Workshops
The ICMI workshop program aims to provide researchers with a more
informal and discussion oriented forum to discuss emerging topics in
multimodal interaction or old ones from a new angle. This year we
have selected the following three workshops to be held on the last
day of the conference:
The first is a new addition to the workshops last year, while the
second and the third are continuation of the previous workshops. In
addition, we have also agreed that
the EmotiW
Challenge on the first day will include an extended session for
workshop-style discussions. We hope that they will allow the
participants to understand selected topics through in-depth
discussions.

International Workshop on Emotion
Representations and Modelling for Human-Computer Interaction
Systems
This full-day workshop offers a platform for researchers working on
and with emotion representations and modelling for Human-Computer
Interaction (HCI) systems. Emotion representations and models are
often both modality and discipline specific and hence hardly
interoperable. Currently, several solutions on incorporating
emotions in HCI systems exist; however, these solutions depend
heavily on the scope, application and modalities used. The applied
concepts tend to be highly specific and layer dependent, often
lacking universality and interoperability. The workshop encourages
the discussion of both technical and theoretical approaches to
emotion modelling and representations in order to aid in the
development of efficient, verifiable, interoperable and applicable
emotion models for affective systems.

The 6th Workshop on Eye Gaze in
Intelligent Human Machine Interaction: Gaze in Multimodal
Interaction at ACM ICMI 2013
In this full day workshop we will discuss issues of eye gaze
relevant to multimodal interaction and intelligent user
interfaces. These include technologies for sensing human attentional
behaviors, roles of attentional behaviors and social gaze in
human-human and human-machine/robot interaction, attentional
behaviors in problem-solving and task-performing, gaze-based
intelligent user interfaces, and evaluation of gaze-based UI. The
theme of 2013 GazeIn workshop is gaze in multimodal interaction.

2nd workshop on Smart Material
Interfaces: Another Step to a Material Future
Imagine a world where objects physically react to emotions,
presence or user's actions and the environment shapes accordingly to
our needs. Nowadays we are seeing the beginning of such an
interactive sphere (organic interfaces, reality-based interactions,
etc.), interfacing humans with smart environments.
With this workshop we want to draw attention to the emerging field
of Smart Material Interfaces. This field takes advantage of the
latest generation of engineered materials that has a special
property defined "smart".
Smart materials are capable of changing their physical properties,
such as shape, size and color, and can be controlled by using
certain stimuli (light, potential difference, temperature and so
on). We aim at stimulating research and development in interfaces
that make novel use of smart materials, and our workshop will
provide a platform for state-of-the-art design of Smart Material
Interfaces.
We invite original contributions in a variety of areas related to
interaction design and development of interfaces that makes use of
SMART MATERIALS. Main topic of interest is the application of smart
materials in designing and building interfaces that communicate
information to the user - or allow the user to manipulate
information - using different modalities provided by the material's
properties.
In order to establish a rich live demo session throughout the
conference for this second workshop, we want to particularly
encourage the submission of research that includes physical live
demonstrators and experimental prototypes.
