日本データベース学会の皆様(複数お受け取りの際にはご容赦ください)
お茶の水女子大学の伊藤貴之と申します。
計算機可視化に特化した国際会議では3番めの規模を有する
IEEE PacificVis 2025 が4月22日〜25日に台北で開催されます。
伊藤は昨年度に引き続き Conference Track の論文委員長を務めています。
だいぶ締切が迫っていますが、11月13日アブストラクト入力期限、
11月20日原稿提出期限で論文を募集しております。
日本からもたくさんの投稿を期待しています。なにとぞよろしくお願いいたします。
論文の書式についてはこちらに詳細が掲載されています。
https://pacificvis2025.github.io/pages/Common-call-for-papers.html
IEEE PacificVis 2025 solicits novel research contributions and innovative applications in all areas of visualization. PacificVis is a unified visualization conference covering topics including visualization techniques and systems, interactions, analytics and decision support, theoretical contributions to visualization, empirical studies, and visualization applications in domains such as (but not limited to) biological sciences, education, machine learning, physical sciences, security, and social science.
IEEE PacificVis 2025 will be held in Taipei, Taiwan on April 22?25, 2025. The conference accepts a range of scientific contributions ranging from full research papers, short papers, and posters. This year, PacificVis has a TVCG journal paper track, a conference full paper track, and a short paper (VisNotes) track with consecutive deadlines.
Conference Trackの詳細説明はこちらに掲載されています。
https://pacificvis2025.github.io/pages/Conference-papers.html
Submissions are invited to the new conference paper track at IEEE PacificVis 2025. Papers demonstrating high quality in terms of originality, rigor, and significance will be published in the IEEE PacificVis conference proceedings. Both new submissions and papers rejected from the TVCG journal track are invited to be submitted to the conference paper track, with optional reviewer continuity.
The rejected papers from the TVCG journal track are not automatically forwarded to the conference paper track. However, the deadlines for the TVCG and conference paper tracks are explicitly organized so that a paper rejected for the TVCG journal paper track can optionally be revised and resubmitted to the conference paper track. We encourage authors of rejected papers to take advantage of this mechanism.
Following the initial notification of review results, conditionally accepted papers (including supplemental material) will undergo a revision and review cycle in order to ensure that they are acceptable for publication and presentation in the conference proceedings. The paper and its supplemental material will also be archived in the IEEE Digital Library, in accordance with its standard terms and conditions.
The conference track of PacificVis 2025 will especially invite education and system papers. The education papers are supposed to contribute to the education of visualization experts and to the education of general users to improve their visualization literacy, and will be reviewed with emphasis on the uniqueness and effectiveness of educational methods rather than on technical novelty. The system papers are supposed to contribute to the development of visualization systems, and papers will be reviewed with emphasis on the completeness and practicality of the system rather than on theoretical novelty. For both sessions, please specify the session to which you wish to submit your paper by clicking the check box provided on the submission form.

---------- CALL FOR PAPERS -----------
The 7th International Conference on Activity and Behavior Computing
(IEEE Technically Co-sponsored)
Apr. 21-25 , 2025, Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi, UAE (Hybrid)
https://abc-research.github.io/
(Please send an empty email to abc2025(a)autocare.ai to get updates!)
Human Activity Recognition has been researched in thousands of papers so
far, with mobile / environmental sensors in ubiquitous / pervasive domains,
and with cameras in vision domains. As well, Human Behavior Analysis is
also explored for long-term health care, rehabilitation, emotion
recognition, human interaction, and so on. However, many research
challenges remain for realistic settings, such as complex and ambiguous
activities / behavior, optimal sensor combinations, (deep) machine
learning, data collection, platform systems, and killer applications.
In this conference, we comprehend such research domains as ABC: Activity
and Behavior Computing, and provide an open and a confluent place for
discussing various aspects and the future of the ABC.
CALL FOR PAPERS
We welcome 3 categories of papers: regular papers, position papers, and
challenge papers. The submitted papers are peer reviewed by expert
researchers, and accepted based on the research quality.
Accepted and presented papers will be published as IEEE Proceedings or a
J-Stage open access journal.
SCOPE
• Mobile sensor-based ABC
• Environmental sensor-based ABC
• Vision-based ABC
• Multimodal ABC
• Physical / semantic analysis of ABC
• Gait analysis
• Sleep analysis
• Emotion recognition / analysis
• ABC with deep learning
• ABC data mining
• Data collection
• ABC systems
• Interactive ABC
• Healthcare applications
• Nursing applications
• Elderly care applications
• Sports applications
• Business applications
• Tools for industry

CATEGORIES
- Regular papers (4-10 pages) : full technical content papers, published in
+ IEEE proceedings or
+ J-Stage open access journal.
- Position papers (2-4 pages): describe the challenges and future
directions of ABC based on problems that arise when systems are deployed in
real settings (Not to be published).
- Challenge papers: we will provide a dataset and accept results for a
recognition challenge with papers describing the methods and the results.

IEEE BigComp 2025
https://www.bigcomputing.org/conf2025/
February 9 - 12, 2025
Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia
Big data and smart computing are emerging research fields that have
been drawing much attention from diverse disciplines including
computer science, information technology, and social sciences. The
goal of the International Conference on Big Data and Smart Computing
(BigComp), initiated by KIISE (Korean Institute of Information
Scientists and Engineers), is to provide an international forum for
exchanging ideas and information on current studies, challenges,
research results, system developments, and practical experiences in
these emerging fields among researchers, developers, and users from
academia, business and industry. Following the successes of the
previous BigComp conferences in Bangkok, Thailand (2014), Jeju, Korea
(2015), Hong Kong, China (2016), Jeju, Korea (2017), Shanghai, China
(2018), Kyoto, Japan (2019), Busan, Korea (2020), Jeju, Korea (2021),
