Welcome to the 1st International Conference on Quantification in Visual Computing! In our scientific communities, we have been witnessing a dramatic growth in research of the various fields of visual computing, ranging from computer graphics, visualization, computer vision, image processing all the way to human-computer interaction. At the same time, there has been an increasing trend to cross between these fields of visual computing, e.g., methods from computer vision and computer graphics are linked for advanced modeling and generating image and video content; and approaches from human-computer interaction and visualization are combined to facilitate visual analytics.

This conference brings together researchers from all disciplines of visual computing to foster further links and exchange of ideas. Our particular focus is on quantification, which plays a major role in evaluating and validating visual computing methods. Therefore, it is a critical part of research in our maturing field. The topic of quantification is also covered by the DFG-funded Transregional Collaborative Research Center (SFB/Transregio) 161 (Quantitative Methods for Visual Computing), which is hosting this conference.

We look forward to many people taking part!
