Conceiving social robots or agents means that they should be able to interact naturally with humans. Thus, they should be equipped with capabilities that enable them to understand the user’s actions, behaviours, and mental and emotional states just like a human naturally does. Engagement is an important aspect to be considered in the design of such machines. However, despite the growing number of papers on it, rigorous definitions of engagement compatible with computational models are still needed.<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The ENHANCE workshop focuses on engagement modeling and recognition. It will cover theory, computational models, algorithms and techniques for the automatic analysis of engagement in human-human and human-machine in dyadic and multiparty interaction scenarios. This workshop addresses, for example, the following research questions: How to establish a generally accepted definition of engagement? How to take into account context in engagement models? How to engage more than one user at a time? What are the minimal sets of non-verbal features that are needed to perform an accurate recognition of engagement? How to establish a general model of engagement that takes into account all the components of engagement?<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">______________<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">LIST OF TOPICS<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">______________<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We encourage papers and demos addressing, but not limited to, the following research topics:<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Theoretical approaches to engagement in human machine interaction<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Analysis of non-verbal behaviour relevant to engagement recognition<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Analysis of physiological signals for engagement recognition<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Audio/visual/physiological fusion for engagement recognition<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Engagement modelling in multi-party interactions<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">- Context-aware engagement recognition systems<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">_________________________<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">SUBMISSIONS AND REVISIONS<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">_________________________<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Submissions should follow the IEEE conference paper format.<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Submissions should include: title, author(s), affiliation(s), e-mail address(es), tel/fax number(s), and postal address(es).<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The papers have to be submitted at the following link <a href="https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=enhance2015" style="color:purple" target="_blank">https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=enhance2015</a><u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Both accepted papers and demos will be presented at the workshop as oral presentation or in a demo session.
