LTA @ ACM MM 2016

Workshop on Lifelogging Tools and Applications - a workshop at ACM MM 2016

Given the increasing quantities of personal data being gathered by individuals, the concept of a digital library of rich multimedia and sensory content for every individual is becoming a reality and fast becoming a mainstream topic for multimedia research. This is referred to as lifelogging and there are significant challenges to be addressed, concerning the gathering, enriching, searching and visualising of such data. The LTA 2016 workshop at ACM MM 2016 aims to bring together interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners to discuss approaches to lifelog data analytics and the applications of same, and to debate the opportunities and challenges for researchers in this new and challenging area. The disciplines involved include multimedia analytics, wearable and ubiquitous computing, HCI, information retrieval, cognitive science and healthcare and wellness.

We solicit papers of 4 to 10 pages and position papers of up to 2 pages. All submissions must be original work not under review at any other workshop, conference, or journal. We especially encourage the submission of early-stage or novel ideas in the domain of the workshop.
