==========
Call for Papers:
The importance of making computers understand the scene presented to them
cannot be understated. The ability to automatically infer the semantics and
geometry of any given scene would enable a variety of different applications
in the field of Augmented reality, Robotics, Image Processing and
Visualization. Understandably, a large amount of research effort has been
directed at this problem in the computer vision and machine learning
communities, with plenty of motivation and interest in computer graphics.
The availability of commodity depth sensors have led to a number of
breakthroughs to made in this space. Much of this success can be attributed
to the use of computer graphics for generating realistic sensor data.
We believe the time is ripe for extending this promising approach to the
more challenging problem of full scene understanding. However, to enable
this, we need close collaboration between researchers from machine learning,
computer vision, and computer graphics. This workshop is intended to bring
researchers from these communities together.
We are soliciting original contributions which employ shape analysis and
image processing for abstracting, representing, and manipulating raw depth
scans of indoor environments. Specific topics include, but are not limited,
to:
- Shape analysis
- Scene Classification + RGBD data analysis
- Modeling and recognition of scene-object interactions
- 3D Spatial Understanding from Images
- Physically Grounded Scene Interpretation
- Large-scale Data-driven approaches for shape collection analysis
- Understanding scenes from depth images and videos
- Interaction applications combining raw scenes with virtual objects
- Depth Datasets
- Computer Vision as Inverse Graphics
