EGPGV 2025 Call for Papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

The Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV) aims to foster the exchange of experiences and knowledge on leveraging and defining new trends in parallel graphics and visualization. This area is important due to the widespread 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. EGPGV 2025 will take place on June 2, 2025, and will be co-located with EuroVis 2025, held June 2 to June 6, 2025, in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg. The proceedings of EGPGV will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series and the Eurographics Digital Library. EGPGV seeks papers on graphics and visualization that involve parallel computing and/or focus on very large data sets. Papers on techniques, data structures, algorithms, systems, and applications are welcomed. Parallel computing includes high-performance computing and cloud environments, (multi-)GPU computing and heterogeneous, hybrid architectures, and shared and/or distributed memory architectures. Further, papers focused on processing very large data sets (either for visualization or graphics) are welcomed, even if they do not have a particular focus on parallelism. Typical Symposium Topics: - Computationally and data-intensive rendering - Scientific visualization (e.g., volume, flow, and tensor visualization) - Machine learning as applied to parallel graphics, visualization, and/or large data analytics - Information visualization and visual analytics - In situ analytics and in situ visualization - Out-of-core processing of large data sets for visualization or graphics - Simulations for virtual environments (physics-based animation, collision detection, acoustics) - 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 - Parallelization approaches and algorithms, such as MapReduce - Database-related methods, algorithms or approaches, and query-based visualization - Advanced hardware for data handling or visualization - Large and high-resolution displays, virtual environments - Scientific, engineering, and industrial applications - Data analytics on large scientific data sets In general, appropriate topics for the symposium fall into one of four categories: 1. Parallel graphics 2. Rendering of very large data sets 3. Parallel visualization and analytics 4. Processing of large data sets for visualization or analytics Submission Types: - Full Papers (8 to 10 pages) in Eurographics format (+1 page for references) - Short Papers (up to 4 pages) in Eurographics format (+1 page for references) Important Dates: - Abstract Deadline: February 3, 2025 - Submission Deadline: February 7, 2025 If you would like more information, please don't hesitate to contact the Program Co-Chairs via papers(a)egpgv.org.

Paper submissions are invited across the broad range of areas covered by Expressive. We welcome papers in several categories: * Research: New algorithms, scientific studies, analysis, or data (i.e., traditional academic papers). Research papers must contain novel results that substantially contribute to the field. * Production: Candid discussion of creating a work (e.g., film, image, game) or developing a tool (e.g., paint or CAD program, software library). We are equally interested in papers on using existing techniques combined in novel ways or their application in a new or unusual context. * Creative: Descriptions of original creative projects or analyses of expressive techniques used in artworks, performances, or computational design projects. Creative papers should highlight artistic innovation, and we encourage artists submitting to the Expressive 2025 Art Exhibition also to submit a creative paper describing their project. * Meta: Research statements 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. We welcome papers that discuss the challenges of bridging computational expression across disciplines. Submissions can also overlap more than one of these categories. At Expressive 2025, the Technical Papers program will have two integrated paper tracks: Journal (Elsevier Computers & Graphics) and Conference. The papers can be submitted through: - Elsevier Computers and Graphics submission portal (Link: <https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx> https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx - Note: please select VSI: Expressive Media 2025).

CfP EuroVis 2025 Workshop: VisGap - The Gap between Visualization Research and Visualization Software

