Eurographics 2008 Workshop on 3D object retrieval

by Stefanie Behnke

Eurographics 2008 Workshop on 3D object retrieval (http://www.iit.demokritos.gr/~egw3dor/) April 15, 2008 Crete, GREECE 3D object representations have become an integral part of modern computer graphics applications, such as computer-aided design, game development and film production. At the same time, 3D data have become very common in domains such as computer vision, computational geometry, molecular biology and medicine. The rapid evolution in graphics hardware and software development, in particular the availability of low cost 3D scanners, has greatly facilitated 3D model acquisition, creation and manipulation, giving the opportunity to experience applications using 3D models to a large user community. As the number of 3D models is continuously growing fast the problem of creating new 3D models has shifted to the problem of searching for existing 3D models. Thereupon, the development of efficient search mechanisms is required for the effective retrieval of 3D objects from large repositories, both of a single class (such as human faces) and across classes. The aim of this workshop is to stimulate researchers from different fields (computer vision, computer graphics, machine learning and human-computer interaction) who work on the common goal of 3D object retrieval, to present state-of-the-art work in the field and thus provide a cross-fertilization ground that will stimulate discussions on the next steps in this important research area. Topics Topics of interest include but are not limited to : o Invariant 2D / 3D feature extraction o Biologically inspired 3D representations o Mesh segmentation o Relevance feedback o Active learning o Ontology-driven search o Generative / Discriminative approaches in 3D object categorization o Indexing methodologies o Applications in Multimedia industry, CAD industry, Games industry, Biometrics, e-Science, e-Learning, Medicine, Culture. o Benchmarking issues The proceedings of the Workshop will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series and on the Eurographics Digital Library. The authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions for publication in a peer-reviewed Journal. Important Dates Submission deadline: Monday, January 7th, 2008 (24:00 GMT) Notification of acceptance: Monday, February 11th, 2008 Camera-ready papers deadline: Monday, February 25th, 2008 Workshop: Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 (one full day) Organisation Workshop Chairs Ioannis Pratikakis ( IIT / NCSR 'Demokritos', Greece ) Theoharis Theoharis ( University of Athens, Greece ) Programme Chairs Stavros Perantonis ( IIT / NCSR 'Demokritos', Greece ) Nikolaos Sapidis (University of the Aegean, Greece ) Michela Spagnuolo ( IMATI / CNR, Italy ) Daniel Thalmann (EPFL, Switzerland ) EG Proceedings Editors Ioannis Pratikakis ( IIT / NCSR 'Demokritos', Greece ) Michela Spagnuolo ( IMATI / CNR, Italy ) Theoharis Theoharis ( University of Athens, Greece ) International Programme Committee Philipos Azariadis (University of the Aegean, Greece ) Alberto Del Bimbo (University of Florence, Italy ) Petros Daras (Informatics and Telematics Institute, Greece ) Bianca Falcidieno (IMATI / CNR, Italy ) Dieter W.

IEEE/EG Symposium on Point-Based Graphics The IEEE/Eurographics Symposium on Point-Based Graphics (PBG) is a forum for presenting new results related to the use of point-based primitives in modeling, rendering, data acquisition, simulation, geometry, and graphics hardware. IEEE/EG International Symposium on Volume Graphics Volume Graphics (VG07) follows five successful workshops in former years. It aims to bring together researchers from both the academic and industry who are working, or wish to work, on volume graphics. Volume Graphics is concerned with modeling, processing, and rendering of data which is typically acquired through tomography, 3D microscopy, computational simulations, statistical measurements or analytical methods.

IEEE/EG Symposium on Point-Based Graphics The IEEE/Eurographics Symposium on Point-Based Graphics (PBG) is a forum for presenting new results related to the use of point-based primitives in modeling, rendering, data acquisition, simulation, geometry, and graphics hardware. IEEE/EG International Symposium on Volume Graphics Volume Graphics (VG07) follows five successful workshops in former years. It aims to bring together researchers from both the academic and industry who are working, or wish to work, on volume graphics. Volume Graphics is concerned with modeling, processing, and rendering of data which is typically acquired through tomography, 3D microscopy, computational simulations, statistical measurements or analytical methods. It is capable of representing solid and soft objects, interiors as well as surfaces, and synthesizing graphical images in a true 3D manner. The symposium will continue to explore the potential of volume-based techniques beyond the scope of volume visualization as it is currently practiced.
