Goals

Human computer interaction (HCI) is one of the foremost challenges of our society. New paradigms for interacting with computers are being developed which will define the 21st century and enable the world to communicate and interact effortlessly and intuitively.

In order for HCI systems to interact seamlessly with people, they will need to understand their environment through vision and auditory input. Moreover, HCI systems should learn how to adaptively and intelligently respond depending on the context.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers whose work is related to human computer interaction. We are soliciting original contributions which address a wide range of theoretical and application issues in human computer interaction including, but not limited to:

* New paradigms in HCI
* Affective detection and recognition
* Smart interfaces
* Human motion tracking
* Gesture recognition
* Multimedia data modeling and visualization
* Multimodal event detection and recognition
* Human motion and gesture recognition
* HCI issues in image/video retrieval
* Learning in HCI
* Input and interaction techniques
* Perceptual user interfaces
* Wearable and pervasive technologies in HCI
* Intelligent Virtual Environments

Authors should preferably use the paper submission web system at

http://press.liacs.nl/hci2007/submit.html

(no longer than 10 pages in the Springer LNCS style in English).

All submissions will be peer-reviewed. The proceedings will be published by the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Its preferable if the submitted papers do not have the author names within the PDF file to allow for double-blind reviewing.
