Meeting Description:

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.


Call for Papers:

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at the workshop, describing original, previously unpublished work, which is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 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
Camera ready submissions: January 12, 2018
HCCS’18 is co-located with PerCom 2018 in Athens, Greece: March 19-23, 2018

Workshop co-chairs:

Cecilia Ovesdotter Alm, RIT 
Reynold Bailey, RIT
Ehsan Hoque, University of Rochester
