ETRA 2008
Eye Tracking Research & Applications
<http://www.e-t-r-a.org>
Symposium 2008
26-28 March 2008, Savannah, GA, USA
Call for Participation
Sponsored by
ACM SIGCHI and ACM SIGGRAPH
MOTIVATION
ETRA 2008 will be the fifth biennial symposium in a series focused
on all aspects of eye movement research across a wide range of disciplines.
The goal of ETRA is to bring together computer scientists, engineers
and behavioral scientists in support of a common vision of enhancing
eye tracking research and applications.
SYMPOSIUM THEMES
Advances in Eye-Tracking Technology
Eye-tracking systems, software, and algorithms, eye movement analysis
techniques and predictive models
Visual Attention and Eye Movement Control
Studies of eye movement guidance during natural stimuli and behaviors,
driving, web surfing, usability studies
Eye Tracking Applications
Gaze-contingent displays, attentive user interfaces, human computer
interaction, assistive technologies
Special Theme: Usability and Ubiquity
Eye tracking has become a fairly popular though still expensive option
in usability studies. Meanwhile, several approaches have recently
been developed for inexpensive do-it-yourself (DIY) eye tracking systems.
Webcam-based solutions for course-grained analysis are quite plausible
on commonly available systems (e.g., Apple’s MacBook Pro with built-in
iSight). We invite submissions that explore new methodological approaches
which demonstrate significant improvement over existing ones. Results from
a usability perspective as well as novel strategies for ubiquitous
eye tracking deployment are particularly welcome.
SUBMISSION FORMAT
Two categories of submissions are being sought: Full Papers and Late-Breaking
Results.
Full papers must be submitted electronically through the ETRA website
and conform to the ACM SIGGRAPH proceedings category 2 format. Full papers
submission can be a maximum length of eight pages. Full paper submissions
should be made in double-blind format, hiding authors' names and affiliations
and all references to the authors' previous work. Accepted papers will be
published in the ETRA 2008 proceedings. Authors will present a full talk
(20 minutes) at the conference.
Late-Breaking Results must be submitted electronically through the ETRA
website and conform to the ACM SIGGRAPH proceedings category 3 format.
Late-Breaking Results submissions can be a maximum length of four pages
(but can be as short as a one-page abstract). Given the time constraints
of this format, submissions must be made in camera-ready format
including authors' names and affiliations. Accepted submissions will be
published in the ETRA 2008 proceedings. Authors will present a poster at
the conference. The most highly rated submissions will be selected for
additional presentation as a short talk (10 minutes) in a Late-Breaking
Results session.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed by members of the program committee.
Best Paper Awards will be given to the most highly ranked full and
Late Breaking Results papers.
