[General] 3DIMPVT Call for Papers

[apologies if you received multiple copies] CALL FOR PAPERS: 3DIMPVT 2011: The First Joint 3DIM/3DPVT Conference 3D Imaging - Modeling - Processing - Visualization - Transmission May 16-19, 2011 Hangzhou, China http://www.3DIMPVT.org in cooperation with Eurographics. IMPORTANT DATES: Paper submission due: December 15, 2010 Notification of results: February 21, 2011 Final paper due: March 15, 2011 _______________________________________________________________________ Given the rapid growth of 3D research over the last decade and the recent surge of wide-ranging interest in 3D contents and techniques, the two premier conferences for research in 3D imaging, modeling and processing ? 3DIM and 3DPVT ? are joining forces for 2011. The event will provide a unique forum for disseminating ideas and results that cover a broad scope of topics related to 3D research in computer vision and graphics, from novel optical sensors, signal processing, geometric modeling, representation and transmission, to visualization software/hardware and applications. The organizers invite you to submit high quality, original full research papers by *DECEMBER 15, 2010*. The papers will be reviewed by an international Program Committee (see web site). Accepted papers will be presented in single-track oral sessions as well as poster sessions (all papers are allocated the same number of pages). The conference proceedings will be published by Conference Publishing Services, and made available on IEEExplore. A best paper award will be given; authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the journal "Machine Vision and Applications". Full details on the paper format, electronic submission procedure, conference events and venue are found on the http://www.3DIMPVT.org conference site. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ACQUISITION & MODELING: 3D scanning sensors, software, and systems 3D view registration Automated view planning for surface acquisition 3D photography algorithms Multi-view geometry and calibration Shape reconstruction from point clouds Surface/solid modeling from images Shape and appearance modeling PROCESSING & TRANSMISSION: Geometric signal processing Multi-resolution 3-D representations 3D shape retrieval and recognition Shape analysis and morphology Simplification and resampling of shapes with photometric data Compression and transmission of 3D scenes Streaming and progressive refinements INTERACTION & VISUALIZATION: Image-based rendering and modeling Man/machine interactions with 3D data Augmented reality and virtual environments Haptic sensors and new human-shape interaction modalities Psychophysics of 3D sensing and haptics APPLICATIONS: Reverse engineering, dimensional inspection & metrology Cultural heritage Object/human/environment models Medical applications 3D television and free-viewpoint video 3D tele-immersion and remote collaboration Forensics and security 3D printing and rapid prototyping ORGANIZING COMMITTEE: Program Chairs: Michael Goesele (TU Darmstadt, Germany) Yasuyuki Matsushita (MSR-Asia, China) Ryusuke Sagawa (AIST, Japan) Ruigang Yang (University of Kentucky, USA) General Chairs: Guy Godin (NRC, Canada) Hongbin Zha (Peking University, China) Demonstration Chair: Huimin Yu (Zhejiang University, China) Panel/Challenge Chair: Ioannis Stamos (City University of New York, USA) Web Chair: Xinyu Huang (North Carolina Central University, USA) Local Arrangement Chair: Jian Wan (Hangzhou Dianzi University, China) Mingmin Zhang (Zhejiang University, China) Publicity Chair: Xin Chen (NAVTEQ, USA) Publication Chair: Chang Shu (NRC, Canada) Finance Chair: Zhigeng Pan (Zhejiang University, China) ______________________________________________________________________ FOR MORE INFORMATION: http://www.3DIMPVT.org