by Eurographics Mailing List

Dear colleagues, We would like to invite you to contribute to: ******************************************************************************* VisGap - The Gap between Visualization Research and Visualization Software (co-located with EuroVis 2025) June 2nd, 2025, Luxembourg City, Luxembourg ******************************************************************************* Over the years, many visualization methods and tools have been developed and published by the visualization research community. However, most of these are prototypes and never reach a state that can be reliably used by the target audience, e.g., domain scientists. Also, availability of these prototypes as source code or at least as executables is still the exception rather than the norm. The VisGap workshop aims to shed light on this gap between research and practical applicability, examine the obstacles every researcher faces, and propose solutions to overcome this problem as a community. VisGap'25 aims to gather experts from all over the visualization community in order to advance the way our field works with software, sustains software, and values the effort our members put into developing said software. The scope of VisGap also includes reproducibility and replicability. Both are cornerstones of the scientific method and essential for building trust in visualizations and increasing their acceptance, ultimately fostering adoption in the wild. We also explicitly solicit contributions about visualization systems and tools, and their employment in research and practice. We solicit papers with 4-8 pages, with one additional page allowed for references. All submissions must be original works that have not been published previously in any conference proceedings, magazine, journal, or edited book, or must present a substantial extension of previous work (at least 30%). *** NEW this year *** We solicit extended abstracts of up to 2 pages (plus an additional page for references). The abstracts can present research ideas, projects, opinions, or a collection of problems. All accepted abstracts will be invited to give a lightning talk. Papers and extended abstracts must be submitted through PCS (https://new.precisionconference.com/). All submissions will undergo a single-blind, single-stage peer review process. Accepted papers and extended abstracts will be published by the Eurographics Association, and be stored in the Eurographics Digital Library. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and participate in the VisGap'25 workshop to present their work. Topics include, but are not limited to: - Requirements for successful visualization in applications in general - Domain-specific requirements for visualizations - Reflections on the research community and the visualization software ecosystem - Incentives and funding for developing/maintaining visualization research software - Legal requirements (e.g., licensing, certification) for visualizations in applications - Case studies of (un)successful visualization solutions in applications - Requirements for novel visualization libraries - Verification and validation in visualization (applications) - Reproducibility of visualizations Important Dates ******************************************************************************* Paper Submission Deadline: March 11, 2025 Extended Abstract (Lightning talk) Submission Deadline: April 11, 2025 Notification of Acceptance (Papers & Lightning talks): April 18, 2025 Workshop Date: June 02, 2025 More info: https://visgap.gitlab.io/visgap25/ Organizers and Contact ******************************************************************************* Christina Gillmann, Fraunhofer FIT, Germany Michael Krone, Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences, Germany Guido Reina, University of Stuttgart, Germany Thomas Wischgoll, Wright State University, Dayton, USA If you have any questions, please contact us: mailto: visgap(a)googlegroups.com Best regards, Christina Gillmann, Michael Krone, Guido Reina, Thomas Wischgoll VisGap'25 Organizing Committee

Expressive+Wiced 2025 Call for full papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

