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 to
submit full papers at

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

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

All papers will be peer-reviewed. In the tradition of the
previous 3 meetings, these proceedings will also be
published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
