https://icmi.acm.org/2020/index.php?id=CfW
***********************************************************************************
The International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2020) will be
held in Utrecht, the Netherlands, October 25-29, 2020. ICMI is the premier
international conference for multidisciplinary research on multimodal
human-human and human-computer interaction analysis, interface design, and
system development. The theme of the ICMI 2020 conference is Art, Culture,
and Society. ICMI has developed a tradition of hosting workshops in
conjunction with the main conference to foster discourse on new research,
technologies, social science models and applications. Examples of recent
workshops include:
- Media Analytics for Societal Trends
- Neuromanagement and Intelligent Computing
- Multi-sensorial Approaches to Human-Food Interaction
- Group Interaction Frontiers in Technology
- Modeling Cognitive Processes from Multimodal Data
- Human-Habitat for Health
- Multimodal Analyses enabling Artificial Agents in Human-Machine
Interaction
- Investigating Social Interactions with Artificial Agents
- Child Computer Interaction
- Multimodal Interaction for Education
We are seeking workshop proposals on emerging research areas related to the
main conference topics, and those that focus on multi-disciplinary
research. We would also strongly encourage workshops that will include a
diverse set of keynote speakers (factors to consider include: gender,
ethnic background, institutions, years of experience, geography, etc.).
The content of accepted workshops are under the control of the workshop
organizers. Workshops may be of a half-day or one day in duration. Workshop
organizers will be expected to manage the workshop content, solicit
submissions, be present to moderate the discussion and panels, invite
experts in the domain, conduct the reviewing process, and maintain a
website for the workshop. Workshop papers will be indexed by ACM Digital
Library in an adjunct proceedings, and a short workshop summary by the
organizers will be published in the main conference proceedings.
