CALL FOR PAPERS CGI2022

COMPUTER GRAPHICS INTERNATIONAL, CGI2022, ONLINE , 12-16 September, 2022

Computer Graphics International, CGI2022 will be ONLINE from 12-16 September, 2022. CGI is one of the oldest annual international conferences on Computer Graphics in the world. Researchers are invited to share their experiences and novel achievements in various fields of Computer Graphics. Former recent CGI conferences have been held in Sydney, Australie (2014), Strasbourg, France, (2015), Heraklion, Greece (2016), Yokohama, Japan (2017) , Bintan, Indonesia (2018), and Calgary in  Canada (2019). CGI has become virtual since 2020 due to the pandemic.

This year, CGI2022 is organized by MIRALab, University of Geneva, Switzerland and supported by the Computer Graphics Society (CGS). The Visual Computer is the official journal of the Computer Graphics Society.

The main topics of the CGI 2022 conference are the following:

• Rendering Techniques
• Geometric Computing
• Metaverse (VR/MR/XR)
• Shape and Surface Modeling
• Physically Based Modeling
• Computer Vision for Computer Graphics
• Scientific Visualization
• Data Compression for Graphics
• Medical Imaging
• Computational Geometry
• Image Based Rendering
• Computational Photography
• Computer Animation
• Visual Analytics
• Shape Analysis and Image Retrieval

• Volume Rendering
• Digital Cultural Heritage
• Computational Fabrication
• Image Processing & Analysis
• 3D Reconstruction
• Global Illumination
• Graphical Human-Computer Interaction
• Digital Humans
• Saliency Methods
• Shape Matching
• Sketch-based Modelling
• Robotics and Vision
• Stylized Rendering
• Textures
• Machine Learning for Graphics

CGI2022 papers can be submitted either on March 10 for possible publication in the journal Visual Computer or June 5 for possible publication in a Proceedings book. This year, in addition, we organize two special sessions, one on Metaverse (VR, MR, XR) and the other one in Digital Cultural Heritage. The accepted papers for the special session on Metaverse will be published in the VRIH journal (Virtual Reality and Intelligent Hardware journal published by Science Press). The accepted papers for the special session on Digital Innovation in Cultural Heritage will be published by CAVW journal (Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds)  published by Wiley.

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR PAPERS SUBMISSIONS

The scientific program of the conference will include accepted papers from the first call for papers and these accepted papers will be published by Springer in the Visual Computer Journal (impact factor 2.52) by Springer-Verlag.

The accepted papers from the second call for papers will be included in the CGI conference Proceedings published by LNCS, Springer.

The accepted papers for the special session Metaverse will be published in the VRIH journal (Virtual Reality and Intelligent Hardware) journal published by Science Press.

The accepted papers for the special session in Digital Innovation in Cultural Heritage will be published in the CAVW journal (Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds)  published by Wiley.

Note that for ALL submissions, the review process is double blind, which requires the paper and all supplemental materials to be anonymous. Ensure that self-referencing is anonymous (refer to your full name rather than “I” or “we”). Avoid providing information that may identify the authors in the acknowledgements (e.g. co-workers and grant IDs) and in the supplemental material (e.g. titles in the movies, or attached papers). Avoid providing links to websites that identify the authors. Violation of any of these guidelines will lead to rejection without review.
