Special Sessions

Special sessions are very small and specialized events to be held during the conference as a set of oral and poster presentations that are highly specialized in some particular theme or consisting of the works of some particular international project. The goal of special sessions (minimum 4 papers; maximum 9) is to provide a focused discussion on innovative topics. All accepted papers will be published in a special section of the conference proceedings book, under an ISBN reference, and on digital support. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library. SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef and every paper is given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier). The proceedings are submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), DBLP, EI (Elsevier Engineering Village Index), Scopus, Semantic Scholar and Google Scholar.

Special Session on Adaptive Stochastic Algorithms and their Applications at Human-Machine Interfaces - ASAAHMI 2014

Co-chairs

	Roman Sergienko Gini GmbH Germany e-mail

	Evgenii Sopov Siberian State University of Science and Technology Russian Federation e-mail

Scope

The subject of the Special Session on Adaptive Stochastic Algorithms and their Applications at Human-Machine Interfaces covers an interdisciplinary area of the research and development of adaptive stochastic algorithms for optimization and data analysis and their applications for human-machine interfaces development (i.e. spoken dialogue systems). The special session considers such adaptive stochastic algorithms as genetic optimization algorithms, genetic programming, evolutionary strategies, and particle swarm optimization and their applications for such human-machine interfaces problems as automatic emotion recognition, automatic call routing, human-machine conversation topic identification, human-machine interaction quality modeling etc. The goal of the special session is to represent actual investigations in the area of adaptive stochastic algorithms applications for human-machine interfaces development and international cooperation in this area.
