IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence 2009

2009 IEEE Workshop on Computational Intelligence in Virtual Environments

IEEE CIVE 2009 intends to bring a computational intelligence perspective to the theory and practice of virtual environments, and human-computer interfaces and their interactive applications in telerobotics, telemedicine, remote control, engineering design, environment sensing and monitoring, medicine, training, education, arts, and computer games.

Papers are solicited on all aspects of computational intelligence methodology and technology for virtual environment applications, These applications include, but are not limited to, soft-computing techniques for real-time modeling of object properties and their behaviour in multimodal (visual, haptic, audio, etc) interactive virtual environments and their applications, augmented and virtualized reality, collaborative distributed virtual environments, human-computer interfaces, Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) in tele-operations, human-machine collaboration in telerobotics and exoskeletons, model-based telecommunications and telemanipulation, medicine, training, education, arts, and computer games, simulation and modeling of critical infrastructure interdependencies for emergency preparedness applications.
