Location: Beijing, China

 

Important Dates: 

Paper Submission Deadline: 10 January 2018 

Notification of Acceptance: 6 March 2018 

Camera Ready Papers Due: 23 March 2018

Conference: 20 -22 May 2018

 

The first AAAC Asian Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent
Interaction (ACII Asia 2018) is the premier Asian forum for
interdisciplinary research on the design of systems that can recognize,
interpret, and simulate human emotions and related affective phenomena. ACII
Asia 2018 will be held in the historic city Beijing, China 20-22 May 2018. 

 

The theme of ACII Asia 2018 will be "Affective Intelligence". ACII Asia 2018
will emphasize the collaboration between engineering and human sciences
(including biological, social and cultural aspects of human life) and
highlight the impact and applications of affective computing technologies in
the wider world. Within affective science more broadly, there is an
explosion of interest in realizing more natural human-computer interaction
by taking affective computing into consideration. Also, understanding of how
emotion is represented in the brain and how it shapes the body in biological
processes is welcomed in ACII Asia 2018. 

 

The meeting will be jointly hosted by the Technical Committee on
Human-Computer-Interaction of China Society of Image and Graphics (CSIG),
the Technical Committee on Artificial Psychology and Artificial Emotion of
the Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence (CAAI), the Local
Interest Group Asia of the Association for the Advancement of Affective
Computing (AAAC) and Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Science
(CASIA). 

 

Proceedings are proposed to be submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore.
