The VMV Symposium series is well-established as Germany’s premier symposium that covers the fields of computer graphics, computer vision, visualization, and visual analytics, and it has reached significant international visibility. VMV offers researchers the opportunity to discuss a wide range of different topics within an open, international, and interdisciplinary environment.

For this year’s conference, we offer a student posters track as well as a special "nectar track", see below.

Student poster track:
---------------------

To enable a better research dissemination and sharing of ideas, presentations of current work in any area in computer graphics, computer vision, and visualization are welcome to the submission. BSc and MSc students are encouraged to submit a poster abstract related to any area in computer graphics, computer vision, and visualization. The main author of the submission should be a student. The goal is to enable easily sharing of preliminary research ideas, results of student projects (explicitly including bachelor and masters theses), applications and case studies, experience reports.

Nectar track:
-------------

We would like to allow for a presentation and discussion of very high-quality results at VMV. For this reason we allow few poster presentation for papers originally published elsewhere. This should be the best result in the field over the coarse of few years that would provoke discussion and enable overview of important scientific results for VMV community.

The original paper would have been published at one of the major conferences or journals relevant to VMV, e.g., ICCV, Vis, SIGGRAPH, Eurographics, SIGGRAPH Asia, and PAMI, IJCV, ToG, TVCG, starting from year 2014. The organizers reserve the right to refuse a contribution. Decisions on acceptance will be made based on quality, relevance, and availability of presentation slots.
