16th Symposium on 3D Object Retrieval 2023 (3DOR'23) In Cooperation with Eurographics and Elsevier September 31th August, 1st September 2023 Lille, France https://sites.google.com/view/3dor2023 3DOR is the dedicated workshop series for methods, applications and benchmark-based evaluation of 3D object retrieval, classification, and similarity-based object processing. The workshop also includes the 2023 edition of the 3D Shape Retrieval Contest, keynotes, project presentations, and a social and networking event. Short papers will follow a one-stage review process and will appear in the Eurographics Digital Library. *********************************************************** Organization: Workshop Chairs: Silvia Biasotti, CNR IMATI CNR Genoa, Italy Mohamed Daoudi, IMT Nord Europe, CRIStAL, France Program Chairs: Ulderico Fugacci, CNR IMATI CNR Genoa, Italy Guillaume LavouÈ, Ecole Centrale de Lyon - ENISE, LIRIS, France Remco C.

State of the art papers on specific topics of interest are particularly welcome. Submissions are invited in the form of full papers, which will be peer-reviewed by a two-stage review process, and published as a special section of Computers and Graphics Journal (Elsevier). Also, short papers are invited, which will follow a one-stage review process and will appear in the Eurographics Digital Library (pending). Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: * 3D shape analysis * 3D shape similarity and matching * 3D mesh sequence retrieval * 3D mobile media retrieval * 3D search in large scale data * 3D object classification, indexing, and mining * Similarity of non-rigid shapes * Shape correspondence * 3D shape decomposition, and segmentation * Partial, part-in-whole, and many-to-many matching * Matching under uncertainty and noise * Semantics-driven 3D object retrieval and classification * Sketch-based retrieval * Query interfaces and search modalities * Benchmarking issues * Deep learning for 3D shape retrieval * Generative/discriminative approaches in 3D object categorisation * Visual Analytics for 3D similarity assessment * Applications in all areas relevant to 3D/4D objects, including multimedia and information systems, CAD, architecture, games, biometrics, e-science, e-learning, medicine, biology, and cultural heritage, among others. Submission Information Short papers Authors must submit short track and short symposium papers via the Eurographics SRMv2. Authors should aim for their papers to be 8 pages or less. Please see the information about the†guidelines for publishing†through Eurographics. Further information about using the Eurographics SRMv2 can be found on the Wiki. The necessary template for the workshop is available to download.
