3D Object Retrieval Workshop (3DOR) 2015
Co-located event with Eurographics 2015
Website: <http://vc.ee.duth.gr/3dor2015/> http://vc.ee.duth.gr/3dor2015/
======================================
!! DEADLINES EXTENSION !!
PAPER SUBMISSION : FEBRUARY 20, 2015
========================================
Do you remember the days when retrieving the data that you needed from the
internet was a matter of visiting sites your friends knew? The days when you
would try out alternative search engines to find a single result? Was it a
coincidence that text retrieval engines flourished with the explosion of
textual information on the internet that could not be manually explored?
A new wave of information is now underway. Low-cost 3D scanners and 3D
printers combined with popular applications of Computer Graphics and Vision
are making 3D object models appeal to an increasing audience. See for
example repositories such as <http://shapes.aimatshape.net/>
http://shapes.aimatshape.net/ , <https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/>
https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/.
As these 3D object collections are growing, the importance of effective
retrieval, search and exploration is increasing. Because it is easier to
find something than to create it from scratch and because manual browsing
quickly becomes intractable as a collection grows.
To this effect it is crucial to develop algorithms for the content-based
searching of 3D object collections; creating compact and accurate
descriptors for 3D objects; indexing 3D objects; creating efficient storage
structures for data bases of 3D objects; investigating theoretical aspects
of practical importance such as what it means for two shapes to be similar;
interfaces for content-based 3D object search; visualization techniques for
3D search results; real time aspects of techniques and algorithms. Many
fields of Computer Science and beyond can offer their valuable knowledge to
this complex but highly interesting and practical problem.
The aim of the 3DOR Workshop series is to stimulate researchers from
different fields such as Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, Machine
Learning, Cognitive Science and Human-Computer Interaction who work on or
are interested in 3D object retrieval search and exploration, to present
state-of-the-art work in the field or learn about it and participate in
discussions. This will provide a cross-fertilization that will stimulate
discussions on the next steps in this important research area. 3DOR 2015will
be the 8th workshop in this series.
3DOR 2015 will be a 2-day event for the first time and will contain the
following tracks: research papers, posters, 2 keynote speeches (NEW!), EU
project presentations and networking (NEW!), industrial session (NEW!).
Call for Papers, Posters and System Demonstrations
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished research and
application papers addressing all areas of 3D Object Retrieval. Submissions
are invited in the form of full papers (up to 8 pages) and short papers
presented in a poster session (up to 4 pages).
Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
- 3D object similarity and matching
- 3D video retrieval
- 3D mobile media retrieval
- 3D object retrieval and Web3D
- 3D search in large scale data
- Personalized 3D search
- 3D object classification, indexing, and mining
- Similarity of non-rigid shapes
- Feature extraction, decomposition, and segmentation
- Multi-level representations for matching and retrieval
- Partial, part-in-whole, and many-to-many matching

e-science, e-learning, medicine, biology, and cultural heritage.
This years workshop will also feature the 10th Shape Retrieval Evaluation
Contest ( SHREC2015 - <http://www.projects.science.uu.nl/shrec/>
http://www.projects.science.uu.nl/shrec/ )
It is planned to have extended versions of selected papers from the Workshop
appearing, after a further review, in a special issue of an international
journal. Selected papers from previous workshops appeared in special issues

Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization
25 - 26 May, Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy
*** EGPGV 2015 - Call for Papers ***
Welcome to the 15th EGPGV, the Eurographics Symposium on
Parallel Graphics and Visualization. The event will take place
on May 25 - 26 in Cagliari, island of Sardinia, Italy.
The Symposium will be held in conjunction with EuroVis 2015.
*** NOTE: there are two tracks for this year's symposium, full papers
and visualization showcase short papers ***
The importance of parallel computing is increasing rapidly with the
ubiquitous availability of multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and cluster systems.
Computationally demanding and data-intensive applications in graphics
and visualization are strongly affected by this trend and require novel
efficient parallel solutions. The aim of this symposium is to foster the
exchange of experiences and knowledge exploiting and defining new trends
in parallel graphics and visualization.
The proceedings of the EGPGV Symposium will be published in the
Eurographics Proceedings Series and in the Eurographics Digital Library.
Focusing on parallel computing, the symposium seeks papers on graphics
and visualization techniques, data structures, algorithms, and systems for:
* large-data
* clusters
* (multi-)GPU computing, and heterogeneous, hybrid architectures
* out-of-core
* hybrid distributed and shared memory architectures
* grid and cloud environments
In particular the symposium topics include:
* computationally and data intensive rendering
* scientific visualization (volume rendering, flow and tensor
visualization)
* information visualization and visual analytics
* simulations for virtual environments (physics-based animation,
collision detection, acoustic)
* mesh processing, level-of-detail, and geometric methods
* visual computing (image- and video-based rendering, image processing
and exploitation, segmentation)
* scheduling, memory management and data coherence
* large and high resolution displays, virtual environments
* scientific, engineering, and industrial applications
Full papers are expected to be eight to ten (8-10) pages in length, with
the final length appropriate to the contribution of the paper. Papers
should be submitted using the Eurographics Conference style

Scientific Visualization Showcase
This year we present a new track for EGPGV 2015, which provides a forum
for the year's most instrumental movies in parallel graphics and
visualization. Finalists will compete for the Best Visualization Award,
and each finalist will present his or her movie during a dedicated
session at EGPGV '15 in a 10-minute presentation. Movies are judged
based on how their movie illuminates science, by the quality of the
movie, and for innovations in the process used for creating the movie.
The accepted submissions will appear as short papers in the symposium
proceedings.
Review and selection process:
Submission should include "Visualization Showcase:" at the beginning of
the paper title. Submissions needed to include a movie (up to 150MB in
size) and a short paper (up to 4 pages including references). The short
paper should describe the scientific story conveyed by the movie, how
the visualization helps scientific discovery, and the
"state-of-the-practice" information behind making the movie. The short
paper should be submitted using the Eurographics Conference style

too early in March 2010. Dirk Bartz was a highly recognized and enthusiastic
scientist, teacher and promoter of Visual Computing in Medicine;
furthermore, he was an active member of the Eurographics Association and
Chair of the EG Medical Prize 2007 and 2009.
CALL
Submissions for the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing in Medicine 2015
are being invited from researchers and developers who can demonstrate that a
particular benefit has resulted from the use of computer graphics technology
in a medical application that they have produced. Examples of entries could

WINNERS
The top three winning entries of the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing
in Medicine 2015 will receive a prize and their submission will be published
in the "Short Papers and Medical Prize Awards" digital media proceedings of
Eurographics 2015. The judging panel will select the winning entry on the
basis of its clinical value, the use made of computer graphics, and its
novelty. All three winning teams will have an opportunity to briefly present
their results at Eurographics 2015, which means that at least one author of
each winning team must attend to present the results.
