Submissions

The DAGM 2011 conference proceedings will be published in the Springer LNCS series. The proceedings will include all papers accepted for oral presentation or for poster presentation under the condition that at least one of the authors completes a full registration to the conference.

Authors should take into account the following rules:

• All papers must be written in English and submitted as a single PDF file.
• LNCS format is mandatory (see author instructions below for details).
• Papers must not contain more than 10 pages. 
• DAGM reviewing is double blind: authors do not know the names of the reviewers of their papers, and reviewers do not know the names of the authors.  Therefore please avoid any information that may identify the authors in the acknowledgments and in the supplemental material. See section 2 of the example paper for detailed information. 
• Dual submission: By submitting a manuscript to DAGM the author(s) assert(s) that it has not been previously published in substantially similar form. No paper which contains significant overlap with the contributions of this paper either has been or will be submitted during the DAGM 2011 review period to either a journal or a conference.
• In case there are papers that may appear to the reviewers to violate the dual submission policy, then it is your responsibility to (1) cite these papers - preserving anonymity as described in Section 2 of the example paper dagm2011submission.pdf, (2) argue in the body of your paper why your DAGM paper is nontrivially different from these concurrent submissions, and (3) include anonymized versions of those papers in the supplemental material.
• Note that the printed proceedings will not be in color and that many reviewers read the printed papers and not all have access to high-end color printers. Make sure to comment in the paper to request the reader to see the color online copy if it is necessary for the understanding of the figure.

• Authors may optionally upload supplementary material. Such supplementary material may include videos to showcase the proposed approach, images and other results in addition to the ones in the paper, anonymized related submissions to other conferences and journals, and appendices or technical reports containing extended proofs and mathematical derivations that are not essential to the understanding of the submitted paper.
• The authors should refer to the contents of the supplementary material appropriately in the paper. Please note that reviewers will be encouraged to look at it, but are not obligated to do so.
• All supplementary material must be uploaded as a single pdf, zip or tar file and must not be larger than 30MB.

The author kit provides a LaTeX2e template for submissions, and an example paper to demonstrate the format. Please refer to this example for detailed formatting instructions. If you intend to use something other than LaTeX to prepare your paper (e.g. MS Word), you may refer to this Springer site.

A paper ID will be allocated to you during submission. Please replace the asterisks in the example paper with your paper's own ID before uploading your file.

Paper submission is done using Microsoft CMT. The paper submission site is now open.

During the submission process you may indicate participation in the Adverse Vision Conditions Challenge. Note that submissions to the Young Researcher's Forum not submitted via the DAGM CMT system, see the Young Researcher's Forum page.
