Expressive 2016 Call for Papers Reminder
Date: May 79, 2016
Location: Lisbon, Portugal
URL: <http://expressive.graphics/2016/> http://expressive.graphics/2016/
Co-sponsored by: ACM SIGGRAPH and Eurographics
Abstract submission deadline: February 1, 2016
Paper submission deadline: February 7, 2016
Acceptance notification: March 13, 2016
Expressive 2016 is a joint symposium that includes
* Computational Aesthetics (CAe)
<http://expressive.graphics/2016/CAe/Home> ,
* <http://expressive.graphics/2016/NPAR/Home> Non-Photorealistic
Animation and Rendering (NPAR), and
* <http://expressive.graphics/2016/SBIM/Home> Sketch-Based Interfaces
and Modelling (SBIM).
The conference will take place in Lisbon, Portugal, May 79, 2016, and it
will be co-located with the <http://eurographics2016.pt/> Eurographics 2016
conference. A single registration for Expressive 2016 will include all three
symposia.
Invited talks and artists talks will be shared among the conferences and
sessions will be mixed. The submission, review, and publication process for
the event will be handled jointly across the three conferences. Each paper
submission should be designated as belonging to one of the three tracks.
Computational Aesthetics
Computational Aesthetics (CAe) bridges the analytic and synthetic by
integrating aspects of computer science, philosophy, psychology, and the
fine, applied & performing arts. It seeks to facilitate both the analysis
and the augmentation of creative behaviors. CAe also investigates the
creation of tools that can enhance the expressive power of the fine and
applied arts and furthers our understanding of aesthetic evaluation,
perception, and meaning. The Computational Aesthetics conference brings
together individuals with technical experience of developing computer-based
tools to solve aesthetic problems and people with artistic/design
backgrounds who use these new tools and inform their design. Refereed
CAepapers and artworks aim to facilitate a dialog between scientists and
engineers, and also artists and designers. Presentations will provide a
snapshot of the latest technical breakthroughs and the most recent artistic
or design achievements in applying computer-based techniques to solve
aesthetic problems.
Technical submissions are invited across the broad range of areas covered by
Computational Aesthetics. Specific technical areas include, but are not
limited to:
* computational analysis and modeling of creative behavior (AI,
A-life)
* artistic image transformation techniques (colors, edges, patterns,
dithering)
* image style and salience analysis (paintings, photographs, others)
* visualization (perceptual, affective or aesthetics based)
* sketching, simplification techniques (artistic, cognitive)
* composition, visual balance, layout
* non-photorealistic and illustrative rendering addressing
computational aesthetics
* empirically based metrics of aesthetic attributes
* applied visual perception (color appearance, spatial vision, and
other aspects)
* measuring and describing aesthetics
* computational tools for artists
Successful submissions can, for example, describe novel technical approaches
that address one or more of the areas mentioned above (or beyond). However,
we are equally interested in papers that discuss the use of existing
techniques but combine them in an interesting new way or apply them in a new
context that addresses problems in computational aesthetics.
Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling
Advances in pen-based computer hardware have enabled digital sketch-based
interfaces to emerge as a powerful way to combine the quick and intuitive
feel of paper with the power of computation. However, fully realizing the
potential of these sketch-based systems requires effective input devices,
user interface design and underlying algorithms to analyze the input. The
goal of this symposium is to explore models, algorithms and technologies
needed to enable effective sketch-based interfaces. It investigates novel
methods for classification and recognition of hand-drawn shapes, and ways of
using these techniques for creating or editing digital models, text,
mathematics and 3D shapes. Likewise, the symposium explores the application
of sketch-based interfaces to 3D computer graphics, animation, CAD and
computer games, as well as other specific applications such as diagram
editing, note taking and novel input devices. Finally, the symposium
welcomes empirical user studies aimed at clarifying the nature of
sketch-based interfaces and comparing them to other interaction techniques.
Created in 2004, SBIM provides a unique venue for researchers, students and
practitioners interested in sketch-based techniques to interact with one
another, share lessons learned, show new results and discuss open issues.
