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/
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
- Matching under uncertainty and noise
- Semantics-driven 3D object retrieval and classification
- Sketch-based retrieval
- Query interfaces and search modalities
- Benchmarking issues
- Relevance feedback methods
- Active learning
- Statistical techniques for 3D shape analysis and retrieval
- Generative/discriminative approaches in 3D object categorization
- Applications in multimedia, CAD, architecture, games, biometrics,
e-science, e-learning, medicine, biology, and cultural heritage.
This years workshop will also feature the 10th Shape Retrieval Evaluation
Contest (SHREC2015). A separate call for participation will be issued
later.
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
of The Visual Computer (TVC) journal.

Poster submissions due: Friday, November 21st, 2014 at 23:59 GMT/UTC
We invite the submission of proposals for technical poster presentations
at IEEE VR 2015.
Poster submissions might describe recently completed work, highly
relevant results of work in progress, or successful systems and
applications, in all areas of VR. Since posters are not considered to be
formal publications, work submitted as a poster is eligible for future
publication in other venues.
Presenting a poster is a great way to get feedback on work that has not
yet been published. Poster presentations will be an integral part of the
conference, with a session for interactive discussion between presenters
and attendees, plus a fast-forward presentation track where authors can
orally present a brief summary of their work to all conference
attendees. Note that, in order to maintain interactive and exciting
poster presentations, we require at least one presenter per accepted
poster to attend the conference.
Poster submissions must be in English. The submission must be in the
form of a two-page abstract. Supplemental material, such as a poster
draft or videos may be submitted as well, but are not mandatory. All
submitted materials must be in PDF format with embedded fonts. Two-page
abstracts will be included in the proceedings and will be archived in
the IEEE Digital Library, and therefore must be formatted using the IEEE
Computer Society format described at
<http://www.cs.sfu.ca/%7Evis/Track/vr-menu.html>
http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Track/vr-menu.html.
Poster abstracts must be submitted through a special poster slot
available at the online submission
site, <http://precisionconference.com/%7Evr>
http://precisionconference.com/~vr. Supplemental materials can be
uploaded to the submission site as well. Poster drafts and final posters
should be in either portrait or landscape format with the following
approximate dimensions: 32″ x 40″ (82cm x 102cm).

Laboratory and Project Presentations Track
We invite academic laboratories working in all areas of virtual
environments, mixed reality, and 3D user interfaces to submit a proposal to
make a Laboratory Presentation or Project Presentation at the IEEE VR 2015
Conference in Arles, France ( <http://ieeevr.org/> http://ieeevr.org). Track
presentations will highlight the breadth and depth of research activities
from laboratories and large, multi-year projects.
The Laboratory and Project Presentations Track is designed to introduce the
international community to VR research and to showcase the diversity and
vibrancy of that research worldwide. Session attendees and presenters will
find it a place to meet and interact with other academic and industrial
researchers where they may find good students or postdocs, identify
internship opportunities, or begin conversations leading to new friends and
colleagues and new collaborations.
Why submit? Accepted presentations in the Laboratory and Project
Presentation Track will give their authors an opportunity to:
* Broaden the community of researchers who are aware of your groups
work.
* Describe what is unique about your work. Do you have unique research
facilities and equipment? With whom do you collaborate? What is your funding
source-- National? EU or International?
* Present a broad view of your work (rather than, as for a paper, a
report on a single result)
* Describe the motivation for your research
* Discuss the challenges of the work and your approach to addressing
those challenges
* Talk or speculate about future directions.
Other exposure for your work: Poster and Proceedings. Accepted proposals
will be invited to prepare a poster for display throughout the conference.
