Call for Papers

GI 2012 will be the 38th Graphics Interface conference; it is the oldest continuously-scheduled conference in the field. GI consistently attracts high-quality papers on recent advances in interactive systems, human computer interaction, and graphics, from around the world.

All paper submissions are fully peer reviewed by two members of the program committee and two external reviewers. Accepted papers will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.

Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit significantly extended and revised manuscripts to be considered for journal publication in a special section of Computers and Graphics.

Papers have a maximum length of eight pages. Pages beyond eight are subject to page charges. Papers as short as four pages can be accepted.

Graphics Interface 2012 will have joint sessions for the graphics and HCI tracks. Topics of interest at GI include (but are not restricted to):

  • Shading and rendering
  • Geometric modeling and meshing
  • Graphics in simulation
  • Image-based rendering
  • Image synthesis and realism
  • Medical visualization
  • Scientific visualization
  • Computer animation
