Call for papers
SGP ( <https://sgp26.org/>
https://sgp26.org/) is the premier venue for
disseminating research ideas and cutting-edge results in geometry
processing. In this research area, concepts from mathematics, computer
science, and engineering are developed and applied to offer insights into
and to design efficient algorithms for acquisition, modeling, analysis,
manipulation, simulation, and other types of processing of 3D models and
shape collections.
We invite submissions related to, but not limited to, the following topics:
* Acquisition and reconstruction
* Analysis and fabrication for 3D printing
* Architectural geometry
* Computational geometry
* Differentiable rendering
* Discrete differential geometry
* Geometry and topology data structures and representations
* Exploration of shape collections
* Geometry compression
* Geometric deep learning
* Geometric representations for machine learning
* Geometry processing applications
* Interactive techniques
* Meshing and remeshing
* Multiresolution modeling
* Multimodal shape processing
* Neural shape representations
* Point cloud acquisition and processing
* Processing of massive geometric datasets
* Shape analysis and synthesis
* Simulation and animation
* Smoothing, filtering, and denoising
* Surface and volume parameterization and deformation
Dataset Papers
SGP encourages submission of dataset papers to the technical papers program.
Geometric datasets play a critical role in evaluating the behavior of
geometric algorithms, and in recent years they have provided challenging
examples that have driven the field forward. We seek papers that build on
this success by providing, documenting, and discussing datasets with larger,
more challenging examples than those seen beforeor datasets that capture
new challenges in geometry processing.
The SGP proceedings will appear as a regular electronic issue of Computer
Graphics Forum, the International Journal of the EUROGRAPHICS Association.
The journal status of the proceedings requires a two-stage review process
with conditional acceptance after the first round and final acceptance based
on the revised submissions.
For its 2026 edition, SGP uses a double deadline format to provide more
researchers with enough time to obtain a visa to attend the conference
without penalizing authors who may want to submit to our usual mid-Spring
deadline. Authors who choose to submit by the first deadline will receive a
notification of acceptance in mid March, and can readily register to the
conference and apply for a visa. A paper submitted to the first deadline and
rejected can be resubmitted to the second one. All accepted papers will
appear in the same Computer Graphics Forum special issue, independently of
the deadline they were submitted by.
The timeline is as follows:
First Round of Submission
(Recommended) Abstract submission Feb, 2
Paper Submission Feb, 4
Notification of Acceptance Mar, 16
Revised Version due Mar, 26
Camera Ready due Apr, 2
Second Round of Submission
(Recommended) Abstract submission Apr, 13
Paper Submission Apr,
15
Notification of Acceptance May, 25
Revised Version due Jun, 4
Camera Ready due Jun, 11
Graduate School Jun
29-30
Conference
Jul, 1-3
All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC/GMT.
Paper submission via the Submission and Review Management (SRMv2) system:

Awards and Recognitions
Following its traditions, SGP 2026 will attribute three best paper awards, a
software award recognising the authors of an open-source software that has
greatly influenced the field, and a data set award designed to acknowledge
the suppliers of high quality datasets used in geometry processing. In
addition, SGP may provide papers with the reproducibility stamp to recognise
the effort of researchers who, in addition to publishing their paper at SGP
2026, provide a complete open-source implementation of their algorithm.
