h2-logo Technical Papers

A technical paper describes a new algorithm, technique, system, or theory that has not previously appeared in the literature. The description provided in the paper should be complete enough that a competent/qualified graduate student in visual information communication could implement or apply the work and should provide a formal/informal evaluation and discussion regarding its strengths and weaknesses.

The technical papers call is open-theme, and this year, we have three types in the Technical Papers: full papers, short papers and posters.