Topic areas for SBIM 2016 include but are not limited to:
* Multimodal interfaces for sketching
* Novel sketch input and editing devices
* Novel pen-based interaction techniques
* Low level ink processing and pen stroke segmentation
* Sketch parsing, classification and recognition
* Sketch-based interfaces for CAD systems
* Sketch-based modeling and editing of 3D shapes
* Sketch-based control of animations
* Sketch-based interfaces for other applications (surface editing,
diagram creation, mathematical annotations, games, etc.)
* Rendering techniques for sketch-based systems (NPR)
* Sketches for medical and volume data editing
* Sketch-based retrieval of multimedia information
* Usability studies of sketch-based systems
* Studies of the impact of sketching on creativity and design
* Multi-touch interfaces and applications
Non-Photorealistic Animation and Rendering
Non-Photorealistic Animation and Rendering (NPAR) refers to computational
techniques for visual communication. Such techniques usually generate
imagery and motion which is expressive, rather than photorealistic, although
they may incorporate realistic elements.
We invite researchers, artists, and practitioners of all areas connected to
non-photorealistic animation and rendering to submit papers and posters on
their work. Submitted papers should be self-classified into one of the
following three categories:
Research: new algorithms, scientific studies, analysis, or data (i.e.,
traditional NPAR papers). These must contain novel results that make a
substantive contribution to the field.
Production: candid discussion of the process of creating a work (e.g., film,
image, game) or art tool (e.g., paint or CAD program, software library).
Meta: statements about research that do not contain new results, e.g.: grand
challenges, position papers, evaluation standards, surveys, and primers on
art / aesthetics / psychophysics for a computer science audience.
All work must be previously unpublished and contain a novel contribution.
Production and Meta papers need not contain original research or results.
Topic areas of NPAR 2016 include, but are not limited to:
* Expressive character animation and physics
* Abstraction and stylization of images/video
* Interaction techniques
* Accounts of real productions (e.g., animated films)
* NPAR in real software products (e.g., modeling, visualization,
presentation software)
* Visual composition
* Hardware acceleration
* Evaluation methods for NPAR algorithms
* Psychophysics of NPAR
* Rendering and layout for text and presentation graphics
* Quantitative analysis of human artists
* Generative or evolutionary approaches
* Style transfer
* Temporal and spatial coherence
* Adapting classic CG effects like motion blur, depth of field, and
lighting for NPAR
* Simulation of natural media and traditional styles
* Non-traditional camera models
* Position papers on grand challenges
Technical Paper Submissions

Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2016
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2016 will take place in Trinity
College, Dublin, Ireland, over 22-24 June 2016. This 27th event continues
the series of highly successful Eurographics Symposia and Workshops on
rendering. It will be co-located with Eurographics High Performance
Graphics, which will be held 20-22 June 2016.
With the success of the last year's submission process, the "Experimental
Ideas & Implementations" track will be maintained in addition to the
traditional EGSR papers track (the "CGF track"). Authors will have the
choice of submitting their work to the CGF track, the experimental track, or
both.
The CGF submission track will remain as is, continuing the long tradition of
disseminating state-of-the-art scientific results in rendering and related
fields. Accepted papers in this track will be published as an issue of
Computer Graphics Forum after a full peer review, including a rebuttal and a
second review cycle.
The "Experimental Ideas & Implementations" conference-papers track has as an
explicit goal to solicit submissions that describe either exciting new ideas
that have not yet been validated according to the high academic standard of
the CGF track, or interesting implementation issues for known algorithms in
industry-scale uses. The requirements on comparisons to related work,
citations, and quality of results are relaxed in exchange for key questions
such as the following. Is the idea stimulating and interesting? Would it
spark discussion and give valuable insights to the rendering community?
Papers in this track will undergo full double-blind peer review using its
own review form, and will be published in the EGSR conference proceedings
series and in the Eurographics Digital Library, but not the CGF journal.
There is no rebuttal or second review cycle. Consistent with common
practice, authors would have the opportunity to build upon the conference
paper, add comparisons and validation, and submit the work to a journal
later. Please see below for FAQ regarding the new track.
For both tracks, we are looking for work that shapes the future of rendering
and related fields. In particular, we encourage submission in the related
topics of appearance modeling, virtual/augmented reality, computational
displays, fabrication, and hardware architectures.
