HSI 2021 will include Special Sessions on highly specialized topic areas reporting technical trends and breakthroughs in human-system interaction. HSI 2021 cordially invites you to organize special sessions. Papers in these sessions undergo a regular review process as those in general sessions.
Special Sessions Chair: Hui Yu (UK)
1. Human system interaction in biomedical engineering
Organizer(s): Mariusz Kaczmarek, Gdańsk University of Technology, Paweł Strumiłło, Lodz University of Technology
With today’s diverse use and application of computers and specialized devices for specific tasks, such as biomechanical and biomedical devices, the interaction design requires special care. With the inclusion of embedded systems and intelligent devices based on artificial intelligence, such interaction must be extremely well thought out. The complexity of the systems, instrumentation and simulators that nowadays become available will increase. There is one more problem, realize that medical teams are becoming more dependent on technology so there is a danger that they will lose a lot of skills and rules. In this special session we will try to present several aspects, i.e. how to prevent the loss of skills, how to improve task analysis, hand-eye coordination, signal and image processing, visualization, instrument design and protocol definition for better human-computer / device interaction in the biomedical field. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
2. Human System Interaction Solutions for Ambient Assisted Living (HSIAAL 2021)
Organizer(s): Piotr Augustyniak, AGH University of Science and Technology, Adam Bujnowski, Gdańsk University of Technology, Alexey Andrushevich IHomeLab, Lucerne University of Applied Sciences
Ambient Assisted Living aims at extending the time older people could stay in their home environment by sustaining their autonomy. It would be achieved by assisting them in daily living activities and by developing “invisible” services including care ones. Among others, it’s seems that human system interaction achievements will determine a further development of AAL systems. The special session is devoted to the following, but not only limited to, topics:
3. “Recent Advances on Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning for Human System Interaction”
Organizer(s):
Prof. Mounîm A. El Yacoubi, Institut Polytechnique de Paris, France (mounim.el_yacoubi@telecom-sudparis.eu)
Prof. Mehdi Ammi, University of Paris 8, France (mehdi.ammi@univ-paris8.fr)
Dr Hassane Essafi, CEA List, France (hassane.essafi@cea.fr)
Prof. Hui Yu, University of Portsmouth, UK (hui.yu@port.ac.uk)
Thanks to the huge increase of computing power and resources and to the breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence and deep learning over the last years, the field of Human System Interaction has witnessed a dramatic development and success stories on a wide range of fields. The latter include but are not limited to Human Computer Interaction Mediated communication, Social Media, e Health WellBeing, Education, Biomet rics, Video Surveillance Cybersecurity, Smart Manufacturing, Coaching Robots Chatbots, Smart Agriculture, Robotics, Sport Analytics, Social Sciences, Entertainment, Finance. The aim of this special issue is to highlight recent advances and trends of AI /deep learning that made possible such breakthroughs in connection with machine interaction.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
