CALL FOR PAPERS—— CGI 2023
COMPUTER GRAPHICS INTERNATIONAL, CGI 2023, Shanghai, Aug. 28- Sept. 01, 2023
http://www.cgs-network.org/cgi23/
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 ofComputer Graphics and Virtual Reality. Previous recent CGI conferences have been held in Sydney,
Australia (2014), Strasbourg, France (2015), Heraklion, Greece (2016), Yokohama, Japan (2017), Bintan,Indonesia (2018), and Calgary in Canada (2019). CGI has been virtual between 2020 and 2022 due tothe COVID pandemic.
This year, CGI 2023 is organized by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and University of Sydney, andsupported by the Computer Graphics Society (CGS), CGI 2023 will (hopefully) be held as a hybrid event- allowing both onsite and online participation - in Shanghai. The Visual Computer is the official journalof the Computer Graphics Society.
You are invited to submit your full paper to CGI 2023. As in previous years, CGI 2023 papers can besubmitted either on March 17 for possible publication in the Visual Computer journal, or June 12 forpossible publication in the CAVW Journal, VRIH journal and CGI Conference Proceedings (LNCS，Springer) .
For the paper submissions for the Visual Computer Journal Publication, you will be able to edit yoursubmission up to the paper submission deadline (GMT 23:59, 17 March 2023).

2.1 Paper submissions for Visual Computer Journal:
Submission deadline: March 17, 2023, GMT 23:59
Preliminary notification: April 22, 2023
Deadline to Receive Revised Papers from Authors: May 18, 2023
Final Notification of Revised Papers: June 15, 2023

For all papers calls, paper submissions will consist of 8-12 pages. A template for the full papersubmission
isavailableat MicrosoftWord(http://www.cgs-network.org/cgi18/wpcontent/uploads/2018/01/CGI2018_Word.zip) and Latex(http://www.cgs-network.org/cgi18/wpcontent/uploads/2018/01/CGI2018_latex.zip ). Papers should be submitted in PDF format. This PDF
paper should NOT contain any name or affiliation (blind paper). You may include videos in MP4, WMV
and AVI format in the easychair system for your paper submission. For multiple videos, please use zip
file. Please note that there is a maximum file size of 40 MB per submission.

We strongly encourage authors to improve the reproducibility of their research along three directions:open data, open implementations, and appropriate evaluation design and reporting. Where possible,
we invite authors to use open data or to make their data and code available for open access by otherresearchers.
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 yourfull name rather than “I” or “we”). Avoid providing information that may identify the authors in theacknowledgments (e.g. co-workers and grant IDs) and in the supplemental material (e.g. titles in themovies, or attached papers). Avoid providing links to websites that identify the authors. Violation of
any of these guidelines will lead to rejection without review.

Call for CGI 2023 Workshops

The CGI 2023 conference will host a variety of satellite events including workshops, challenges, andtutorials. Workshops have become essential components of CGI conferences, particularly as the fieldhas undergone steady growth and has expanded into a diverse set of areas. The deadline forsubmission of workshop/special sessions proposals is 25 February 2023. Final decisions on revised
proposals will be 8 March 2023. More details can be found in the website:
http://www.cgs-network.org/cgi23/workshops-special-sessions/

Call for CGI 2023 Challenges
Among other satellite events, challenges have become an integral part of CGI 2023. Their aim is toprovide a fair and direct comparison of different methodological solutions to a common problem.
Challenges should address a well-defined open problem relevant to computer graphics and virtualreality, provide high-quality data for testing / training algorithms, and define a clear assessment
procedure. Examples of topics from previous challenges include: rendering, modeling, animation,segmentation, detection and visualization. Proposals related to accessible, fair, responsible, andtranslational graphics applications are particularly welcome. The deadline for submission of challenge
proposals is 25 February 2023.Final decisions on revised proposals will be 8 March 2023. More details
can be found in the website:
