Area 1: Computer Vision

Computer vision, the study of enabling computers to understand and interpret visual information from static images and video sequences, is expanding rapidly throughout the world. During the past ten years, computer vision has grown from a research area to a widely accepted technology, capable of providing dramatic increase in productivity and improving living standard. We are seeking papers covering both the theory and applications of computer vision. Topics of interest include all aspects of computer vision including, but not limited, to the following areas:

Early and Biologically-Inspired Vision

Color and Texture

Illumination and Reflectance Modeling

Segmentation and Grouping

Object Recognition/Detection/Categorization

Motion and Tracking

Video Analysis and Event Recognition

Biometrics (Face, Fingerprint, Hand, Iris, etc.)

Pattern Recognition

Statistical Methods and Learning

Document Analysis

Medical Image Analysis

Image and Video Retrieval

3D Reconstruction

Shape from X

Physics-Based Modeling

Image-Based Modeling

Applications

Area 2: Computer Graphics

Advances and breakthroughs in computer graphics have made visual media the basis of the modern user interface. It is clear that graphics will play a dominant role in the way people communicate and interact with computers in the future. ISVC seeks original research and applied papers in all areas of computer graphics. Topics of interest include all aspects of virtual reality including, but not limited, to the following areas:

Geometric Modeling

Applications

Area 3: Virtual Reality

Virtual reality (VR) enables users to experience a three-dimensional environment generated using computer graphics, and perhaps other sensory modalities, to provide an environment for enhanced interaction between a human user and a computer-created world. ISVC seeks original research and applied papers in all areas of virtual reality, as well as augmented reality, mixed reality and 3D HCI. Topics of interest include all aspects of virtual reality including, but not limited, to the following areas:

Augmented Reality

Mixed Reality

Artificial Reality

Real-Time Rendering

Collision detection in VR

3D Interaction for VR

Modeling and Simulation

Applications

Area 4: Visualization

The field of visualization seeks to determine and present underlying correlated structures and relationships in both scientific (computational and medical sciences) and more abstract datasets. The prime objective of the presentation should be to communicate the information in a dataset so as to enhance understanding. Topics of interest include all aspects of visualization including, but not limited, to the following areas:

Visualization Taxonomies and Models

Information Visualization

Scalar, Vector, and Tensor Visualization

Multi-dimensional and Multi-Resolution Data Visualization

Time Series Data Visualization

Medical Data Visualization

Molecular Data Visualization

Geographic Data Visualization

Volume Visualization

Flow Visualization

Visualization Systems

Visual Analytics, Visual Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery

Display and Interaction Technology

Human Perception and Cognition

Human Factors

Haptics for Visualization

Evaluation and User Studies

Hardware for Visualization

Mesh Techniques and Compression

Applications

All papers accepted will appear in the symposium proceedings which will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
