ACM International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2015)
November 9-13, 2015, Seattle, WA, USA

http://icmi.acm.org/2015/
===================================================================

ICMI is the premier international forum for multidisciplinary research on multimodal interaction and multimodal interfaces. The conference focuses on theoretical and empirical foundations, component technologies, and combined multimodal processing techniques that define the field of multimodal interaction analysis, interface design, and integrative, multimodal system development.

ICMI'2015 will take place between November 9th and 13th at Motif Hotel in Seattle (USA). The main conference is single-track and includes: keynote speakers, technical full and short papers (including oral and poster presentations), special sessions, demonstrations, exhibits and doctoral spotlight papers. The conference will also feature workshops and grand challenges. The proceedings of ICMI'2015 will be published by ACM as part of their series of International Conference Proceedings.
