[Asis-l] Call for Papers - Special issue on Multimodal Interfaces

[Yves Rybarczyk]

*EAI Transactions on Creative Technologies *

*Special issue on Multimodal Interfaces for Natural Interactions *

*Call for Papers *

*Main submission deadline*: May 25th, 2014

*AIMS AND SCOPE *

Creativity and user interfaces become an application field of cutting edge
technologies like human behavior tracking and understanding, social signal
processing, artificial intelligence systems or embodied agents.

EAI Transactions on Creative Technologies aims in providing a forge between
science, technology and human factors on one side, and creative industries
on the other side naturally leading to the theme of this special issue:
“where technology gets closer to the human being”.

This special issue aims to encourage and publish research about the
challenges and new trends associated with applying multimodal interactions
and natural user interfaces to education, entertainment and assistive
technologies in a creative way or to foster human creativity. The
publications can be either long or short papers (
http://eai.eu/transaction/creative-technologies) related to the three main
applications domains listed below:

*APPLICATION DOMAINS *

*Human factor perspective *

- Telepresence, immersion feeling and body ownership

- Human-machine cooperation in teleoperation and telerobotics

- Usability and ergonomic systems

- User experience

- Human performance in virtual and augmented reality

- Intuitive interfaces and personalized systems in real

and virtual environments

- Involvement of original sensorial modalities in HCI (e.g.

proprioception, touch, smell, ...)

- Human behavior analysis for media personalization and

motivation/emotions discovery (head/eye/face/body tracking)

- Multimodality for biometric interfaces

- ...

*Technologies for gaming and entertainment *

- Creative interfaces for games and serious games

- One or a set of robots interaction with human players

- Augmented instruments and new digital instruments

Characters

- Real-time HQ data processing

- Linked TV and web media

- Mobile movement/localization and multimedia data visualization

and browsing

- Adaptive and intelligent projections on buildings or inside

buildings (e.g., walls, objects, ...)

- ...

*Assistive and educative technologies *
