Intelligent monitoring systems and affective computing applications have emerged in recent years to enhance healthcare. Examples of these applications include intelligent monitoring of physiological changes and sedation states as well as assessment of affective states such as pain and depression. Though the intelligent monitoring of affective states has been around for the past several years, integrating contextual, personalized, uncertainty, and multimodal information recorded from vulnerable populations has been less explored. This information paired with transparency and explainability can lead to the development of reliable applications for automated monitoring, detection, and prediction of affective states and health conditions in vulnerable populations. Such applications can deliver tailored and prompt interventions. CAIHA workshop provides an interdisciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas on novel applications, new datasets, current challenges, and future directions. It welcomes submissions on artificial and affective intelligence methods applied to healthcare applications of vulnerable populations.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Novel approaches to model affective and sedation states, health conditions and disorders of vulnerable populations; e.g., infants, children, elderly, functionally or verbally impaired people.
- Novel approches to measure satisfaction of vulnerable patients from different modalities; e.g., text, visual, vocal, etc.
- Personalized, context-aware, and predictive modeling in intelligent and affective healthcare applications.
- Multimodal modeling in intelligent and affective healthcare applications.
- Explainability and uncertainty in intelligent and affective healthcare applications.
- Novel approaches to handle missing and noisy data in real-world environment.
- Design/development of methods/system for real-time healthcare applications and limited-resource computing devices.
- Applications of virtual reality to enhance health of vulnerable populations.
- Benchmark datasets relevant to the workshop topics.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions to CAIHA2020 should be original with no substantial overlap with any other paper already submitted or published. All persons who have made any substantial contribution to the work should be listed as authors. The peer-review process will be blind. All papers will be reviewed by at least two referees. If a paper is accepted, it is assumed that an author will register and attend the conference to present the paper. (Papers that are not presented will not be published).
The submission format should follow the Springer LNCS layout (see here for up to date guidelines). The page limit for full and short papers are as follows:
- Full paper (12-15 pages)
- Short papers (6-8 pages)
Important Dates
- Paper submission: October 10, 2020
- Decision to Authors: November 10, 2020
- Camera-ready papers due: November 15, 2020
