SHREC2026 call for track proposals

by Eurographics Mailing List

CALL FOR PROPOSALS SHREC2026 - 3D Shape Retrieval Challenge 2026 http://www.shrec.net/ At Eurographics 2026 Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval, 3-4 September 2026 Nota bene: Full paper submissions will follow a two-stage review process and will be published in the international journal Computes & Graphics upon acceptance. We strongly encourage to consider the graphics replicability stamp initiative, http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/, and to apply for this additional sign of recognition. Introduction The general objective of the 3D Shape Retrieval Challenge is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D-shape retrieval algorithms. SHREC2026 is the twenty-first edition of the challenge. Like previous years, it is organized in conjunction with the Eurographics Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval (3dor.org<https://3dor.org/>), where the results will be reviewed and presented at the symposium. Thanks to the efforts of previous track organizers, SHREC already provides many resources to compare and evaluate 3D retrieval methods. For this year's contest, we aim to explore new and updated tracks. Therefore, the participants are invited to have an active role in the organization of the event. This includes proposing track themes, building or acquiring a training and test collection, and deciding upon the queries, relevance assessment, and performance measures. The participants of each track will collectively write a paper, which will be peer reviewed, and published in Computers & Graphics upon acceptance. At least one author per track must register for the symposium, and present the results. The registration must be unique for the paper, multiple papers on one registration does not count. We also cordially invite all other participants of a track to register and attend the workshop. Tracks The tracks organized in the past years have covered different aspects and tasks of 3D shape retrieval, for example: rigid or non-rigid models; partial (e.g. range scan) or complete models; sketch-based 3D retrieval; generic or domain specific models (e.g. CAD, biometrics, architectural and molecular), and various aspects such as metric learning, outlier detection, correspondence, robustness, stability, registration, classification, recognition, pose estimation, and machine learning, and change detection. Now we solicit again proposals for tracks. You may opt for one of the above themes, or propose new ones. Track organizers are responsible for all aspects of organizing the track, such as: the task, the data collection (copyright issues, etc.), the queries, the ground truth, the experimental design, the evaluation method, the procedural aspects, writing the final paper in collaboration with the collaborators, and submitting it. See below for examples of previous SHREC editions. We strongly encourage to consider the graphics replicability stamp initiative, http://www.replicabilitystamp.org/, to apply for this additional sign of recognition, and to include this in your track proposal. Procedure The following list is a step-by-step description of the activities: * Potential track organizers send their proposal to R.C.Veltkamp(a)uu.nl<mailto:R.C.Veltkamp@uu.nl>. * describing the envisioned task, collection, queries, ground truth, evaluation method, expected number of participants, and plans to apply for the graphics replicability stamp. * Promising tracks and their organizers will be listed at the SHREC web page, the track organizers start working out the details and recruite participants. * Participants register for the tracks they want to participate in. * Each track is performed according to its own schedule, compliant with the symposium submission and reviewing schedule. * The track organizers collect the results. * The track results are combined into a joint paper.

Geometric datasets play a critical role in evaluating the behavior of geometric algorithms, and in recent years they have provided challenging examples that have driven the field forward. We seek papers that build on this success by providing, documenting, and discussing datasets with larger, more challenging examples than those seen beforeor datasets that capture new challenges in geometry processing. The SGP proceedings will appear as a regular electronic issue of Computer Graphics Forum, the International Journal of the EUROGRAPHICS Association. The journal status of the proceedings requires a two-stage review process with conditional acceptance after the first round and final acceptance based on the revised submissions. For its 2026 edition, SGP uses a double deadline format to provide more researchers with enough time to obtain a visa to attend the conference without penalizing authors who may want to submit to our usual mid-Spring deadline. Authors who choose to submit by the first deadline will receive a notification of acceptance in mid March, and can readily register to the conference and apply for a visa. A paper submitted to the first deadline and rejected can be resubmitted to the second one. All accepted papers will appear in the same Computer Graphics Forum special issue, independently of the deadline they were submitted by. The timeline is as follows: First Round of Submission (Recommended) Abstract submission Feb, 2 Paper Submission Feb, 4 Notification of Acceptance Mar, 16 Revised Version due Mar, 26 Camera Ready due Apr, 2 Second Round of Submission (Recommended) Abstract submission Apr, 13 Paper Submission Apr, 15 Notification of Acceptance May, 25 Revised Version due Jun, 4 Camera Ready due Jun, 11 Graduate School Jun 29-30 Conference Jul, 1-3 All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC/GMT. Paper submission via the Submission and Review Management (SRMv2) system: https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/SGP2026_FP1 (will be available soon) Awards and Recognitions Following its traditions, SGP 2026 will attribute three best paper awards, a software award recognising the authors of an open-source software that has greatly influenced the field, and a data set award designed to acknowledge the suppliers of high quality datasets used in geometry processing. In addition, SGP may provide papers with the reproducibility stamp to recognise the effort of researchers who, in addition to publishing their paper at SGP 2026, provide a complete open-source implementation of their algorithm.

