We consider animation and simulation in a broad sense defined as computation dealing with time-varying phenomena, and invite you to submit high-quality work. Accepted full papers will be published in the journal Computer Graphics Forum, a leading journal for in-depth technical articles on computer graphics. Accepted short papers will be published in the conference proceedings indexed by ACM and Eurographics.

The conference topics include:

    2D 3D and N-D animation systems
    Autonomous agents
    Clothing animation and simulation
    Expressive motion / communication
    Generative and morphable models
    3D and 4D motion modeling
    Learned character control
    Facial animation
    Feature learning of motions faces body shapes and hand gestures
    Group and crowd behavior
    Interactive computer graphics
    Intuitive interfaces for creating and editing animations
    Mathematical foundations of animation
    Methods of control and artistic direction of simulations
    Machine learning techniques for animation
    Modeling and simulation of natural phenomena
    Nature in motion (natural phenomena plants clouds etc.)
    New time-based art forms on the computer
    Novel time-varying phenomena
    Perceptual metrics and foundations of animation
    Physical realism / measuring the real world for animation
    Physical simulation
    Fluid animation and simulation
    Planning / learning / optimization for animation
    Real-time and interactive methods
