[vslist] First Symposium on Applied Perception ( ACM SIGGRAPH)

[Buelthoff Heinrich H.]

First Symposium on Applied Perception in Graphics and Visualization
	   Co-sponsored by and co-located with ACM SIGGRAPH
		August 7-8, 2004, Los Angeles, California

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

Research in computer graphics and visualization has great potential to
benefit from, and contribute to, research in perception. This symposium
seeks to provide a forum for the wider exchange of ideas and information
between members of the graphics and visualization communities who are
using insights from visual/auditory/haptic perception to advance the
design and guide the evaluation of methods for more effective
visual/auditory/haptic representation, and members of the vision
sciences community who are using computer graphics to facilitate the
investigation of fundamental processes of perception.=20
Submissions are invited in the broad range of areas at the intersection
of computer graphics, visualization and perception. Specific examples
include, but are not limited to:=20

applications of insights from perception to the development of
algorithms for more efficient/effective/realistic modeling, rendering
and/or animation;

applications of perception in the design and evaluation of methods for
more effective representation and communication of data;=20

the study of perception and perceptual issues in virtual environments.=20

Submissions are particularly welcome in all areas of basic perception
research that have applications in computer graphics and visualization.=20

Proceedings, which will include the poster abstracts, will be published
by ACM SIGGRAPH. Best papers from the symposium will be invited to be
extended for a special issue of the ACM Transactions on Applied
Perception. http://www.acm.org/tap/
