ISVC provides a common forum for researchers, scientists,<br>engineers and practitioners to present their latest research findings,<br>ideas, developments and applications in visual computing. In particular,<br>ISVC seeks papers contributing to the state of the art and practice in the<br>four main areas of visual computing: (1) computer vision, (2) computer<br>graphics, (2) visualization and (4) virtual reality. Of particular<br>interest are papers that combine ideas from two or more areas.<br><br>The symposium consists of invited and contributed presentations dealing<br>with all aspects of visual computing. In addition, it includes six keynote<br>presentations, several tutorials and special tracks, and a poster session.<br>A "best paper award” will be sponsored by industry. The symposium's<br>proceedings are published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in<br>Computer Science series. LNCS publications are indexed by SCOPUS.<br><br>Computer Vision Chairs:<br>• Ramalingam Srikumar, University of Utah, USA<br>• Turek Mark, Kitware, USA<br><br>Computer Graphics Chairs:<br>• Kai Xu, National Univ of Defense Tech., China<br>• Lin Steve, Microsoft Asia, China<br><br>Visualization Chairs:<br>• Jing Yang, Univ of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA<br>• Alsallakh Bilal, Bosch, USA<br><br>Virtual Reality Chairs:<br>• Ventura Jonathan, Univ of Colorado at Colorado Springs, USA<br>• Cuervo Eduardo, Microsoft, USA<br><br>Keynote Speakers:<br>• Ahuja Narendra, UIUC, USA<br>• Camps Octavia, Northwestern University, USA<br>• Paris Sylvain, Adobe Research, USA<br>• Bargteil Adam, U of Maryland, Baltimore Co, USA<br>• Mohler Betty, Max Planck Institute, Germany<br>• Pajarola Renato, University of Zurich, Switzerland<br><br>ISVC Steering Committee:<br>• George Bebis, University of Nevada, Reno, USA (Chair)<br>• Bahram Parvin, Berkeley National Lab, USA<br>• Richard Boyle, NASA Ames Research Center, USA<br>• Darko Koracin, Desert Research Institute, USA<br><br><br>***Important Dates***<br><br>(All deadlines are at 11:59PM Pacific Daylight Time)<br><br>Tutorial & Special Track Proposals: May 28, 2018<br>Tutorial & Special Track Notifications: June 4, 2018<br>Paper submissions: July 2, 2018<br>Notification of acceptance August 13, 2018<br>Final camera ready paper: September 17, 2018<br>Advance Registration: September 17, 2018<br>ISVC Hotel Reservation: October 19, 2018<br>ISVC’18 Symposium: November 19-21, 2018<br><br>***Submission Procedure***<br>This is a fully refereed symposium. Papers submitted to ISVC must not have<br>been previously published and must not be currently under consideration<br>for publication elsewhere. Each paper will receive at least two blind<br>reviews and should not contain names or other information revealing<br>authors’ identity. Papers will be reviewed with an emphasis on potential<br>to contribute to the state of the art in the field. Selection criteria<br>include accuracy and originality of ideas, clarity and significance of<br>results, and presentation quality. Papers should be submitted in<br>camera-ready format. The length should match that intended for final<br>publication (visit the ISVC website for submission details).<br><br>***Attendance***<br>ISVC is a premier forum for presenting and discussing current research in<br>visual computing. At least one author of each accepted paper must complete<br>the symposium registration and present the paper at the symposium, in<br>order for their paper to be included in the proceedings and symposium<br>program. If none of the authors cannot attend the symposium and present<br>their paper(s) due to unforeseen reasons, they should make arrangements<br>with another ISVC attendee to present their paper(s). Video or Skype<br>presentations are not acceptable.<br><br>***Tutorials and Special Tracks***<br>Proposals are invited for tutorials and special tracks on topics relevant<br>to ISVC. Tutorials should address the interests of various individuals in<br>the field of visual computing including graduate students, researchers and<br>educators from academia, and researchers and practitioners from industry<br>and government. Tutorials will be held on Sunday, November 18, 2018.<br>Special tracks will take place during the main dates of the symposium and<br>are intended to stimulate in-depth discussions in special areas relevant<br>to the symposium theme. All papers accepted for presentation in a special<br>track will be published in the symposium proceedings.<br><br><br><br></span><br></span></div></div></body></html>
