ISCApad #274

Sunday, April 11, 2021 by Chris Wellekens

3-3-12 (2021-05-09) 2nd Workshop on Momentary Emotion Elicitation & Capture (virtual)
  
We invite researchers and practitioners across disciplines to join us in our 2nd MEEC WS
 (https://meec-ws.com/) at CHI 2021, where the
 goal is to collaboratively sketch and define effective and ethical means of elicitation, sensing, and 
annotation of human emotions.

 
 
** CALL FOR PAPERS **
 
To train machines to sensibly detect and recognize human emotions, we need valid emotion ground truths.
 A fundamental challenge here
 is the momentary emotion elicitation and capture (MEEC) from individuals continuously and in real-time, 
without adversely affecting user 
experience nor breaching ethical standards. In this half-day virtual CHI 2021 workshop, the goals are:
 
(1) have participant talks and a keynote presentation by Prof. Mohammad Soleymani 
(2) collaboratively ideate elicitation, sensing, and annotation techniques 
(3) create mappings of when to apply an elicitation method
 
We seek contributions across disciplines that explore how emotions can be naturally elicited and captured in 
the moment. Topics include:
 
Elicitation:
? multi-modal (e.g., film, music) and multi-sensory (e.g., smell, taste, thermal) elicitation
? emotion elicitation across domains (e.g., automotive, healthcare)
? elicitation and immersiveness (e.g., AR/VR)
? elicitation over time (e.g., mood)
? ethical considerations
 
Capture:
? emotion models (dimensional, discrete)
? annotation modalities (e.g., speech, gestures) and tools (e.g., questionnaires, ESMs)
? devices (e.g., mobile, wearable) and sensors (e.g., RGB / thermal cameras, EEG, eye tracking)
? attention considerations (e.g., interruptions)
? ethical issues in tracking and detection

 
 
** HOW TO PARTICIPATE **
 
We invite position papers, posters, and demos (2-9 pages, including references) that describe/showcase 
emotion elicitation and/or 
capture methods. Submissions will be peer-reviewed by 2 peers, and selected on their potential to spark 
discussion. 
 Submissions should be prepared according to the ACM Master Article template (single column) (see CHI Publication Formats page:
 https://chi2021.acm.org/for-authors/chi-publication-formats) and submitted in PDF through Easychair
 (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=meec2021). Accepted submissions will be made available on 
the workshop website. At least one
 author must register for the workshop and one day of the conference, with (TBD) special rates for remote 
attendance.
