***************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS 2015 GENETIC AND EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION CONFERENCE (GECCO-2015) DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGIES AND ART TRACK July 11-15, 2015, Madrid, Spain Organized by ACM SIGEVO http://www.sigevo.org/gecco-2015/organizers-tracks.html ***************************************************************** Arts, music, and games are key application fields for evolutionary computation, computational intelligence, and biologically inspired techniques. The digital entertainment technologies and arts (DETA) track invites submissions describing original work involving the use of computation in the creative arts, including design, games, and music. In all accepted work there must be some connection to evolutionary computation, computational intelligence, or biologically inspired algorithms. Topics include but are not limited to: *Aesthetic measurement and control Machine learning for predicting or controlling aesthetic preference Aesthetic measures for sound, photos, textures and other content Non-realistic rendering, animations Content-based similarity or recommendation User modeling *Biologically-inspired creativity Evolutionary arts and evolutionary algorithms for creative applications Interactive evolutionary algorithms Creative virtual ecosystems Artificial creative agents Definition or classification of creativity *Interactive environments and games Virtual worlds Reactive worlds and immersive environments Procedural content generation Game AI Intelligent interactive narrative Learning and adaptation in games Search methods for games Player experience measurement and optimization *Composition, synthesis, generative arts Visual art, architecture and design Creative writing Cinema music composition and sound synthesis Generative art Synthesis of textures, images, animations Generation or learning of environmental responses Stylistic recognition and classification *Analysis of computational intelligence techniques for games, music and the arts As a multidisciplinary track, the DETA track will be an excellent meeting point for artists and computer scientists looking for new applications, problems and techniques that might produce synergies of interest for both worlds.
