Special section on the 2011 joint symposium on computational aesthetics (CAe), non-photorealistic animation and rendering (NPAR), and sketch-based interfaces and modeling (SBIM)

摘要

The year 2011 marked the first year that the conferences CAe, NPAR, and SBIM all combined forces and in August organized a joint symposium in Vancouver, Canada, co-located with ACM SIGGRAPH. All fields share a strong interest in expressiveness-CAe with respect to the expressiveness of aesthetics, NPAR with respect to creating expressive imagery, and SBIM with respect to expressive interaction and modeling. The joint symposium including the associated art show thus was a tremendous success, attracting 161 participants from all over the world.
