[visionlist] Call for papers: Human-Centered Computational Sensing Workshop at PerCom 2018

[Reynold Bailey]

*Call for papers*

The Human-Centered Computational Sensing (HCCS’18) Workshop at PerCom 2018
aims to advance and promote research about how unobtrusive observation of
human beings’ cognitive, behavioral, physiological, and contextual data is
increasingly enabling new computing experiences and effective intervention
opportunities. The workshop will additionally stimulate dialog about the
implications of computational sensing for society. Sensing has primarily
been understood as collecting physiological measurements, often with
wearable devices. This workshop adopts a broader, human-focused view of
sensing as capturing any measurable data linked to individuals and, by
extension, to their communities. With this understanding, sensing involves
human reactions and interactions observed in spoken, written, or signed
language, eye gaze, facial and bodily expressions, social networks,
geospatial patterns, and other such human-generated data. Advances in
multimodal human data acquisition and fusion have the potential to
significantly impact all areas of human life including productivity, health
and well-being, training and education, human-computer interaction,
accessibility, safety and security, as well as gaming, sports, and
entertainment.

Topics include but are not limited to:

   -

   Novel methodologies for collecting, processing, and interpreting
   multimodal human sensing data
   -

   Co-sensing of multiple individuals, groups, or communities
   -

   Proximal, distant, or remote human sensing
   -

   Fusion of multifaceted, heterogeneous, and/or incommensurable human
   sensing data
   -

   Performance efficiency across hardware and cloud contexts
   -

   Applications of human-centered computational sensing
   -

   Creative visualizations and representations of human sensing data
   -

   Emerging human sensing mechanisms
   -

   Evaluation metrics and methodologies
   -

   Privacy and ethical considerations

Submission and Registration:

Authors are invited to submit technical or theoretical papers for
presentation at the workshop, describing original, previously unpublished
work, which is not currently under review by another workshop, conference,
or journal. Papers should present novel perspectives within the general
scope of the workshop. Accepted workshop papers will be included and
indexed in the IEEE digital libraries (Xplore).



Papers may be no more than 6 pages in length. Papers in excess of page
limits shall not be considered for review or publication. All papers must
be typeset in double-column IEEE format using 10pt fonts on US letter
paper, with all fonts embedded. The IEEE LaTeX and Microsoft Word
templates, as well as related information, can be found at the
<http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html>IEEE
website (
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html
).



Submit papers using the EDAS Conference and Journal Management System (
http://edas.info/23941). It is a requirement that all authors listed in the
submitted paper are also listed in EDAS. If the list of authors differs
between the paper and EDAS, the paper may not be reviewed.



In order to appear in the proceedings and to be scheduled for presentation,
each accepted workshop paper requires a full PerCom registration (no
registration is available for workshops only).

Important Dates:

   -

   Workshop paper submissions: November 11, 2017, 23:59 EST
   -

   Paper notifications: December 23, 2017
