Call for Papers: Eye Tracking South Africa 2013
avatar

Tanya Beelders posted the following call for papers:

Eye Tracking South Africa, an international conference aimed 
specifically at eye tracking research will be launched this year 
in Cape Town, South Africa. The conference will take place 
from 29-31 August 2013. Interact 2013 will follow directly after 
ETSA and will also be held in Cape Town. This gives delegates the 
opportunity to attend two international conferences in a single trip.

Call for papers

Authors are invited to submit papers that relate to the theme 
“Eyes on the Mountain” although this should not be seen as a 
restrictive requirement. Conference tracks will include but 
not limited to the following topics:

    Usability
    Visualisation
    Gaze interaction
    Reading research
    Eye Control for people with disabilities
    Visual attention
    Systems, tools and methods
    Eye movements
    Technical aspects of eye-tracking e.g. pupil detection, 
        calibration, mapping, event detection, data quality, etc.

Deadline for full papers: 30 April 2013.

Deadline for short papers and posters (abstracts): 15 June 2013

Researchers or industry are also invited to present a symposium or 
workshop at the conference. A two page abstract must be submitted

avatar

Dr. Wegener just posted the call for Symposia for ECVP:

*European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP) 2013: 1st Call for 
Abstracts *

The 36th European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP) will take place 
in Bremen, Germany, from August 25th to August 29th 2013.

Herewith we call for your contributions to ECVP 2013. We invite you to 
submit an abstract about your recent work on visual perception and 
related topics to present it on the conference - either as a talk or 
poster.
All abstracts will be reviewed. Notification of acceptance will be sent 
by June.
*The deadline for abstract submission is March 24, 2013. *

This year's ECVP has a special focus on Computational Neuroscience.
We encourage submissions on work at the node between Visual Perception 
and Computational Neuroscience, regarding techniques, methods, concepts, 
and models.

Please note that for submitting an abstract, you have to register for 
the main conference first (http://www.ecvp.uni-bremen.de/node/15).
After registering, you will receive a preliminary confirmation, and a 
link to the abstract submission system.
*Registration opens on January 21, 2013 (next Monday).*

Please note that there are two modifications this year regarding 
abstract submission:

 1.   If you apply for an oral presentation (talk) you can optionally
    include a max one-page PDF or RTF extended summary with additional
    information about your contribution.
 2. You are required to choose at least one topic and one method
    keyword, in order to assign all abstracts to appropriate reviewers
    and program sessions. The list of available keywords can be found on
    the website (abstract guidelines).


On Sunday, August 25th, 2013 we offer two additional events you might 
want to attend:

 1. Bernstein-Tutorials: Will take place before the main conference and
    shall give the opportunity for introducing students, postdocs but
    also experienced scientists to various important topics and
    state-of-the-art methods and techniques in Psychophysics, Data
    analysis and Computational Neurosciences.
 2. Satellite Symposium at HWK: The satellite symposium "The Art of
    Perception - The Perception of Art" will also be held on the opening
    day of the ECVP 2013.


Registration for satellite events (Bernstein tutorials, Art symposium 
etc.) is subject to space limitations and will be done on a first-come, 
first-served basis.
You have to register for satellite events during the normal registration 
process.

You can find all important dates, fees, guidelines and additional 
information at *http://www.ecvp.uni-bremen.de/*
