ABSTRACT
=========
Commensality, the act of eating together, offers rich opportunities for
multisensory and social experiences that can be enhanced through
technology. Dining involves interactions with food, where smells,
colors, sounds, and textures contribute to a multisensory experience;
likewise, the table becomes a focal point for social interaction, with
non verbal cues and conversations being indispensable elements of the event.
This workshop aims to explore how interactive, immersive, and otherwise
emergent technology can enrich eating experiences. The other aim is to
build an interdisciplinary community around the topics of related to
commensality and human-food interaction, with special focus on the role
of multimodal interaction among commensal partners sharing food, being
humans or artificial dining companions (such as social robots). We aim
to collect novel contributions that explore how technology can enhance,
facilitate, or make these experiences more enjoyable.
======
TOPICS
======
Topics of Interest include but are not limited to:
• Multimodal interaction in commensal setting
• Commensal activity recognition
• Cultural aspects of commensality
• Artificial agents (social robots, virtual companions) in
commensality setting
• Interactive technology for sustainable. healthy eating and
well-being
• Tele- and remote dining
• Food and eating as playful experience
• Commensality and food interaction in digital (VR/AR) spaces
• Critical human-food interaction design and research
• Food, interactive tech, and sustainability
• Multimodal food perception

March 24-27, 2025 https://iui.acm.org/2025/ <https://iui.acm.org/2024/>
Call for Proposals
We are pleased to invite proposals for workshops and tutorials to be
held in conjunction with the conference.
The goal of workshops is to provide a venue for presenting research on
focused topics of interest and an informal forum to discuss research
questions and challenges. Potential workshop topics should be related to
the general theme of the conference (“Where HCI meets AI”).
Tutorials are designed to provide fundamental knowledge and experience
on topics related to intelligent user interfaces, and the intersection
between Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Note: We encourage you to contact the chairs with your ideas
(workshops2025(a)iui.acm.org), and work together to prepare an exciting
proposal.
We encourage proposals for a wide range of workshop and tutorial formats
and activities, including but not limited to:
*
"Mini-conferences" on specialized topics; such workshops may have
their own paper submission and review processes.
*
Interactive formats to explore a certain topic during the workshop
(e.g., through breakout rooms); such workshops may have their own
paper submission and review process or target a report summarizing
the outcome of the interactive discussions.
*
"Late breaking work" meetings; such workshops usually have a lighter
review process (e.g. based on abstracts only).
*
"Hands-on" workshopsaround a specific problem or topic that may wish
to ask participants to submit a position statement.
*
"Project centric" workshopsthat may be closely related to the scope
of an existing large-scale (e.g. NSF, EU, etc. funded) project.
*
"Mini-competitions", challenges, or hackathons around selected
topics with individual or team participation.
*
Tutorials on a specific topic relevant to IUI; for example, methods
and approaches in HCI and/or AI, specific techniques or algorithms
to develop intelligent user interfaces, etc.
We invite submissions of proposals for full-day and half-day workshops
or tutorials. Proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by the workshop
and tutorial chairs.
Workshops with few submissions may be cancelled, shortened, merged with
other workshops, or otherwise restructured. The organizers of accepted
workshops and tutorials are responsible for producing a call for
participation and publicizing it, such as distributing the call to
relevant newsgroups and electronic mailing lists, and especially to
potential audiences from outside the IUI conference community. Workshop
and tutorial organizers will maintain their own website with information
about the workshop or tutorial and the ACM IUI 2025 website will refer
to this website. The workshop organizers will coordinate the paper
solicitation, collection, and review process. Workshops’ and tutorials’
summary will be included in the ACM Digital Library for ACM IUI 2025,
and we will separately publish a joint workshop proceedings for accepted
workshop submissions (through CEUR or similar).
Proposal Format
Workshop or tutorial proposals should be a maximum of four pages long
(single-column format). Prepare your submission using the latest
templates: Word Submission
(https://authors.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/taps/acm_submi…)
Template, or the LaTeX
(https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip)
