V4Design is organizing MADVR 2018

V4Design is organizing MADVR 2018, the 1st International Workshop on Multimedia analysis for Architecture, Design and Virtual Reality games.

The 1st International Workshop on Multimedia analysis for Architecture, Design and Virtual Reality games (MADVR) will be held on October 16, 2018 in Munich, Germany, in parallel with the highly acclaimed IEEE ISMAR conference. MADVR 2018 aims at presenting the most recent works in the area of multimedia analysis in the context of applications for architecture, design and Virtual Reality (VR) games. Nowadays large amounts of visual and textual content is everyday generated, which are of great interest to architects and video game designers, such as paintings, archival footage, documentaries, movies, reviews or catalogues, and artwork. However in their current form it is difficult to be retrieved, reused and repurposed.

The workshop welcomes research works in the areas of Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality, 3D-reconstruction from multimedia and 3D-modelling, Image/video and text retrieval that is focused in architecture structures and elements, multimedia and textual content crawling and scrapping, video game and architecture VR applications.

The workshop is organized by Konstantinos Avgerinakis (CERTH-ITI), Maarteen Vergauwen (KUL), Leo Wanner (UPF-ICREA), Francesco Bellotti (DITEN, University of Genoa) and Stefanos Vrochidis (CERTH-ITI).
