<p class="MsoNormal">JOINT EVENT: Eurographics Workshop on Material Appearance Modeling (MAM2026), MANER Conference Bordeaux 2026 (Material Appearance Network for Education and Research), and APPAMAT 2026.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Event Co-Chairs: Holly Rushmeier (Yale Univ.), Damien Muselet (La Rochelle Univ.), Romain Pacanowski (Inria, Univ. Bordeaux)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The purpose of this event, which will take place in Bordeaux, France, on <b>June 30, 2026,
</b> in conjunction with EGRS 2026 (The 37th Eurographics Symposium on Rendering,
<a href="https://egsr2026.inria.fr/">https://egsr2026.inria.fr/),</a> is to discuss and define open issues in the acquisition, modeling, perception, and applications of material appearance. In this workshop, we gather researchers and potential users of material
appearance models across disciplines and domains, to share recent research and discuss what the major challenges and problems are in this area. One output of the workshop will be a document available through the EG Digital Library (past editions are at <a href="http://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/2584"><b>http://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/2584</b></a>)
that is intended to help guide future development of material appearance modeling.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As in previous years, the workshop will include short presentations of position papers. Types of position papers include but are not limited to:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Acquisition systems<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Perceptual studies of material appearance<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Digital material authoring systems<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Fabrication of material appearance<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">New representations of material appearance<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Material appearance in AR/VR/XR<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Applications requiring high fidelity appearance modeling<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
You may also submit <b>“Appearance Reflections and Extensions”.</b> If you recently published a journal paper (including Eurographics and SIGGRAPH papers) on material appearance and have additional data, information or insights about the work beyond what was
presented in the original paper, you are welcome to present these at the workshop. Submit a <b>short abstract</b> summarizing what you will present that augments the original paper.<o:p></o:p></p>
