Due to requests, we have extended the deadline for the CEA2010 Workshop to *JULY 23*. Please find attached the latest CFP. -------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers -------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Workshop on Multimedia for Cooking and Eating Activities in conjunction with The IEEE International Symposium on Multimedia (ISM2010) The Splendor Hotel Taichung, Taiwan December 13-15, 2010 http://www.ccm.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp/CEA2010/ Cooking is one of the most fundamental activities of humankind. It is not only connected with the joy of eating but also deeply affects various aspects of human life such as health, dietary, culinary art, entertainment, and human communication. Many people who cook at home require supports for cooking because it requires experience and knowledge. They may also need support for food-logging and menu planning for the well-being of their family. Needless to say, support for a good and enjoyable dinner would improve the quality of life. On the other hand, systematic cooking/eating support for elderly or physically challenged people is significantly important. Thanks to modern technology, the basic environment needed for establishing such a support system at home is becoming rich. Recently, some home appliances are equipped with various sensing devices and a computer. Reflecting this trend, researches on supporting cooking and eating activities have started individually in many corners of the world. This workshop aims to provide an opportunity for such research groups to discover each other, introduce their trials, and discuss how it should be and where they should go. The workshop welcomes contributions in, but not limited to, the following topics: - Application for cooking and eating support - Cooking archiving and recognition - Learning contents creation for cooking - Analysis of cooking video - Recipe image/video retrieval - Analysis and utilization on cooking recipe - Menu planning, dietary management, and food logging - Artificial agent for cooking/eating activity - Sensing of taste/ smell/ texture - Food communication (human-to-human / human-to-computer communication) - Ubiquitous environment and interface in kitchen - Intelligent home appliance - Cooking navigation and supporting interface for the dementia and physically challenged persons - Multimedia learning contents for dietary - Multimedia information service for food safety and security -------------------------------------------------------- Important Dates -------------------------------------------------------- Paper Submission Deadline: July 23, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: Sep. 6, 2010 Camera Ready Deadline: Sep. 23, 2010 Workshop: Dec. 13-15, 2010 (exact date will be announced later) -------------------------------------------------------- Instruction for Submission -------------------------------------------------------- Please follow the paper formatting instructions described on the ISM2010 Web-site: http://ism2010.asia.edu.tw/ A paper should be no longer than 6 pages in the technical paper manuscript in double-column IEEE format including the authors' names and affiliations.
