Call for Papers to EGSR 2023

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for Papers to EGSR 2023 This year, EGSR features two paper submission tracks: the Research Track and the Industry Track. Research Track The Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2023 will take place from Wed, Jun 28, 2023 to Fri, Jun 30, at TU Delft,in Delft, the Netherlands. This 34th event continues the series of highly successful Eurographics Symposia and Workshops on Rendering. All accepted research papers will be presented at EGSR 2023 and archived in the Eurographics digital library. Furthermore, a selection of them will be published in an issue of the Computer Graphics Forum (CGF) journal, based on both the recommendations of the reviewers and the outcome of a second cycle of review. We are looking for work that shapes the future of image synthesis in computer graphics and related fields, such as human perception, mixed and augmented reality, deep learning, and computational photography. There is no fixed minimum or maximum paper length. However, length must be proportional to contribution, and submissions over 12 pages in length will be treated as exceptional cases. For each submitted paper, a minimum of three reviews will be provided to the authors, who will then be able to provide a rebuttal to clarify misunderstandings and answer the reviewers’ questions. The reviewers will then discuss and decide on the acceptance of the paper to the EGSR 2023 program. In the event of acceptance, the authors will submit a revised version of their manuscript prior to the conference. All papers will be presented either in-person or virtually. An in-person event is currently planned, but virtual presentation will be allowed if required. Topics of interest We invite original contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in topics related, but not limited, to: * Physically-based rendering and global illumination * Monte Carlo sampling, reconstruction, and integration * Real-time rendering, including ray tracing, acceleration structures, and GPU algorithms * Rendering software systems * Specialized rendering hardware systems * Inverse and differentiable rendering * Image processing for rendering and compositing, such as denoising, matting, deblurring, colorization * Image manipulation, such as warping, inpainting, relighting * Machine learning for rendering, rendering for machine learning * Deep generative models of image synthesis * Neural representation for rendering * Material and scattering models * Acquisition, modeling, and fabrication of geometry, appearance, and illumination * Color science, spectral modeling and rendering * Face and human capture and rendering * Computational photography, optics, and displays * Image-based rendering (IBR), lightfields * Expressive/Non-Photorealistic rendering (NPR) * Vector graphics and other non-pixel-based rendering formats * Procedural modeling, texturing, and simulation * Augmented/virtual/mixed reality, including rendering, input, and output technologies * Human perception on rendering * Scientific visualization, e.g. large-scale data visualization and volume rendering * Audio/sound rendering How to Submit Your Work Please submit your work using the SRM online submission system. The submission should use the EGSR 2023 LaTeX template available on SRM (first create an account on the SRM system to download the template). Important dates (All times are midnight, 23:59 UTC) * Abstract deadline: Wed, Apr 5 * Papers deadline: Wed, Apr 12 * Reviews released to authors: Mon, May 15 * Rebuttals due: Fri, May 19 * Author notification: Fri, May 26 * Final papers due: Fri, Jun 9 * Final notification (CGF): Fri, Jun 9 * Conference: Wed, Jun 28–Fri 30, Jun Industry Track The Eurographics Symposium on Rendering (EGSR) 2023 includes an Industry Track that includes invited papers from our colleagues in industry that are on topics of interest to the general rendering community. The goal of this track is to provide an accessible venue for getting out ideas that have found practical use in industry and could impact the future of rendering research, but might not meet the standards/expectations of scientific evaluation expected in formal research papers. These papers will be curated by the paper co-chairs and will be presented in the conference along with the traditional research papers. We are looking for papers that present ideas and applications of rendering (both high-end and real-time), as well as other aspects of image synthesis (e.g., image-based rendering, rendering for AR/VR, machine learning for rendering, etc.). Topics for possible Industry Track papers could include, but are not limited to: * Novel rendering ideas that are interesting and already successfully used in practice but might not be developed to the point of a formal research paper * Extensions or twists on existing rendering algorithms that have been found to produce better results in practice * A description of a state-of-the-art rendering pipeline or software/hardware system * A new dataset that would facilitate research in rendering * Position papers that pose interesting problems found in industry rendering applications that should be more emphasized in academic research Papers accepted in this Industry Track will be published in the Eurographics Digital Library for archival purposes and presented at EGSR 2023. Note that all papers will be presented either in-person or virtually. An in-person conference is planned, but in-person attendance by authors won’t be mandatory. Industry track paper submissions can be directly sent to the program chairs via email to chairs-egsr2023(a)eg.org <mailto:chairs-egsr2023@eg.org> Submission Policy Plagiarism A submission to EGSR 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, as well as other posts on the World Wide Web. Failure to comply with this requirement will be considered plagiarism and result in rejection. See “Anonymity” below for instructions about unpublished work by the same authors. 