Papers describing high-quality original research in various areas of human-computer interaction are welcome. In light of the recent introduction of natural user interfaces as part of various consumer products, the intention is to give this year workshop a special focus on practical issues of designing HCI systems. Therefore, submissions related to the following topics will be particularly encouraged:

Robustness:
-vision algorithms robust to light, occlusions, view point, etc.
-increasing robustness by combining different sensors (e.g. multiple cameras, depth, infrared, inertial, audio)
-evaluation and comparison of algorithms and systems

Real-time implementation:
-efficient algorithms and implementation
-implementation on embedded platforms: field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable digital signal processors (DSPs), graphics processing units (GPUs), and various kinds of heterogeneous multiprocessor devices, etc.
-performance analysis and comparison (e.g. latency, system power consumption, wireless and other device communication issues)

Other practical issues:
-automatic adaptation to the user and environment (e.g. on-line learning, auto calibration)
-design, performance analysis and comparison of human-computer interaction systems (Wizard of Oz and real-system HCI user studies)
-novel applications and standardization

Selected workshop papers will be considered for a special issue of International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV).

Demos are also welcome.
