[General] Point-Based Graphics 2005, Call for Papers

Call for Papers Point-Based Graphics 2005 June 21-22, 2005 Stony Brook, New York, USA http://www.cs.princeton.edu/gfx/pbg05 Co-sponsored by Eurographics and the IEEE-CS Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee (VGTC) In Cooperation with ACM/SIGGRAPH The drive for ever-denser 3D geometric models has brought about an increased interest in methods that rely on point primitives. The highly successful 2004 Symposium on Point-Based Graphics demonstrated the applicability of point-based methods in modeling, rendering, data acquisition, simulation, geometry, and graphics hardware, and in domains ranging from acoustics to artistic rendering. The next PBG Symposium will be held June 21-22, 2005, and we invite your original contributions in areas including, but not limited to, the following: - Data acquisition and surface reconstruction - Geometric modeling using point primitives - Sampling, filtering, approximation, and interpolation - Transmission and compression of point-sampled geometry - Rendering algorithms for point primitives - Animation and morphing of point-sampled geometry - Topological properties of point clouds - Hybrid representations and algorithms - Hardware architectures using point primitives - Use of point-based methods in real-world applications Important Dates --------------- 13 April 2005 Electronic abstract submission 15 April 2005 Electronic paper submission 23 May 2005 Author notification 30 May 2005 Camera-ready copy How to Submit ------------- Electronic submission is now open at http://www.cs.princeton.edu/gfx/pbg05/submission.html All papers will be peer-reviewed, and if accepted, will be printed and published directly from their revised electronic form. Published papers will also be available electronically in the Eurographics Digital Library. PBG 05 uses a double-blind reviewing approach. Please remove all personal data (like author, affiliation etc.) from your submission. For questions regarding the papers submission procedure, please contact pbg05-papers-chairs(a)csail.mit.edu.