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 before the EGSR submission deadline. 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 prepublications? 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 prepublications imposes an unreasonable burden: a seemingly relevant report that is incomplete in its disclosure or validation might appear online shortly before the deadline. While 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 prepublications (arXiv, technical reports, theses, etc.), although they must properly cite those that inspired them (see “Plagiarism” above). We nevertheless 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 prepublications in their final revision as concurrent work, without the burden of having to detail how their work compares to or differs from these prepublications. Anonymity The EGSR review process is fully double-blind: the reviewers do not know the identity of the authors, and the authors do not know the identity of the reviewers. This anonymity is an integral part of an objective and fair review process, so authors are required to take all reasonable measures to preserve their anonymity. Below, we discuss specific situations in which authors may have to mention their own publications and how to handle such disclosures in the context of an EGSR submission. Before Submission When citing already published work by the same (or an overlapping) group of authors, the citation should refer to that work in the third person, just as it would refer to any other previously published work by a completely different set of authors. For other relevant work from the same author(s) as the submission, we distinguish between two cases: (A) works that have been submitted for publication elsewhere, but have some relevance to and/or overlap with the submission; and (B) largely overlapping prepublications that are available online at the time of submission (arXiv, technical report, thesis, etc.). For case (A), the other work should be cited anonymously, as well as provided as anonymous supplementary material. The authors must convince the reviewers that the current submission is sufficiently different from the other work, which can be done using an anonymous cover letter that outlines the differences. For case (B), namely earlier or largely similar versions of the submission that are publicly available (on arXiv, as a technical report, etc.) are NOT to be cited in the submission, as this would identify the authors. Instead, these prepublications must be listed in the submission form, upload field “Preprint.” This field is not visible to reviewers. After Submission Blatant violations of anonymity are not acceptable. However, we also recognize that prepublications and talks have become part of the scientific discourse, and EGSR allows these means of communication. Specifically, before the final acceptance decision is made: Authors must not discuss the research described in submitted EGSR papers with the media. Media includes editors/journalists/writers/interviewers of newspapers, radio, television, magazines, as well as public relations and media arms of companies, universities, and other research institutions. After submitting to EGSR, authors may archive the submission without mentioning EGSR as an institutional tech report or on arXiv or a similar service. Authors must not make any posts to social media or elsewhere that can be linked to a specific EGSR submission (e.g., mentioning the title of the submission (or details and content) and saying that it is an EGSR submission). Authors may talk about their work in a presentation without saying it is submitted to EGSR. Authors may mention their submission(s) as under review at EGSR as part of the written materials submitted for job and funding applications. Authors may talk about the research involved in their submission in talks given for these purposes as well, without mentioning EGSR. How to Submit Your Work Please email the program chairs at chairs-egsr2023(a)eg.org <mailto:chairs-egsr2023@eg.org> with a PDF of your paper submission with the subject “Industry Track Submission” by the deadline below. The chairs will then curate the industry track program from the submitted papers and provide feedback to the authors. We expect that most papers will be fairly short (around 1-4 pages) although authors can submit longer ones if necessary to describe their idea. Important dates (All times are midnight, 23:59 UTC) * Industry Track papers deadline: Thu, May 25 * Author notification: Fri, Jun 2 * Final papers due: Mon, Jun 26 Program chairs * Tobias Ritschel, University College London * Andrea Weidlich, Nvidia Conference chair * Elmar Eisemann, TU Delft

