S3D (Search in 3D) 2008: Call for Papers
The S3D Workshop will be held in conjunction with CVPR 2008 at the Egan Convention Center in Anchorage, Alaska, on June 27, 2008.
Papers in the workshop program must describe high-quality, original research. Topics of interest include all aspects of, and areas related to, the following:
- 3D shape features for matching; 3D similarity measures;
- 3D segmentation; 3D object detection;
- 3D scene recognition; 3D human activity recognition and monitoring;
- Search based on range data; Search in multi-view (implicit 3D) video;
- Searching 3D panoramic image databases, potentially for mobile navigation and localization;
- Efficient search and matching in 3D image databases, including search based on partial view of objects;
- Search driven by 3D information extracted from video, such as 3D motion segmentation, optic flow, and other vision characteristics;
- Measuring perceptual relevance of retrieval;
- Machine learning in search;
- Analysis of search parameters, for example using historical knowledge of prior search, e.g. using VisTrails in search;
- Applications: Online browsing for heritage, tourism and e-commerce, autonomous navigation, security and surveillance, mobile navigation.

Important Dates
| Paper Submission Deadline: | March 29, 2008 |
| Decisions announced: | April 29, 2008 |
| Submission of Final Paper: | May 4, 2008 |
| Workshop date: | June 27, 2008 |
Paper Submission
All submissions will be handled electronically. Submission instructions will be posted on the conference website (http://www.cvpr.org/2008/) in due course. Reviewing will be double-blind. In submitting a manuscript to S3D, authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in content has been or will be submitted to another conference or workshop during the review period.
Camera-Ready Paper Submission
We are having the publisher (OmniPress) collect all the workshop papers at a centralized website. Once the website is setup, OmniPress will send an e-mail to all of the contact authors with instructions on how to submit their camera-ready papers. Included in each e-mail will be the OmniPress generated import number that each author will need to submit their paper. Also included in each e-mail will be instructions about using IEEE PDF eXpress as well as the IEEE electronic copyright.
Post conference research meetings and tours
In addition to the main workshop program, post-conference research meetings and tours in the Canadian mountain parks (Banff/Jasper, Alberta) will be arranged, sponsored in part by Informatics Circle of Research Excellence (iCORE) Alberta. Through these additional meetings we will aim to produce common datasets and benchmarks, summary statements from different groups, and description of application areas.
