Call for Papers (PDF version)

We invite you to participate in the 2009 International Workshop on Representation and Modeling of Large-scale 3D Environments (Modeling-3D), to be held in conjunction with the ninth Asian Conference on Computer Vision (ACCV09), on Sept 24, 2009, in Xian, China.

Recent advances in sensor and modeling technologies enable the development of novel techniques that offer both feasibility and robust performance on reconstruction of large-scale environments. Improvements on the performance of traditional/novel vision techniques such as structure from motion, multi-view stereo, and image-based modeling have made high-end acquisition of 3D structure and motion a reality. Advances in sensor technologies such as depth camera, closer-range laser range finder, and Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) permit to deploy modeling systems on terrestrial, airborne, static, moving, and even handheld platforms to quickly capture 3D structure of a large environment with high degree of accuracy. Progresses in computer graphics enable effective representation, rendering and visualization of photorealistic models on PCs. The advances in high-speed network technology allow effective delivery of 3D models throughout the networked world.

As part of the ACCV 2009, the Modeling-3D 2009 Workshop will bring together researchers to present results and innovations in all aspects of modeling and representation of large-scale 3D environments. The workshop seeks original high-quality research and application submissions. All submitted papers will be subject to a peer review process. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings of ACCV 2009. High-quality papers will be selected to appear in a special issue of the International Journal of Virtual Reality (IJVR) after the conference.

Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Scene reconstruction from multi-dimensional and multi-view images
  • Wide-area structure from motion and stereo
  • 3D scene modeling from multiple sensors
  • Real-time scene modeling from video
  • Range data analysis and processing
  • 3D shape and feature representation
  • Multi-sensor data fusion, alignment, and registration
  • 3D model simplification and compression
  • Stream processing for very large datasets
  • Appearance/illumination modeling and representation
  • Real-time, mobile 3D systems
  • Rending and visualization of large-scale models
  • Applications of large-scale models and modeling systems

Important Dates

  • Paper submission due: July 20, 2009
  • Notification of acceptance: August 10, 2009
  • Camera-ready paper due: August 20, 2009
  • Workshop: September 24, 2009

Paper Submission

  • Format: papers submitted for review and publication must follow the format specified for the main ACCV 2009 conference: author guidelines for paper submission to ACCV2009. The maximum paper length for publication is up to 12 pages. The file size is limited to 10 MB.

  • Submission: the paper must be submitted electronically in Adobe Acrobat PDF format at the Submission Website.

  • Review: the review process is double-blind, so the paper must not include any information which allows the authors to be identified. This means that authors should not indicate their names or affiliations on the paper, acknowledgements must not be included in the manuscript, and references to authors’ previous work must only be included in a form that does not link them to the authors.
