3D Object Retrieval Workshop 2017
3DORLOGO

Search engines are now the default way in which most people engage with information, as the vast majority of information is born digital. Also, a new wave of information is underway: low-cost 3D scanners, 3D printers, and powerful modeling software have made 3D models appeal to an increasing audience. Repositories of 3D objects are rapidly growing in both number and size. Yet, the task of exploring such large 3D repositories and retrieving the models of interest remains a challenging problem. Indeed, traditional information access techniques have been shown inadequate to deal with 3D content. Therefore, it is crucial to develop algorithms for content-based searching of 3D object collections; creating compact and accurate descriptors for 3D objects; creating efficient storage structures for databases of 3D objects; investigating theoretical aspects of practical importance, such as the definition of the similarity concept; interfaces for content-based 3D object search; visualization techniques for 3D search results; real time aspects of techniques and algorithms; new challenges such as faceted 3D browsing, social search, and navigation of hybrid datasets. The complex yet concrete problems above are drawing increasing attention from the research community.
The aim of the 3DOR Workshop series is to stimulate researchers from different fields such as Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, Machine Learning, Cognitive Science and Human-Computer Interaction who work on or are interested in 3D object retrieval search and exploration, to present state-of-the-art work in the field or learn about it and participate in discussions. This will provide a cross-fertilization that will stimulate discussions on the next steps in this important research area. 3DOR 2017 will be the 10th workshop in this series.

3DOR 2017 will be a 2-day event and will contain the following tracks: research paper presentations, posters, keynote speeches and EU project presentations and networking. The 3DOR Workshop proceedings are indexed by SCOPUS. This year, extended versions of the full papers will be submitted for a special issue of Computers and Graphics published by Elsevier.

News:

  • The program is online.
  • Keynote speakers have been announced.
  • Practical information for venue and hotels is now available.
  • The 3DOR Workshop proceedings are indexed by SCOPUS.

SHREC2017 - 3D Shape Retrieval Contest 2017

Introduction

The general objective of the 3D Shape Retrieval Contest is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D-shape retrieval algorithms. SHREC'17 is the 12th edition of the contest. Like previous years, it is organized in conjunction with the Eurographics 2017 Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval, where the results will be reviewed by the chairs of the workshop and included in the workshop proceedings.

Thanks to the efforts of previous track organizers, SHREC already provides many resources to compare and evaluate 3D retrieval methods. For this year's contest, we aim to explore new and updated tracks. Therefore, the participants are invited to have an active role in the organization of the event. This includes proposing track themes, building or acquiring a test collection, and deciding upon the queries, relevance assessment, and performance measures.

The participants of each track will collectively write a paper, which will be published in the proceedings of the Eurographics Workshop 3D Object Retrieval. At least one author per track must register for the workshop, and present the results. We also cordially invite all participants of a track to register and attend the workshop. (New: The SHREC2017 tracks are now opened, see the SHREC home page)

Procedure

The following list is a step-by-step description of the activities:

  • Potential track organizers send their proposal to shrec@cs.uu.nl, describing the envisioned task, collection, queries, ground truth, evaluation method, and expected number of participants.
  • Promising tracks and their organizers will be listed at the SHREC web page, the track organizers start working out the details.
  • Participants register for the tracks they want to participate in.
  • Each track is performed according to its own schedule.
  • The track organizers collect the results.
  • The track results are combined into a joint paper, to be included in the proceedings of the Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval,
  • The description of the tracks and their results are presented at the Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval (April 23-24, 2017)

SHREC Time Schedule

  • January 15, 2017: Submission deadline for track proposals
  • January 16, 2017: Notification of acceptance of track proposals
  • Jan, Feb, 2017: Each track has its own time line
  • February 21, 2017: Each track is finished, and results are ready for inclusion in a track report

Practical information

Travel

To come by plane. Lyon has an international airport called Saint Exupéry. You will need to take the train shuttle (30 minutes) called Rhône Express to Part-Dieu and then the streetcar (called Tramway in France) line T1 (15 minutes) from Gare Part-Dieu (direction towards IUT-Feyssine) and stop at INSA-Einstein (TCL website or simplified pdf map of Tramways).

To come by train. The Part-Dieu train station is only 15 minutes from the workshop location. Take the line T1 of the streetcar (Tramway) from Gare Part-Dieu (direction towards IUT-Feyssine) and stop at INSA-Einstein (TCL website or simplified pdf map of Tramways).

To come by car. From the motorways, take the ring road and follow: Porte de la Doua (exit 6a) then Domaine Scientifique de la Doua. Via the A46 Paris and A43 Grenoble: take the A42 in the direction of Lyon Villeurbanne and follow this itinerary.

The workshop will be held close to the Eurographics2017 location, that can be reached easily by bus or by foot (approx. 30 min walking). To go to the Eurographics conference (EG 2017), follow this itinerary to go to the Convention Center.
