The 19th International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2017)
will be held in Glasgow, Scotland. ICMI is the premier international forum
for multidisciplinary research on multimodal human-human and human-computer
interaction, interfaces, and system development. The conference focuses on
theoretical and empirical foundations, component technologies, and combined
multimodal processing techniques that define the field of multimodal
interaction analysis, interface design, and system development.

This year, ICMI welcomes contributions on human-computer interaction as a
particular topic of interest. We are keen to showcase novel input and
output modalities and interactions to the ICMI community.  ICMI 2017 will
feature a single-track main conference which includes: keynote speakers,
technical full and short papers (including oral and poster presentations),
demonstrations, exhibits and doctoral spotlight papers. The conference will
also feature workshops and grand challenges. The proceedings of ICMI'2017
will be published by ACM as part of their series of International
Conference Proceedings and Digital Library.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

   -

   Affective Computing and interaction
   -

   Cognitive modeling and multimodal interaction
   -

   Gesture, touch and haptics
   -

   Healthcare, assistive technologies
   -

   Human communication dynamics
   -

   Human-robot/agent multimodal interaction
   -

   Interaction with smart environment
   -

   Machine learning for multimodal interaction
   -

   Mobile multimodal systems
   -

   Multimodal behavior generation
   -

   Multimodal datasets and validation
   -

   Multimodal dialogue modeling
   -

   Multimodal fusion and representation
   -

   Multimodal interactive applications
   -

   Speech behaviors in social interaction
   -

   System components and multimodal platforms
   -

   Visual behaviors in social interaction
   -

   Virtual/augmented reality and multimodal interaction


Submission Process

There are two different submission categories:

   -

   Long paper :The maximum length is 8 pages in the two-column ACM
   conference format (excluding references). An accompanying demonstration can
   be presented during the demo session (see Demonstration section). Accepted
   long papers will be presented as either a long talk or a poster.
   -

   Short paper :The maximum length is 4 pages in the two-column ACM
   conference format (excluding references). Accepted short papers will be
   presented as either a short talk or a poster.


There will be a mixture of oral and poster presentations at the conference.
The decision of a poster or an oral presentation will be made by the
program committee. Please note that the main difference between short and
long papers is in the size of contributions and not in the importance of
the contributions. In other words, a paper in eight pages will be expected
to have more contribution than one with four pages. Rejected long papers
will not be considered for acceptance as short papers, unless the reviewers
unanimously believe this is the right decision. Authors are asked to
carefully consider the category of each submitted paper.

Rebuttal Period

During this period (from July 21st to July 25th, 2017), authors will be
able to see the reviews and post a short rebuttal addressing any major
misinterpretation or error. The rebuttal period will be followed by a
discussion period between the reviewers and Senior Program Committee
members (not visible to authors). Authors will be notified of the final
decision on August 25th, 2017.

Online Submission

For online paper submissions is through Precision Conference:
https://precisionconference.com/~icmi/

Extra material (e.g. videos) up to 40MB can be attached in the same
submission website.

Important Dates

Paper submission: 12th May 2017

Rebuttal period: July 21st to July 25th

Notification of acceptance: 25th August 2017

Camera-ready submission: September 22nd, 2017