Neither track imposes a fixed maximum paper length. However, submissions
over 12 pages in length will be treated as exceptional cases, and length
must be proportional to contribution.
If a paper is submitted to both tracks, the reviewers will be initially left
oblivious of this fact. Of those papers rejected from the CGF track, the
chairs at their discretion may select the strongest of those papers and
submit them for an accelerated review to EI&I.
Core conference topics include (but are not limited to):
Global illumination
Real-time and offline rendering
Acquisition, modeling, and manipulation of light transport & appearance
Realistic, non-photorealistic, 2D, and 3D image processing & synthesis
Mathematical techniques for image synthesis
Computational photography/optics/displays
Image synthesis for augmented or virtual reality
Software and hardware systems/architectures for rendering
Audio/sound rendering
Important dates (applying to both CGF and EI&I tracks unless specifically
indicated):
Abstract deadline Monday 28 March 2016
Papers deadline Friday 1 April 2016
Reviews due Wednesday 4 May 2016
Rebuttal due Monday 9 May 2016 (CGF track)
Author notification Tuesday 17 May 2016
Final papers due Tuesday 24 May 2016
Final notification Friday 27 May 2016 (CGF track)
All times are 23:59 (midnight) UTC.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Experimental Ideas & Implementations
Track
Q: What's the process with the extended journal version?
A: Once you have a paper accepted in the new track and published in the
conference proceedings, many journals, CGF included, apply the rule by which
adding 30% new material and addressing any major issues that had precluded
journal publication would qualify the revised paper for consideration in the
journal. The authors should indicate the nature of the submission in a cover
letter.
In addition, the EGSR papers committee and CGF editors may, at their
discretion, invite select papers from the Experimental Ideas &
Implementations track to a fast-track second review cycle in Computer
Graphics Forum.
Q: Why would I submit to both tracks?
A: Should the committee decide your paper is not, in the form it was
submitted, suitable for the CGF track, it could then be forwarded to the
Experimental Ideas & Implementations track by the paper chairs. You, the
author, get a paper, valuable feedback, visibility for your ideas, and the
possibility of later extending your work into a journal paper if the work is
accepted in this second track.
However, if you feel your contribution clearly falls within the scope of the
Experimental Ideas & Implementations track but not the CGF track, please
only submit to the former. This makes the job of the reviewers and the
committee easier, which is of particular importance because the review
schedule is tight.
Q: What if my paper includes interesting system and implementation details
but less algorithmic or mathematical novelty?
A: We would love to consider your work for the Experimental Ideas &
Implementations track!
Q: What if I have an intriguing idea but I have no idea if it works or not,
or it only works in a certain special case?
A: We would love to consider your paper for the Experimental Ideas &
Implementations track! Come present it and we'll all talk about it together.
Q: Are Experimental Ideas & Implementations papers presented in separate
sessions?
A: No. In the spirit of promoting new and interesting ideas, all papers will
be presented alongside in sessions that fit their topic.

Call for Posters
Authors are invited to submit proposals for poster presentations of recent
results, work in progress, new ideas and other smaller projects which may be
of interest to the general community but which are still too speculative,
incomplete or not of sufficient extent to warrant a full paper.
Accepted posters will be included in the digital media. Posters will also be
displayed during the conference and will form the focus of a posters session
to be run in conjunction with one of the social events. We encourage
submissions from all areas related to computer graphics, such as rendering,
modeling, visualization, animation, simulation, virtual reality, computer
vision, and imaging.
Authors of accepted posters will be expected to be present at their posters
during the posters session to discuss their work and answer questions.
Submission Details
Submitted posters should be in the form of a 2 page paper which must be
formatted according to the Eurographics Authors guidelines
(http://www.eg.org/index.php/publications/guidelines) and may be accompanied
by a preliminary version of the actual poster if the authors wish it.
Anonymous submissions will be made electronically through the Eurographics
Submission and Review Management (SRM) system
(https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2016P) and subject to a review
process.
The authors of accepted poster will be asked to submit a final version in
two formats: a 2 page paper and an A4 version of the final poster. Both
formats will be included in the conference digital media with the
proceedings and other material.
For any question concerning poster submissions please contact the posters