SHREC2023 call for track proposals

by Eurographics Mailing List

The general objective of the 3D Shape Retrieval Challenge is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D-shape retrieval algorithms. <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fsites.google.com%2Fview%2F3dor20 23%2Fshrec2023&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AOvVaw2FP14szlBN91Fa_G70DSZm> SHREC2023 is the eighteenth 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. 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, and 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.

Eurographics Symposium on Geometry Processing (SGP) 2023 Call for Papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

The Eurographics Symposium on Geometry Processing 2023 will be held in Genova, Italy on 3-5 July, 2023. The SGP graduate school will offer tutorials taught by leading experts on 1-2 July. 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. Conference website: https://sgp2023.github.io/ Paper submission via the Submission and Review Management (SRMv2) system: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/SGP_2023> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/SGP_2023 Timeline: (Recommended) Abstract submission April 7, 2023, 23:59 UTC Paper submission April 12, 2023, 23:59 UTC Notification of acceptance May 31, 2023 Revised version due June 9, 2023, 23:59 UTC Camera ready due June 20, 2023, 23:59 UTC Graduate School July 1-2, 2023 Conference July 3–5, 2023 All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC/GMT.

Eurographics 2023 - Call for Short Papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for Short Papers Authors are invited to submit short papers up to 4 pages (including bibliography). Eurographics Short Papers program presents compact but self-contained work on all areas related to computer graphics, such as rendering, modeling, visualization, animation, simulation, virtual and augmented reality, image processing, computational photography, computational fabrication, and machine learning methods in computer graphics. We particularly invite submissions which present tangible and practically useful improvements to the state of the art, 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. The program helps these papers be easily referenced in the literature. 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 * Dec. 20, 2022: Submission deadline * Feb. 17, 2023: Notification * Mar. 23, 2023: Camera-ready * Apr. 12, 2023: Video and Fast-Forward video due * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC SUBMISSION DETAILS Submissions will be made electronically through the Eurographics <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2023S> 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_2023S/GetConferenceFile?fileID=143 76> SRM system). Please remember to enable line numbering for an easier reviewing process. 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 (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 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 Given the page limit, Short Papers is not the most appropriate venue for publishing works that require extensive comparison with a crowded state-of-the-art. However, authors are expected to cite, discuss differences and novelty, and compare results, if applicable, with respect to the most 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. DOUBLE SUBMISSION POLICY By submitting a manuscript to the Eurographics Short 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. EUROGRAPHICS'2023 SHORT PAPERS CHAIRS Vahid Babaei, MPI Informatics, Germany Melina Skouras, Inria, France For any question concerning short paper submissions please contact the short papers program co-chairs: <mailto:chairs-eg2023short@eg.org> chairs-eg2023short(a)eg.org

