    Call For Papers


    SCOPE: 

    The goal of this conference is to explore the role of human perception and cognition in the design, analysis, and use of electronic media systems. Over the years, it has brought together researchers from a wide variety of disciplines, from all over the world, for a rich and lively exchange of ideas. We believe that understanding that the human observer is fundamental to the advancement of electronic media systems, and that advances in these systems and applications are driving new research into the perception and cognition of the human observer.  

    Papers are solicited for:

    Special Sessions

    • Visual, auditory, and textile texture
    • fMRI and perception
    • Attention and perception in multimedia search
    • Visualization and cognition in interactive exploration of massive data sets

    Human Perception and Cognition

    • Models and experimental research
