Workshop on "Workshop on Practical Experiences in Measuring and
Modeling Drivers and Driver-Vehicle Interactions" (@AutoUI'2015)
[our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP]
We are pleased to announce the following workshop offered in conjunction
with the 6th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces
and Interactive Vehicular Applications (AutomotiveUI 2015):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
| AutomotiveUI 2015 Workshop on PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES in |
| Measuring and Modeling Drivers and Driver-Vehicle Interactions |
| |
| Nottingham, UK; September 1st, 2015 |
| colocated with AutomotiveUI 2015 (http://www.auto-ui.org/15) |
| |
| Workshop website: http://www.pervasive.jku.at/AutoUI15WS/ |
| Submission deadline: July 13th, 2015 |
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------| OBJECTIVES: MODELING AND MEASURING INTERACTIONS |-----------
The goal of the workshop is to bring together both young and experienced
researchers in the field of automotive UI research and discuss
settings, experiences, best practices, etc. for conducting lab or field
experiments. This includes discussions about how to improve user studies
(setting), what types of sensors and recording platforms are suitable
for which studies, feasibility of results (e.g., transfer of lab
results to real scenarios), which should help "new" researchers (first
year PhD or before) that are just starting with auto UI research to
learn from the experience and mistakes of others.
Submissions can span the range from small-scale studies to large-scale
deployments, from the l ab to the field, with small or large number of
participants. We are interested in understanding the various protocols
and contexts used in different automotive UI studies. These works should
provide us with an opportunity in the workshop to explain the methodo-
logy and discuss pros and cons of the chosen approach, etc.
---------------------------| WORKSHOP THEMES |--------------------------
Potential topics to be discussed at the workshop include, but are not
limited to:
1) Measuring and Modeling of the Driver
* Sensors in driving simulators vs. sensors in commercial vehicles
(used in on-road studies)
* Cameras and multi-camera arrays
* Depth/Infrared/Acoustic sensors
* "Brought-in sensors" such as smartphones
* Contextual databases/sensors (contact lists, addresses, etc.)
* Neuroergonomic sensors (e.g., EEG, fNIRS, ECG, EMG, fEMG, SCR, etc.)
* Driver emotion models
* Driver intent models
* Shared situational awareness
* "The driver as sensor"
2) Measuring and Modeling of Driving
* Best-known methods for modeling driving behaviors in on-road and
simulator studies
* Feasibility of the lane change task
* Detection response and peripheral detection task (PDT) [1]
* Best-known methods in qualitative & quantitative data gathering
* Examples of good/bad experimental settings
* Settings to use for tests in mixed automated settings
* How to test interaction with autonomous cars in the exterior
(pedestrians vs. autonomous vehicles)
* Simulator studies settings (platform, connected sensors/actuators,
data extraction and processing, synchronization issues)
* Study design (lab, on-road; comparison lab vs. field, Wizard of Oz,
Safety of test subjects, etc.)
3) Measuring and Modeling for Explicit Interactions
* Sensors for Natural User Interaction (NUI )(Leap motion, Kinect, Myo,
Emotiv, Neurosky, etc.)
* Testing from OEMs and HW providers point-of-view
* Main issues and constraints of the in-vehicle environment
* How to recognize deliberate commands from random in-car activities
* Discussion on standards (for gestures, tactile feedback, etc.)
-----------------------------| SUBMISSIONS |----------------------------
We allow the submission of 1-4 page papers (in CHI EA format)
describing a crisp, self-contained problem in the field of the
workshop. Successful submissions will have the potential to raise
discussion, provide insights for other attendees, or illustrate
problems and provide potential solutions.
Please submit your contribution using the ACM SIGCHI extended abstracts
(EA) format (http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform) through the
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=autoui2015) paper
submission system. More details are available at the workshop website.
Submissions need not to be anonymous. However, reviews will be done
anonymously using an evaluation form. Each paper will receive at least
two reviews. The selection of workshop participants will be done by a
review process. Final decisions of accepting or rejecting a paper will
be made by the organizers of the workshop based on the review scores
and with respect to offering all workshop participants an interesting,
diversified program.
Registration for the main conference is mandatory for all workshop
participants, but there are no additional costs for attending the
workshop beyond the main conference registration fee.
------------------| IMPORTANT DATES FOR THE WORKSHOP |------------------