Authors are encouraged to use supplementary documents to provide extra content. Papers exceeding the maximum allowed number of pages will be automatically rejected. Submissions must be made using the Computer Graphics Forum style, using the conference LaTeX template for full papers which includes a sample document explaining the required format. Please download the template from <https://conferences.eg.org/eurovis2023/for-submitters/full-papers/> https://conferences.eg.org/eurovis2023/for-submitters/full-papers/. Authors have the option to submit their papers anonymously. In contrast to previous years, double-blind reviewing is optional, not required: authors may choose to disclose their identities to the reviewers. The reviewing process does not consider anonymity as a factor. The process will attempt to preserve anonymity of authors of anonymized submissions. However, the program committee, which is responsible for half of the reviews, will know the authors of submissions reviewed by them. Authors have the option of submitting additional material with their submissions. Supplementary materials, such as videos and supporting data, are encouraged. For papers that have previously been reviewed for other venues and have been rejected or withdrawn, the authors are strongly encouraged to provide the original submission with a cover letter describing the changes they have made to comply with reviewers' comments and requests. All full papers accepted to EuroVis appear in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, containing the conference proceedings, and will appear at the same time in the Eurographics digital library. EuroVis submissions and papers are subject to the pre-print and self-archiving policies of the Computer Graphics Forum journal. Details are available from the journal web site: <https://authorservices.wiley.com/author-resources/Journal-Authors/open-acce ss/preprints-policy.html> https://authorservices.wiley.com/author-resources/Journal-Authors/open-acces s/preprints-policy.html Given the uncertainty due to the pandemic, further details will be communicated regarding possible Open Access charges. In addition, a video presentation of all full papers accepted to EuroVis is required ahead of the conference. Abstracts and full papers are submitted using the Precision Conference System (PCS): <https://new.precisionconference.com/eurovis23a> https://new.precisionconference.com/eurovis23a. Please select Society: Eurographics, Conference/Journal: EuroVis 2023, Track: EuroVis 2023 Papers. Submission of an abstract is mandatory by the abstract deadline, with completed papers due by the full paper deadline. Submissions will not be accepted if an abstract is not submitted by the abstract deadline. Abstract submissions require the title, authors, paper type, abstract, and keywords in the form. The remaining fields (the document, additional material) are submitted by the full paper deadline. Please note that EuroVis accepted papers are published as a regular-length journal article, so submitting just an abstract is not sufficient. Submitters need to choose keywords and categories appropriate for their paper as this information is used in reviewer selection. ------------------ Full Papers Chairs ------------------ Daniel Archambault, Swansea University, UK Roxana Bujack, Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA Tobias Schreck, Graz University of Technology, Austria For any questions concerning full paper submissions please contact the full paper chairs at: fullpapers(at)eurovis.org.

PhD Position Visual Analytics for Fine Arts Analysis and Simulation at TU Delft

by Eurographics Mailing List

Fully funded PhD Position Visual Analytics for Fine Arts Analysis and Simulation The <http://graphics.tudelft.nl/> Computer Graphics and Visualization (CGV) group at the <https://www.tudelft.nl/en/eemcs/the-faculty/> Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS), <https://www.tudelft.nl/> TU Delft invites applications for full-time doctoral candidates in the area of Visualization and Visual Analytics in Fine-Art analysis. The successful candidate will work together with collaborators from the department of Material Science and Engineering at TU Delft and the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam on novel visualization and visual analytics methods, as well as visual workflows. Topics include the identification of pigments or layering structures in historical paintings, the reasoning on the aging process of these pigments, and the simulation of different lighting conditions. For this, we will work with hyperspectral and other high-dimensional imaging data modalities. Besides workflows and design of visual representations, the project will provide different opportunities to work on methodological improvements for the analysis of this data. An example is the adaptation of dimensionality reduction algorithms for information visualization or the improvement of the acquisition process by (partially) predicting modalities using machine learning methods. The CGV group investigates realistic, perceptual, and expressive rendering, visualization of scientific and medical data, interaction and game technologies, and modelling of 3D content. Our goal is to develop methods to produce virtual worlds and provide high-quality display solutions efficiently and effectively. We aim for solutions to produce instructive illustrations with real-world applications (e.g., medical visualization, or flooding simulations) and make use of perceptual findings to increase the effectiveness of the displayed information. Our work is often multi-disciplinary and combines aspects of various fields, such as physics, parallel programming, algorithms, perception, or numerical methods. Full details and the application procedure can be found here <https://www.tudelft.nl/over-tu-delft/werken-bij-tu-delft/vacatures/details?…> .
