Elsevier C&G: Call for Special Section on HDR Imaging

by Stefanie Behnke

Computers & Graphics Journal Special Edition on High Dynamic Range Imaging CALL FOR PAPERS Papers are invited for a Computers & Graphics journal Special Edition on High Dynamic Range Imaging. This special edition seeks contributions which are based on technical aspects related to the capture, storage, processing and display of High Dynamic Range content. High Dynamic Range (HDR) imagery has enabled the handling of content that supports real world luminance. This has created a step change in imaging technologies which were previously limited to a fixed and reduced dynamic range which was unable to represent real-world lighting. HDR still has challenges to overcome before it can become a fully-fledged commercial technology. It is still not possible to capture HDR data, particularly video, in a straightforward manner; once it is captured the number of storage, compression and streaming algorithms are limited; and the display technology has still not achieved its full potential. The applications for HDR also vary widely, and some aspects such as Image-based Lighting have garnered a lot of support, but other interesting applications are sure to exist and yet to be brought into the limelight. In this CFP we invite researchers and professionals that work with imaging technologies to submit papers that will project HDR forward to meet and overcome the current challenges and limitations. We invite work related to but not limited to: - The capture of HDR video and still images - The storage, compression and streaming of HDR content - Display of HDR content on LDR and HDR displays - Generation of HDR content from LDR content - Creation of novel HDR displays - Image-based lighting - Applications of HDR - User studies which establish limits for HDR methods (capture, storage, display) - The extension of HDR to other imaging technologies The Special Edition on High Dynamic Range Imaging editors are: Kurt Debattista from the University of Warwick (UK) and Luís Paulo Peixoto dos Santos from the University of Minho (Portugal) see short CVs below. IMPORTANT DATES Submissions: Friday, 1st March, 2013 Decision on Submitted papers: Tuesday, 16th April, 2013 Revised papers due: Friday, 16th May, 2013 Final Notifications to Authors due: Monday, 6th July, 2013 Accepted papers due: Wednesday, 31st July, 2013 Publication: November 2013 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Computers & Graphics is an Elsevier publication. For paper formatting and submission instructions please refer to <http://ees.elsevier.com/cag> http://ees.elsevier.com/cag . You will have to register/log on to EES in order to be able to submit your paper. When prompted to specify the paper type, you have to select: Special section, HDR.

**** EUROGRAPHICS 2013 Tutorials **** 34th Annual Conference of the European Association for Computer Graphics May 6th to 10th, 2013 Girona, Spain http://eg2013.udg.edu Eurographics 2013, the 34th Annual Conference of the European Association for Computer Graphics, will take place from May 6 to May 10 in Girona, Spain. It will be organized by ViRVIG and University of Girona. Eurographics 2013 will provide a unique platform for the computer graphics community to showcase latest techniques and educational work, and to explore new trends and ideas. The Eurographics 2013 Tutorials Committee invites you to propose tutorials teaching the technical background of a given subject, or demonstrating its potential creative applications. Tutorials are intended to show what can be done, but even more importantly, how this is done and what kind of tools can be used to do it. In a proposal for a tutorial you should consider that tutorial attendees come from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and development to education and application. We are soliciting half-day and full-day tutorial proposals at the beginning, intermediate, or advanced level in all areas pertinent to Computer Graphics. Half-day tutorials are about two and a half hours, plus a coffee break in the middle. Full-day tutorials are twice that long, plus two coffee breaks and a longer lunch break. Tutorial proposals are about 4-5 pages in length, clearly indicating the audience that is addressed as well as the syllabus of instruction. They will be reviewed by the tutorial chairs, supported by external reviewers. The final selection will be based on quality of the submission, qualification of the presenters, relevance to the conference topics, and balance of topics. Each accepted half day tutorial will be granted a free conference registration for one speaker, while each full-day tutorial will be granted a maximum of two free conference registrations. Free tutorial registrations will be granted for all tutorial speakers. For any question concerning tutorial submissions please contact any of the tutorial co-chairs at tutorialschairs(a)eg2013.udg.edu. Submission Details ================== Tutorial proposals (in PDF) should be submitted via email to the tutorial co-chairs. Full proposals (4-5 pages) should be submitted by October 31, 23:59 GMT. The full proposal should contain the following information: Presenter(s) details: * Name(s) * Institution(s) * email address(es) * URL(s) Tutorial details: * Title of Tutorial * Keywords * Half or full day tutorial (either 2x90 minutes or 4x90 minutes) * A detailed outline of the tutorial. * A statement on the necessary background and potential target audience for the tutorial. * A brief resume of the presenter(s) indicating their background in the area the tutorial addresses. * If a (similar) tutorial was previously held, indicate the location (i.e., which conference), date, and the number of attendees. Please provide information highlighting changes, improvements and/or why the tutorial should be held again in this form. Course Notes ================== Sample course notes, although not required in the submission, are highly encouraged to accompany the tutorial proposals. Notes may include original text, formatted according to the Eurographics publication guidelines, reprints of earlier papers (subject to copyright approval), slides and any other material the authors consider useful. All course notes of accepted tutorials will be distributed to conference participants both in printed and DVD formats. The acceptance of tutorial proposals is contingent upon the final submission of complete course notes.
