EG VCBM 2021 Call for Papers
<http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/
Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine 2021 in
Paris, France and online.
* Workshop Dates: September 22 - September 24, 2021
* Submission Deadline (full, survey, and short papers): July 2, 2021
Aims and Scope
EG VCBM (http://www.vcbm.org/), the Eurographics Workshop on Visual
Computing for Biology and Medicine, is an annual event addressing the state
of the art in visual computing research with a strong focus on applications
in biology and medicine. It provides an interdisciplinary forum for experts
(researchers and practitioners) from visualization, visual analytics,
computer graphics, image processing, computer vision, human computer
interfaces as well as experts from biology and medicine, jointly working on
next generation visual computing solutions for medicine, healthcare and the
biotechnology sector.
This years workshop (already the 11th VCBM since its foundation in 2008)
will be held from September 22 to September 24, 2021, in Paris, France. We
currently hope to have a hybrid event at which people can meet in person in
Paris. In any case, there will be an option to attend this years VCBM
virtually for those who may not be able to travel.
EG VCBM solicits the submission of original, application-oriented research
papers that advance the fusion of visual computing methods within medicine
and biology. All papers (regular papers as well as short papers) should
focus on a well-defined biological/medical problem, and demonstrate a
significant innovation or improvement in visual computing.
Suggested topics for full and short papers include, but are not limited to:
* Visual computing solutions for medical applications like radiology,
surgery, pathology, cardiology, nephrology, neurology, etc., including
medical education
* Visual computing solutions for applications that support biomedical
research in systems biology, *omics research, molecular pathology,
neuroanatomy, biomedical imaging, etc.
* The use of virtual reality and augmented reality in biomedical
applications (e.g., for surgical procedures, molecular visualization)
* Visualization approaches for data from new or challenging imaging
modalities (e.g., real-time ultrasound, CyTOF, Spectroscopy, layer fMRI)
* Visual computing solutions in the context of the virtual
physiological human.
* Medical simulation and visual computing solutions that support new
approaches in computational medicine.
* Visual analytics in Behavioral Biology (e.g., collective behaviour)
or epidemiology (e.g., population studies)
In addition to that, we solicit:
* Survey papers on visual computing in biology and medicine
Information for Authors
In addition to full-length papers, there will again be a short papers track
and a survey track, encouraging scientific contributions from an even more
diverse group of researchers and practitioners. All VCBM 2021 papers (full,
short and surveys) will be peer-reviewed and will appear in the Eurographics
Digital Library.
We encourage the use of digital videos to support all submissions,
particularly if part of, or all of the work covers interactive techniques.
Please use only the most common video codecs such as MP4 H.264 to maximize
the chances that the reviewers can view it.
* Full Papers: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers
to the full papers track. However, it is unusual for papers to exceed 10
pages (in CGF latex style including all images and references). Papers
should only be as long as their content would justify. Reviewers might rate
a submission lower if it is perceived as being unnecessarily long or might
recommend it for a short paper, instead. Authors are encouraged to use
supplementary material, such as videos or executable programs to provide
extra content. The authors of the best papers (usually the best three
papers) are invited to submit an extended version of their work to Computer
Graphics Forum (CGF), provided that their work fits into the scope of CGF.
* Short Papers: Short papers describe a more focused and concise research
contribution and are likely to have a smaller - yet significant - scope of
contribution. Potential examples include the presentation of initial results
from novel ongoing research projects or the exploration of new application
areas. Short papers draw from the same list of topics as full papers. Their
length is limited to a total of 5 pages (including references).
* Surveys: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers to
the surveys track. However, it is unusual for surveys to exceed 20 pages (in
CGF latex style including all images and references). Authors are encouraged
to use supplementary material, such as videos, to provide extra content.
VCBM 2021 will also feature a poster and an image contest program, the
details of which will be announced in a separate call.
Submission Instructions -
Papers can be submitted using the Eurographics SRM conference management
system. More information on the preparation of your submissions will also be
available on the VCBM 2021 website: <http://www.vcbm.org/>
<http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/
Important Dates
* Paper submission deadline (full, short and survey papers): July 2, 2021
* Author notification: August 6, 2021
* Camera-ready deadline: August 27, 2021
* Workshop: September 22 - September 24, 2021
All deadlines are at 23:59 CET (UTC+1).

3D Object Retrieval Workshop Series
From the very beginning, the aim of the 3DOR Workshop series is to stimulate
researchers to present state-of-the-art work, learn about or discuss topics
in the field 3D object retrieval, search and exploration in a
multi-disciplinary context of expertise such as Computer Vision, Computer
Graphics, Machine Learning, Cognitive Science and Human-Computer
Interaction. 3DOR provides a cross-fertilization that will stimulate
discussions on the next steps in this important research area. 3DOR 2021
will be the 14th workshop in this series.
Search engines are now the default way in which most people engage with
information, as the vast majority of information is born digital. 3D digital
content is today pervasive: low-cost 3D scanners, 3D printers, and powerful
modelling software have made 3D models appeal to an increasing audience.
Repositories of 3D objects are rapidly growing in both number and size.
Time-dependant acquisition, animation and simulation give rise to 3D objects
as a function of time, yielding 4D objects. Yet, the task of exploring such
large 3D/4D object repositories and retrieving the models of interest
remains a challenging problem. It is crucial to develop algorithms for
content-based searching of 3D object collections; creating compact and
accurate descriptors for 3D objects; creating efficient storage structures
for databases of 3D objects; investigating theoretical aspects of practical
importance, such as the definition of the similarity concept; interfaces for
content-based 3D object search; visualization techniques for 3D search
results; real time aspects of techniques and algorithms; new challenges such
as faceted 3D browsing, social search and navigation of hybrid datasets. The
complex yet concrete problems above are drawing increasing attention from
the research community, which is becoming more and more varied in terms of
disciplines needed to solve various facets of the challenges.
The 3DOR Workshop series has been characterized since the beginning by a
specific attention to benchmarking with the organization of the session on
the 3D Shape Retrieval Contest (SHREC). The general objective of the 3D
Shape Retrieval Contest is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D-shape
retrieval methods and algorithms. SHREC 2021 is the 16th edition of the
contest. As in previous years, it is organized in conjunction with the
Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval. Results papers from SHREC
tracks will be reviewed in a two stage-review process, like regular full
papers (see below).
Call for Papers
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished research and
application papers addressing all areas
of 3D/4D Object Retrieval. State of the art papers on specific topics of
interest are particularly welcome.
Submissions are invited in the form of full papers, which will be
peer-reviewed by a two-stage review
process, and published as a special section of Computers and Graphics
Journal (Elsevier). Also, short
papers are invited, which will follow a one-stage review process and will
appear in the Eurographics Digital
Library (pending).
Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
- 3D/4D shape analysis
- 3D/4D shape similarity and matching
- 3D/4D mesh sequence retrieval
- 3D/4D mobile media retrieval
- 3D/4D search in large scale data
