Acceptance rate statistics for publications in graphics/interaction/vision


The numbers were collected from many sources - conference proceedings prefaces, journal reports on conferences, Google search, and so on. There is no guarantee of correctness, yet, when possible, I was trying to double check the numbers from different sources. In cases of different sources claiming different rates, you can see different numbers in brackets. The difference can come e.g. from including or not of short papers.

When assessing acceptance rates, bear in mind that the numbers are skewed by self-selection - the authors will usually submit their work to more selective venues only if they think that they can have some chance of being accepted.

Please, let me know (mail), if you have some additional statistics, or if you see some mistakes.

Many thanks to all contributors.