EGSR' 26 - Call for papers

by Eurographics Mailing List

The Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2026 will take place from July 1st to July 3rd, in Bordeaux, France. This 37th event continues the series of highly successful Eurographics Symposia and Workshops on Rendering. <https://egsr2026.inria.fr/> https://egsr2026.inria.fr/ This year, EGSR again features two paper submission tracks: the Research Track and the Industry/Positions Track. ================================================================== Research Track ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- All accepted research papers will be presented at EGSR 2026 and archived in the Eurographics digital library, as either conference papers, or journal papers published in an issue of the Computer Graphics Forum (CGF). Similar to the paper classification process employed by SIGGRAPH and SIGGRAPH Asia, there is no limit to the number of accepted research papers that will be given journal paper status. For each submission, the reviewers will independently determine the type of publication based on the magnitude of the contribution, and the thoroughness of the evaluation. There is no fixed minimum or maximum paper length. However, length must be proportional to contribution, and submissions over 12 pages in length will be treated as exceptional cases. We are looking for work that shapes the future of rendering and image synthesis in computer graphics and related fields, such as human perception, mixed and augmented reality, machine learning, and computational photography and imaging. For each submitted research paper, a minimum of four reviews will be provided to the authors, who will then be able to provide a rebuttal to clarify misunderstandings and answer the reviewers questions. The reviewers will then discuss and decide on acceptance to the EGSR 2026 program. In the event of acceptance, the authors will submit a revised version of their manuscript prior to the conference. For each accepted research paper, at least one author must register and present the paper in person. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Important dates (All times are midnight, 23:59 AoE) * EGSR abstract deadline April 8, 2026 * EGSR papers deadline April 15, 2026 * Reviews released May 11, 2026 * Rebuttals due May 15, 2026 * Accept/reject notifications May 25, 2026 * Final papers due June 10, 2026 * CGF decision notification June 14, 2026 * EGSR conference July 1-3, 2026 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Topics of interest We invite original contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in topics related, but not limited, to: - Physically based rendering and global illumination - Monte Carlo sampling, reconstruction, and integration - Real-time rendering, including ray tracing, acceleration structures, and GPU algorithms - Rendering software and hardware systems - Inverse and differentiable rendering - Neural rendering, neural or 3D Gaussian representations for rendering - Image processing and manipulation for rendering and compositing - Machine learning for rendering, rendering for machine learning - Generative models of image synthesis - Material and scattering models - Acquisition, modeling, and fabrication of geometry, appearance, and illumination - Color science, spectral modeling, and rendering - Face and human capture and rendering - Computational photography, imaging, optics, and displays - Image-based rendering (IBR), lightfields - Expressive and non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) - Vector graphics and other non-pixel-based rendering formats - Procedural modeling and texturing - Augmented, virtual, and mixed reality, including rendering, input, and output technologies - Other Monte Carlo algorithms, including simulation and geometry processing - Human perception for rendering - Scientific visualization, e.g. large-scale data visualization and volume rendering - Audio and sound rendering - Wave rendering and coherent effects ================================================================== Industry/Position Papers Track ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- EGSR 2026 includes an Industry/Positions Papers Track that features invited papers from our colleagues in industry that are on topics of interest to the general rendering community. One goal of this track is to provide an accessible venue for getting out ideas that have found practical use in industry and could impact the future of rendering research, but might not meet the standards of scientific evaluation expected in formal research papers. These papers will be curated by the paper co-chairs and will be presented in the conference alongside the research papers. We are looking for papers that present ideas in and applications of rendering (both off-line and real-time), as well as other aspects of image synthesis (e.g., image-based rendering, rendering for AR/VR, machine learning for rendering). Topics for possible Industry/Position papers include, but are not limited to: - Position papers that provide a different perspective, broader view, or scholarly synthesis of a field of research - Position papers that pose interesting problems found in industry rendering applications that should be more emphasized in academic research - Novel rendering ideas that are interesting and already successfully used in practice but might not be developed to the point of a formal research paper - Extensions or twists on existing rendering algorithms that have been found to produce better results in practice - A description of a state-of-the-art rendering pipeline or software/hardware system - A new dataset that would facilitate research in rendering Papers accepted in this track will be published in the Eurographics Digital Library for archival purposes and presented at EGSR 2026. For each paper, at least one author must register and present the paper in person. Instructions for submitting your work to the Industry Track will be public soon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Important dates Industry Track (All times are midnight, 23:59 AoE) * Industry Track papers deadline May 22, 2026 * Author notification June 5, 2026 * Final papers due June 19, 2026 EGSR26 Program Chairs - Ioannis Gkioulekas, Carnegie Mellon University (Pittsburg, US) - Adrián Jarabo, Meta (Zaragoza, Spain)