The Expressive+Wiced 2025 ( <http://expressive.graphics/2025/> http://expressive.graphics/2025/) will take place in London, UK, on May 12th 2025 - co-located with Eurographics 2025. The Expressive Symposium explores the capacity of computer graphics, animation, and computational media to be used in artistic, aesthetic, and creative ways. The field can be seen as encompassing problems in expressive understanding, expressive communication, and expressive interaction: * Expressive understanding integrates aspects of computer science, philosophy, psychology, and the fine, applied, and performing arts, investigating theoretical approaches that further our understanding of aesthetic evaluation, perception and meaning. * Expressive communication focuses on imagery and motion, which is expressive rather than photorealistic, although it may incorporate realistic elements. * Expressive interaction explores models, algorithms, and technologies for sketch-based and XR interfaces, particularly classifying and recognizing hand-drawn shapes as a way to create or edit digital models, text, mathematics, or 3D shapes. Paper submissions are invited across the broad range of areas covered by Expressive. We welcome papers in several categories: * Research: New algorithms, scientific studies, analysis, or data (i.e., traditional academic papers). Research papers must contain novel results that substantially contribute to the field. * Production: Candid discussion of creating a work (e.g., film, image, game) or developing a tool (e.g., paint or CAD program, software library). We are equally interested in papers on using existing techniques combined in novel ways or their application in a new or unusual context. * Creative: Descriptions of original creative projects or analyses of expressive techniques used in artworks, performances, or computational design projects. Creative papers should highlight artistic innovation, and we encourage artists submitting to the Expressive 2025 Art Exhibition also to submit a creative paper describing their project. * Meta: Research statements 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. We welcome papers that discuss the challenges of bridging computational expression across disciplines. Submissions can also overlap more than one of these categories. At Expressive 2025, the Technical Papers program will have two integrated paper tracks: Journal (Elsevier Computers & Graphics) and Conference. The papers can be submitted through: - Elsevier Computers and Graphics submission portal (Link: <https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx> https://www.editorialmanager.com/cag/default.aspx - Note: please select VSI: Expressive Media 2025). After reviews, the best papers will be retained for publication in the C&G journal, while other high-quality papers that do not reach the C&G bar will be redirected to the conference paper track. The submitted papers must be anonymous and formatted according to the C&G guidelines. There is no strict page limit, but the length should justify the contribution. - SRM submission system (Link: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025) - The papers submitted through SRM will only be considered for the conference track. The conference proceedings will be made available online via Eurographics Digital Library. They will also be archived in the ACM Digital Library. The submitted papers must be anonymous and formatted in the template given here: <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025/GetConferenceFi…> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/Expressive_WICED_2025/GetConferenceFi… Important dates: - Paper submission deadline: February 03, 2025 - First review notification (Possible outcomes: Conditionally accepted as a journal paper, Accepted as a conference paper, Reject): March 03, 2025 - Revised paper submission deadline (for Conditionally accepted journal papers): March 17, 2025 - Second review notification: March 31, 2025 - Camera-ready submission April 12, 2025 If you have any questions, please feel welcome to contact the Program chairs, Chiara Eva Catalano and Amal Dev Parakkat, at chairs-expressive2025(a)eg.org <mailto:chairs-expressive2025@eg.org> Submission topics Topics include but are not limited to: * Analysis and modelling of creative behaviour (AI, A-life) * Simulation of natural media, traditional styles, and novel artistic styles * Analysis of image style and saliency (paintings, photographs, others) * Visualisation techniques, Simplification and Abstraction techniques (e.g., sketching, indication) * Empirically-based metrics of aesthetic attributes * Applied visual perception * Interaction techniques (e.g., sketch, gestural, multi-touch, multi-modal, XR) * Sketch-parsing, classification, and recognition * Novel interfaces for art creation, modelling, control, sketch input * Study designs and methodologies for evaluating and validating sketch-based systems, aesthetic metrics, visual communication systems * Advanced rendering techniques (e.g., volumetric, GPU, mobile, multi-modal) * Applications in special domains, e.g., Medicine, Geology, Biology, Sociology, Cultural Heritage * Sketch-based information retrieval * Stylistic or aesthetic aspects of character animation and simulated physics * Accounts of real productions (e.g., animated films, digital art) or applications in software products (e.g., modelling, visualisation, presentation software) * Visual composition design, rendering, and evaluation of layouts for text and presentation graphics * Example-based style transfer * Deep learning and neural networks for expressive rendering (e.g., neural style transfer) * Temporal and spatial coherence * Aesthetic evaluation and stylistic rendering of visual effects such as motion blur, depth of field, and lighting * Non-traditional camera models * Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) * AI-assisted modelling, animation, and generation of 2D/3D content * AI-enhanced visual effects and generative art General Co-chairs Marc CHRISTIE - University of Rennes 1, Rennes, France Fotis LIAROKAPIS - CYENS Centre of Excellence, Cyprus Program Co-chairs Chiara Eva CATALANO - CNR IMATI, Genova, Italy Amal Dev PARAKKAT - Telecom Paris, Institut Polytechnique de Paris, France Posters & Demo Co-chairs Daniel BERIO - GOLDSMITHS, London, UK Alexandre BRUCKERT - University of Nantes, France Publicity Chair Mona ZAVICHI, INESC, Lisboa, Portugal --
