SBIM'07 Extended Submission Date

by Joaquim Jorge

Extended Submission Date: Abstract submission deadline: May 8, 2007 Deadline for paper submissions: May 15, 2007 Fourth Eurographics Workshop on Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling (SBIM '07) http://www.eg.org/sbm University of California Riverside, CA, USA Thursday August 2 - Friday August 3, 2007 Aims and Scope Most computer user interfaces continue to be based on the keyboard and mouse. These are good for typing and pointing, but they lack the naturalness, transparency, and ease-of-use of basic low-tech pencil and paper. Modern pen computing hardware--in principle--enables fluid drawing, sketching, and direct manipulation of both text and graphics. To realize this potential requires effective user interface designs and underlying algorithms to support them. This workshop will explore techniques and technologies needed to enable sketch-based interfaces. The foci will be on methods for recognition of hand-drawn shapes and interpretation of diagrams and sketches, and on applications of sketch-based interfaces to a variety of domains such as 2D/3D graphics, CAD, diagram editing, and note-taking. Empirical usability studies aimed at clarifying the nature of sketch-based interfaces and comparing pen input to other interaction techniques are also welcome. The workshop is being held in cooperation with Eurographics and the American Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI). The workshop dates of August 2-3 are just prior to SIGGRAPH. The workshop location is Riverside, California, 1.5 hours by car from the SIGGRAPH venue in San Diego. The two-day workshop will include paper presentations (single track), a breakout session, coffee breaks, a conference dinner, and invited talks. There will be a demo session in which participants have an opportunity to demonstrate their systems and try out those of the other participants. All are welcome to attend the workshop; submission of a paper is not required for attendance. The proceedings will be published in the EG Workshop series and made available online through the Eurographics Digital Library. Summaries of previous Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling Workshops can be explored at http://www.eg.org/sbm. Authors are invited to submit technical papers on topics including, but not limited to: * Low level ink processing * Sketch segmentation * Classification and recognition of hand-drawn sketches * Multimodal interfaces for sketching * Novel sketch input devices * Rendering techniques for sketch-based interfaces (NPR) * Usability studies of sketch-based systems * Sketch-based interfaces for 2D/3D computer graphics (modeling, animation, games, etc.) * Sketch-based CAD systems * Sketch-based interfaces for other applications (diagram editing, math, etc.) * Sketch-based retrieval of multimedia Information Authors of workshop papers are encouraged to provide demos. We also invite: * demos of rough ideas and work in progress. * demos that present and critique commercial pen computing software * demos of games and other novel applications making creative use of sketch interfaces Submission Procedure Authors are requested to submit papers, no longer than 10 pages, with the main body set in Eurographics Conference Paper Format. Each paper should contain title, authors' names and affiliations, abstract, keywords, text, illustrations, and references. Detailed guidelines and LaTeX style files are available through the EG Conference Manager (MCP) (http://egmcp1.cgv.tugraz.at/SRM_SBIM07). All submissions will be done electronically via the EG Conference Manager (MCP). Papers will be accepted in PDF format only. Documentation on and assistance with the submission system is available at http://egdl1.cgv.tugraz.at/SRMwiki/index.php/Main_Page. Please contact the conference organizers should you experience any problems with electronic submission. Proceedings will be available on-line through the Eurographics Digital Library and in paper book form in the Eurographics Book Series. Paper selection will be based on technical and scientific content and relevance to the workshop. Those interested in providing a demo should submit a one-page abstract of the proposed demo. If possible, the abstract should include a URL for a video, screen images, etc. Special Issue: Computers & Graphics Revised and expanded versions of selected workshop papers will be featured in a special issue of the Computers and Graphics Journal (Elsevier) in 2008.

As information worlds, they are either virtual or real and can be both. In terms of information modeling, the theoretical ground for Cyberworlds is far above the level of integrating spatial and temporal database models. This conference will deal with large distributed information worlds on the Internet as well as methods and tools used for creating such worlds. A new feature of the conference this year will be topics dealing with the relation between Cyberworlds and Computational Engineering (CE). This means, we encourage submissions showing how contributions from CE will help improving the physical accuracy of Cyberworlds and Virtual Reality (VR). Vice versa, we also ask for submissions showing how concepts from Cyberworlds (and VR) help to improve environments and systems used for CE applications, e.g. medical science. The conference proceedings will be printed by IEEE. The best papers will be published in a special issue of "The Visual Computer". Conference Topics - Philosophy, evolution, and ethics of Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds and their impact on the real world - Cyber ethics and cyber laws - Cyber security - Visual Cyberworlds - Virtual humans in Cyberworlds - Virtual reality in Cyberworlds - Computer vision and augmented reality for Cyberworlds - Intelligent agents in Cyberworlds - Communication in Cyberworlds - Distributed virtual environments - Shared virtual worlds - Data mining and warehousing in Cyberworlds - Virtual production engineering in Cyberworlds - Cyber engineering - engineering methods enhancing VR worlds and vice versa - Bioinformatics for cyber life and medicine - Health care in Cyberworlds - Cyber medicine - medical visualization in combination with VR - Cyberworlds and visualization for bioengineering - Cyber information systems - E-business in Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds for education - Collaborative work using Cyberworlds - Cyber fairs and cyber museums - Multi-user web games CW 2007 will provide an opportunity for scientists and engineers from around the world to share the latest research, ideas, and developments in these fields. The conference will consist of full and short paper sessions as well as hands-on demonstrations, where research groups, artists, and vendors will show the state-of-the-art in the field. To find out more about the CW 2007 submission details, see http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/events/hcw07/papers/call_for_papers_cyberwor… There will be two associated workshops on the conference: - HAPTEX'07 VR Workshop On Haptic and Tactile Perception of Deformable Objects - NASA-GEM New Advances in Shape Analysis and Geometric Modeling Find out more on our conference web page: http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/hcw07 Important Dates: Paper Due 1 May 2007 Notice of Acceptance 4 June 2007 Registration 15 July 2007 Camera Ready 2 August 2007 Cyberworlds Conference 24-27 October 2007 Organized by Leibniz Universität Hannover - Welfenlab In-cooperation with Eurographics.
