http://www.acm.org/icmi/2010/

The Twelfth International Conference on Multimodal Interfaces and the

Seventh Workshop on Machine Learning for Multimodal Interaction will be

held jointly in Beijing China during November 8-12, 2010. The primary aim

of ICMI-MLMI 2010 is to further scientific research within the broad

field of multimodal interaction, methods, and systems, focusing on major

trends and challenges, and working towards identifying a roadmap for

future research and commercial success. The conference will continue to

feature a single-track with keynote speakers, technical paper

presentations, poster sessions, a doctoral consortium, and

demonstrations of state of the art multimodal systems and concepts. The

conference will be followed by workshops.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    - Multimodal input and output interfaces

    - Multimodal human behavior analysis

    - Machine learning methods for multimodal processing

    - Fusion techniques and hybrid architectures

    - Processing of language and action patterns

    - Gaze and vision-based interfaces

    - Speech and conversational interfaces

    - Pen-based interfaces

    - Haptic interfaces

    - Brain-computer interfaces

    - Cognitive modeling of users  

    - Multi-biometric interfaces

    - Multimodal-multisensor interfaces

    - Interfaces for attentive and intelligent environments

    - Mobile, tangible and virtual/augmented multimodal interfaces

    - Distributed/collaborative multimodal interfaces

    - Tools and system infrastructure issues for designing multimodal interfaces

    - Evaluation of multimodal interfaces

    - AI techniques and adaptive multimodal interfaces
