP 2025 - Call for Papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

Dear colleague, We are writing to remind you that the second SGP 2025 papers deadline is in three weeks. Please consider that a paper submitted to the first deadline and rejected can be resubmitted to the second one. All accepted papers will appear in the same Computer Graphics Forum special issue, independently of the deadline they were submitted by. The Eurographics Symposium on Geometry Processing (SGP) 2025 will be held in Bilbao (Basque Country / Spain) on 30 June - 4 July, 2025. The SGP graduate school will offer tutorials taught by leading experts on 30 June - 1 July. Conference website: https://sgp2025.my.canva.site/ Call for papers SGP is the premier venue for disseminating research ideas and cutting-edge results in geometry processing. In this research area, concepts from mathematics, computer science, and engineering are developed and applied to offer insights into and to design efficient algorithms for acquisition, modeling, analysis, manipulation, simulation, and other types of processing of 3D models and shape collections. We invite submissions related to, but not limited to, the following topics: * Acquisition and reconstruction * Analysis and fabrication for 3D printing * Architectural geometry * Computational geometry * Differentiable rendering * Discrete differential geometry * Exploration of shape collections * Geometry and topology data structures and representations * Geometry compression * Geometric deep learning * Geometric representations for machine learning * Geometry processing applications * Interactive techniques * Meshing and remeshing * Multiresolution modeling * Multimodal shape processing * Neural shape representations * Point cloud acquisition and processing * Processing of massive geometric datasets * Shape analysis and synthesis * Simulation and animation * Smoothing, filtering, and denoising * Surface and volume parameterization and deformation Dataset Papers SGP encourages submission of dataset papers to the technical papers program. Geometric datasets play a critical role in evaluating the behavior of geometric algorithms, and in recent years they have provided challenging examples that have driven the field forward. We seek papers that build on this success by providing, documenting, and discussing datasets with larger, more challenging examples than those seen before—or datasets that capture new challenges in geometry processing. The SGP proceedings will appear as a regular electronic issue of Computer Graphics Forum, the International Journal of the EUROGRAPHICS Association. 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. [NEW THIS YEAR] For its 2025 edition, SGP uses a double deadline format to provide more researchers with enough time to obtain a visa to attend the conference without penalizing authors who may want to submit to our usual mid-Spring deadline. Authors who choose to submit by the first deadline will receive a notification of acceptance in mid March, and can readily register to the conference and apply for a visa. A paper submitted to the first deadline and rejected can be resubmitted to the second one.

Call for Contributions: Bio+MedVis Challenge @ IEEE VIS 2025

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for Contributions: Bio+MedVis Challenge @ IEEE VIS 2025 Interested in some hands-on practice with visualizing biological and/or medical data? The 2025 Bio+MedVis Challenge @ IEEE VIS is now live (http://biovis.net/2025/biovisChallenges_vis/) and is a great opportunity to explore and ideate on new, exciting ways to visualize data from biology and medicine! This year, we have two exciting challenges: 1) A redesign of magnetic resonance spectroscopy data, which is a promising modality to visualize subtle chemical changes in, for instance, your brain, but is very abstract and tough to understand in its usual presentation. Redesigns can be sketches/prototypes or full-blown interactive solutions. 2) A larger challenge to develop visualization(s) facilitating the identification of cell-cell interactions in biological tissue from 3D microscopy imaging! Here, we are looking for solutions incorporating some degree of interactivity. To learn more about the challenges, submission guidelines, and any further details, see the challenge website: http://biovis.net/2025/biovisChallenges_vis/ The submission deadline is August 15, 2025. Please send a two-page PDF abstract with up to 5 additional figures. Submissions for either the redesign or the main challenge will be considered for talk or poster presentations during the Bio+MedVis session at the IEEE VIS 2025 conference. If you have any questions, reach out at biovis_challenge(a)ieeevis.org <mailto:biovis_challenge@ieeevis.org> Organizers: Laura Garrison, University of Bergen, Norway Katarína Furmanová, Masaryk University, Czech Republic Simon Warchol, Harvard University, USA
