Call for Papers

 

Shape Modeling International (SMI 2021) provides an international forum for the dissemination of new mathematical theories and computational techniques for modeling, simulating and processing digital representations of shapes and their properties to a community of researchers, developers, students, and practitioners across a wide range of fields. Conference proceedings will be published in a Special Issue of Computer & Graphics Journal, Elsevier. Papers presenting original research are being sought in all areas of shape modeling and its applications.

 

Topics

 

Acquisition and reconstruction

Behavior and animation models

Compression and streaming

Computational topology

Correspondence and registration

Curves and surfaces

Deep Learning Techniques for Shape Processing

Digital fabrication and 3D printing

Exploration of shape collections

Feature extraction and classification

Healing and resampling

Implicit surfaces

Interactive modeling, design and editing

Medial and skeletal representations

Parametric and procedural models

Segmentation

Semantics of shapes

Shape analysis and retrieval

Shape correspondence and retrieval

Shape modeling applications (biomedical, GIS, artistic, cultural heritage and others)

Shape statistics

Shape transformation, bending and deformation

Simulation

Sketching and 3D input modalities

Triangle and polygonal meshes

Shape modelling for 3D printing and fabrication

Biomedical applications

Artistic and cultural applications

 

Submission Guidelines

 

Papers should present previously unpublished, original results that are not simultaneously submitted elsewhere.

 

Submissions should be formatted according to the style guidelines for the Computers &Graphics Journal and should not exceed 12 pages, including figures and references. We strongly recommend using the LaTeX template to format your paper. We also accept papers formatted by MS Word according to the style guidelines for Computers & Graphics. The file must be exported to pdf file for the first round of submission. For format details, please refer to Computers & Graphics Guide for Authors.

 

The SMI 2021 conference will use a double-blind review process. Consequently, all submissions must be anonymous. All papers should be submitted directly via the journal online submission system of Computers & Graphics. When submitting your paper to SMI 2021, please make sure that the type of article is specified by "SI: SMI 2021".

 

Any accepted paper is required to have at least one registered author to attend and present the paper at the conference. We are planning to make registration free for all attendees.

 

Location

 

Important notice to all attendees: SMI 2021 will be organized as a teleconference due to the coronavirus outbreak. The conference program will be exactly the same as in previous years; it will include paper presentations, keynote talks, and several workshops but everything will be done using remote conferencing services. All attendees will participate in the conference remotely with video/audio and slide sharing; there will be no on-site participation.
