[General] GCH 2017: CfP Short Papers and Posters

Call for Short Papers and Posters Abstracts 15th EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage Graz, Austria, September 27-29, 2017 <http://gch17.tugraz.at/> http://gch17.tugraz.at/ Short Paper and Poster Abstract Deadline: July 21, 2017 Notification: August 15, 2017 The 15th EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage (GCH 2017) aims to foster an international dialogue between ICT experts and CH scientists to advance the understanding of critical requirements for processing, managing, and delivering cultural heritage information to a broad audience. The objective of the workshop is to introduce and showcase new techniques and applications for supporting Cultural Heritage information ranging from data acquisition, analysis and synthesis, 3D documentation, and data management, to new forms of interactive presentation and 3D printing solutions. Interdisciplinary approaches for analysis, classification and interpretation of cultural artefacts are particularly relevant to the event. GCH 2017 provides a scientific forum to exchange novel ideas and techniques in research, education and dissemination of Cultural Heritage information, to transfer them into practice, and identify future research and application opportunities. To advance the dialogue between ICT and CH experts, GCH 2017 will be held in close cooperation with the Museumsakademie of the Universalmuseum Joanneum in Graz, providing opportunity for exchange between the domains. Within this workshop, there is a specific short paper track, that encourages researchers to present their most recent work in a condensed way. Short paper submissions must describe original and unpublished work. While a short paper is not a shortened long paper, the characteristics of short papers include: late-breaking results; a small, focused contribution; work in progress; a negative result; follow-up extensions; evaluations of existing methods; an interesting application nugget. Each short paper submission consists of up to four (4) pages of content, plus unlimited pages for references; reviewers' comments must be taken into account in the final version. Each short paper submission will be reviewed by program committee members. A submission can be accompanied by electronic supplementary material (e.g. images, video, demo). Topics lie in the area of visual computing applied to digital cultural heritage, challenging the state of the art solutions and leveraging new ideas for future developments. Equally, original contributions in the cultural heritage field of relevance to visual computing are welcome. Please use the EUROGRAPHICS LaTeX Package ( <http://gch17.tugraz.at/conference_participation.html> http://gch17.tugraz.at/conference_participation.html) to prepare your submission according to the EUROGRAPHICS style guide. Please note that the GCH 2017 uses a double-blind peer-review process to evaluate the submissions. Each submission should also be complete with all co-authors' information entered into the submission system Submission and Review Management (SRM) provided by the EUROGRAPHICS. Please submit your paper to <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GCH_2017> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GCH_2017. All accepted short papers will be published by the Eurographics Association and archived in the EG Digital Library. Note, that summaries of full papers that have already been published or submitted elsewhere (including in another language) are not acceptable as short-paper submission to GCH 2017. Furthermore, GCH 2017 offers scientists as well as practitioners the opportunity to present their work within the framework of a Poster session in order to present latest or already published work. Here, both scientific and practice-oriented contributions are welcome. To participate at the poster session we invite you to submit an abstract (about 400 words describing the core of the poster) to <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GCH_2017> https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GCH_2017. The abstracts will not be published in the proceedings, however they will be published and shared at the GCH 2017 webpage.
