# Call for Contributions
Topological Data Analysis has become, over the last few years, an
established framework for the extraction and analysis of subtle structural
patterns in complex data. It has been successfully applied in a variety of
application fields, including quantum chemistry, astrophysics, fluid
dynamics, combustion, material sciences, biology, and data science. In
particular, the genericity, efficiency, and robustness of topological
methods have made them particularly well suited for the multi-scale,
interactive analysis and visualization of the structural information of
data.
Despite their rising mainstream popularity, topological methods still face a
number of challenges, including, for instance efficient computational
methods for large-scale time-varying data, the characterization of noise and
uncertainty, or the support of emerging data types such as ensemble data or
high-dimensional point clouds.
The IEEE VIS Workshop on Topological Data Analysis and Visualization aims at
being an inclusive forum for the fast dissemination of the latest results in
theory, algorithms, and applications of topological methods for the
interactive and visual analysis of data. This workshop is a remodeling of
the established TopoInVis workshop series, with the goal of being more
diverse (in terms of applications) and inclusive (in terms of communities),
with a clear will to open to other members of the visualization community
potentially interested in topological methods, or experts in topological
methods from other communities willing to experiment with interactive and
visual applications.
New in 2022: This year, in addition to full paper presentations, we will
host a session of lightning talks (approx. 5 minutes) for early-career
researchers (Ph.D. students, post-docs, etc.) to advertise their work to the
community.
Relevant topics include (but are not limited to):
- Topological methods for the analysis and visualization of:
* High dimensional point cloud data
* Graph data
* Scalar, vector, tensor, multi-field data
* Time-varying data
* Ensemble data
* Uncertain data
- Topological methods for data science (dimensionality reduction,
clustering, etc.)
- Computational methods for topological data analysis and visualization
- Software systems for topological data analysis and visualization
- Visual analytic frameworks relying on topological methods
- Applications of topological data analysis and visualization
We welcome contributions as regular papers in the IEEE VGTC format (up to 9
pages of content, plus up to 2 pages of references), as well as abstracts
(at most 500 words) for early-career lightning talks.
Paper submissions will be peer-reviewed by an international program
committee, including experts in topological methods for scientific data,
information visualization, visual analytics, computational geometry and
machine learning.
Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
Important Dates:
- June 21, 2022: abstract deadline for full papers
- June 25, 2022: submission deadline for full papers
- July 30, 2022: author notification
- August 15, 2022: submission deadline for early-career lightning talk
abstracts (500 words)
- October 15-17, 2022: Workshop co-located with IEEE VIS
Instructions for submission and further details will appear soon on the
workshop website: <https://topoinvis.org/> https://topoinvis.org/

Call for Submissions: SIGGRAPH 2022 Posters
https://s2022.siggraph.org/program/posters/
Submission Deadline: Tue, 26 April 2022 22:00 +00:00 GMT
The SIGGRAPH Posters program is an interactive forum where students, researchers, artists, enthusiasts, and practitioners present the latest developments and ongoing research. No matter the core concept --whether an art installation, a technical brief, or anything in between--, the ideal Posters submission expresses a novel and applicable idea in a simple, concise, visually appealing manner. There is no need to have a completely finished and polished product as long as the foundation of the work is strong and demonstrative results and initial findings are presented.
Accepted posters will be published in the ACM Digital Library.
Students also are encouraged to submit to the Student Research Competition for the chance to win a prize, be recognized, and progress to the ACM Student Research Competition Grand Finals!
Learn more about the poster track and timeline on the website above. For further questions, please contact posters-s2022(a)siggraph.org<mailto:posters-s2022@siggraph.org>.
Looking forward to your submissions!
Sincerely,
Olga Diamanti (SIGGRAPH 2022 Posters Chair)
