Funded PhD Positions in Geometric Computing / Computer Graphics / Virtual Reality - Bremen

by eurographics＠eg.org

Funded PhD Positions in Geometric Computing / Computer Graphics / Virtual Reality The work in this position will be carried out within the project "EASE - Everyday Activity Science and Engineering", which is to perform fundamental research to enable robots to perform human everyday activities, such as setting a table or loading a dish washer. One strand of research of the CGVR lab in this endeavor is sub-project H01 ("Acquiring activity models by situating people in virtual environments"), where we will deal specifically with the challenge of grasping. Here, the task is to develop novel methods such that a human user can grasp virtual objects using a virtual hand with high simulation fidelity and high dexterity. The goal is to allow humans to interact with virtual objects just like in real live, and to study their grasping behaviors under a large variety of scenarios and parameters. The other strand of research is sub-project R03 ("Embodied simulation-enabled reasoning"), where we are to develop algorithms that enable robots to "envision" the outcomes of their tentative plans by simulating the real world around them, before they actually follow through with their plan. This requires novel methods for faster-than-realtime physically-based simulation and the development of predicates in order to evaluate the outcomes. The work will involve research on geometric real-time algorithms and physically-based simulation. In addition, it will involve computer graphics and virtual reality, in general. Also, while we don't prove theorems, you should be comfortable with mathematical thinking and applying maths.

EuroVis 2018: CALL FOR STATE-OF-THE-ART REPORTS - STAR sketch submission deadline 13 October 2017

by eurographics＠eg.org

CALL FOR STATE-OF-THE-ART REPORTS All accepted STARs will be published in Computer Graphics Forum Important Upcoming Dates Submission of STAR sketch (two pages +references+bibliography): 13 October 2017 Invitation for full STAR submission: 3 November 2017 Submission of full STAR: 2 February 2018 EuroVis 2018 is the 20th annual scientific gathering on visualization jointly organized by the Eurographics Working Group on Data Visualization and the IEEE Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee. EuroVis 2018 will be held in Brno, Czech Republic, from 4-8 June 2018. Like last year, all accepted EuroVis 2018 STAR reports will be published in Computer Graphics Forum. State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) are intended to provide up-to-date and comprehensive surveys on topics of interest to the visualization research community. We encourage the submission of STARs on topics that have not yet been covered in any recent previous STAR or other survey. We welcome submissions that introduce emerging technologies, as well as proposals on more traditional visualization topics. We also welcome contributions from related disciplines and application areas demonstrating contributions to, or benefits from, the area of visualization including, but not limited to, visual computing, computer graphics, human-computer interaction, virtual reality, image processing, computer vision, psychology, geography, chemistry, computational fluid dynamics, data analysis, computational sciences, medicine, biology, economy, politology, etc. As part of the acceptance process into Computer Graphics Forum, STARs will undergo a multi-stage process. First, authors are asked to submit an initial sketch by 13 October 2017. A STAR sketch briefly describes the planned STAR by outlining the topic, discussing its relevance to the visualization community, providing the planned structure and outline of the STAR together with all key references, and short biographies of the authors. The length of a STAR sketch main text is limited to two pages. References and short biographies are considered supplementary pages and are not counted within the two page limit. Bibliographies are be limited to 200 words per author. The format of the sketch can be found at http://www.eurovis2018.org/ STAR sketches will be reviewed by the STAR IPC and comments on suitability and relevance will be provided by 3 Nov 2016. Authors will then be required to submit a full STAR. Full STAR submissions will then undergo a single blind, double cycle review, similar to the one for regular papers submitted to Computer Graphics Forum, where three external experts on the respective topic will evaluate the STAR. Full submissions are 25 pages maximum. To demonstrate the relevant expertise needed to produce the proposed STAR, authors are required to submit the brief biographies of all authors as supplementary materials. Electronic submission of the STAR sketch and full proposal is mandatory and will be conducted using https://precisionconference.com/~vgtc/ according to the guidelines defined at: http://www.eurovis2018.org/ We plan to schedule each STAR as an approximately 45 minute presentation (subject to the schedule management of the EuroVis 2018 program). In any circumstance, a STAR presentation will be given a longer time slot than that for a full paper. For any questions concerning STAR submissions please contact the STARs co-chairs: star(a)eurovis2018.org Important Dates Submission of STAR sketch (two pages +references+bibliography): 13 October 2017 Invitation for full STAR submission: 3 Nov 2017 Submission of full STAR: 2 Feb 2018 Review notification: 16 March 2018 Second round submission: 20 April 2018 Second review notification: 4 May 2018 Camera ready deadline: 18 May 2018 General Chair Barbora Kozlikova, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic STAR CHAIRS (star(a)eurovis2018.org) Robert S.

We welcome submissions on all topics relevant to EUROGRAPHICS, and particularly encourage STARs on topics that have not been covered in any recent previous STAR. STAR reports on cross-sectional, multi-disciplinary areas are also highly welcomed. A STAR can also address the use of Computer Graphics techniques in a different scientific discipline or in industrial practice. For examples of suitable STAR topics, please refer to the EUROGRAPHICS digital library. Accepted STARs will be published in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, which appears right before the EUROGRAPHICS conference. 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. Submissions needing a major revision will be transferred to the standard submission track of Computer Graphics Forum. At EUROGRAPHICS 2018, the authors of a STAR will be given 90 minutes to present the report at a level that allows non-experts in the particular domain to follow the presentation. For questions concerning STAR submissions please contact the STARs co-chairs Klaus Hildebrandt and Christian Theobalt: chairs-eg2018stars(a)eg.org Submission details Electronic submissions of STARs is mandatory and will be conducted using the Submission and Review Management System (https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2018STARs).
