[CFP] Computers & Graphics: Special Issue on Semantic 3D Media and Content

(Apologies if you received this several times through different lists...)

(See also, if you are interested, a nicely typeset version of this announcement in[1])

  Goal
  ----

The goal of the special issue is to collect a broad range of papers on perspective applications of 3D content, a rapidly emerging new form of media in the semantic multimedia panorama and an extremely challenging context of application of semantic multimedia. The issue is promoted by the FOCUS K3D project[2], and it is expected to provide an up-to-date view of the open issues in knowledge intensive 3D media, and trace future research and technological directions.

The special issue addresses scientists not only in Computer Graphics but also in Semantic Technologies, as well as in all the disciplines that make strong use of 3D modelling and simulation; professional developers of tools for 3D content creation and management; publishers/dealers of online 3D repositories; creators of digital 3D content.

  Topics
  ------

We call for contributions on topics related to semantic 3D media and applications, including but not limited to:

• semantics-based 3D modelling and processing
• semantics-driven 3D shape segmentation
• content-based 3D retrieval and classification
• semantics-driven 3D visualization
• 3D media ontologies
• formalization of shape semantics
• smart objects and virtual characters
• automatic creation of imaginary worlds
• semantics-driven interaction in 3D worlds

Contributions should be formatted according to the Computers & Graphics[3] style guide and submitted online.

Detailed instructions are available at the FOCUS K3D project website: http://www.focusk3d.eu/ .

All submissions will undergo a two-stages review cycle according to the standard of the Computers & Graphics Journal.

Guest editors: Bianca Falcidieno (CNR-IMATI, Italy)  Ivan Herman (CWI, the Netherlands, and W3C)
