ICMI 2020: 2nd Call for Long and Short Papers

by Leimin Tian

*************************************** ICMI 2020: 2nd Call for Long and Short Papers http://icmi.acm.org/2020/index.php?id=cfp 25-29 Oct 2020, Utrecht, The Netherlands *************************************** Call for Long and Short Papers The 22nd International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2020) will be held in Utrecht, the Netherlands. ICMI is the premier international forum for multidisciplinary research on multimodal human-human and human-computer interaction, interfaces, and system development. The conference focuses on theoretical and empirical foundations, component technologies, and combined multimodal processing techniques that define the field of multimodal interaction analysis, interface design, and system development. We are keen to showcase novel input and output modalities and interactions to the ICMI community. ICMI 2020 will feature a single-track main conference which includes: keynote speakers, technical full and short papers (including oral and poster presentations), demonstrations, exhibits and doctoral spotlight papers. The conference will also feature workshops and grand challenges. The proceedings of ICMI 2020 will be published by ACM as part of their series of International Conference Proceedings and Digital Library. We also want to welcome conference papers from behavioral and social sciences. These papers allow us to understand how technology can be used to increase our scientific knowledge and may focus less on presenting technical or algorithmic novelty. For this reason, the "novelty" criteria used during ICMI 2020 review will be based on two sub-criteria (i.e., scientific novelty and technical novelty as described below). Accepted papers at ICMI 2020 only need to be novel on one of these sub-criteria. In other words, a paper which is strong on scientific knowledge contribution but low on algorithmic novelty should be ranked similarly to a paper that is high on algorithmic novelty but low on knowledge discovery. - Scientific Novelty: Papers should bring some new knowledge to the scientific community. For example, discovering new behavioral markers that are predictive of mental health or how new behavioral patterns relate to children’s interactions during learning. It is the responsibility of the authors to perform a proper literature review and clearly discuss the novelty in the scientific discoveries made in their paper. - Technical Novelty: Papers reviewed with this sub-criterion should include novelty in their computational approach for recognizing, generating or modeling data. Examples include: novelty in the learning and prediction algorithms, in the neural architecture, or in the data representation. Novelty can also be associated to a new usage of an existing approach. Please see the Submission Guidelines for Authors https://icmi.acm.org/2020/index.php?id=authors for detailed submission instructions. This year’s conference theme: In this information age, technological innovation is at the core of our lives and rapidly transforming and impacting the state of the world in art, culture, and society, and science as well - the borders between classical disciplines such as humanities and computer science are fading. In particular, we wonder how multimodal processing of human behavioural data can create meaningful impact in art, culture, and society practices. And vice versa, how does art, culture, and society influence our approaches and techniques in multimodal processing? As such, this year, ICMI welcomes contributions on our theme for Multimodal processing and representation of Human Behaviour in Art, Culture, and Society. Additional topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Affective computing and interaction - Cognitive modeling and multimodal interaction - Gesture, touch and haptics - Healthcare, assistive technologies - Human communication dynamics - Human-robot/agent multimodal interaction - Interaction with smart environment - Machine learning for multimodal interaction - Mobile multimodal systems - Multimodal behavior generation - Multimodal datasets and validation - Multimodal dialogue modeling - Multimodal fusion and representation - Multimodal interactive applications - Speech behaviors in social interaction - System components and multimodal platforms - Visual behaviours in social interaction - Virtual/augmented reality and multimodal interaction Important Dates *Paper Submission: May 4, 2020 (11:59pm GMT-7)* Reviews to authors: July 3, 2020 Rebuttal due: July 10, 2020 (11:59pm GMT-7) Paper notification: July 20, 2020 Camera ready paper: August 17, 2020 Presenting at main conference: October 25-29, 2020

Apologies for cross-posting ******************************** Dear Colleagues, Please find below the invitation to contribute to the: Affect Recognition in-the-wild: Uni/Multi-Modal Analysis Workshop, which will be held in conjunction with the IEEE Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG) Conference 2020 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 18-22 May 2020. Website: https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/affect-recognition-wild-unimulti-modal-… SCOPE: ------------ The workshop aims at advancing the state-of-the-art in the problem of analysis of human affective behavior in-the-wild. It solicits any original paper on databases, benchmarks and technical contributions related to affect recognition, using audio, visual or other modalities (e.g., EEG), in unconstrained conditions. Either uni-modal, or multi-modal approaches will be considered. It would be of particular interest to see methodologies that study detection of action units based on audio data (with the recent development of the largest in-the-wild audiovisual database, Aff-Wild2, annotated in terms of three behavior tasks: valence-arousal, basic expressions and action units). The scope of the workshop includes but is not limited to contributions in the following topics: (a) databases for spontaneous and naturalistic: i) facial expression or micro-expression analysis, or ii) facial action unit detection, or iii) valence-arousal estimation, ”in the-wild”. (b) methodologies for: i) facial expression or micro-expression analysis, or ii) facial action unit detection, or iii) valence-arousal estimation, ”in the wild”; The methodologies can use uni-modal or multi-modal information (e.g., visual, audio data, hand and body gestures, EEG, EDA) (c) methodologies for action unit prediction from audio (e.g., using Aff-Wild2, which is an audiovisual database) (d) domain-adaptation techniques for the above described behavior tasks (either using Aff-Wild2, or any other database, or combination of databases). IMPORTANT DATES: ----------------------------- • 14 February 2020 - Paper submission deadline • 21 February 2020 - Review decisions sent to authors; Notification of acceptance • 28 February 2020 - Camera ready version deadline Accepted workshop papers will appear at IEEE FG 2020 proceedings.
