[game_edu] CFP: 1st Workshop on Research in Cognitive-based Approaches to Intelligent Interactive Digital Entertainment

[Rogelio E. Cardona-Rivera]

(Apologies for cross-posting!)

We are delighted to announce:
The 1st (AIIDE-14) Workshop on Research in Cognitive-based Approaches to
Intelligent Interactive Digital Entertainment! (RCAIIDE).

For full details of this workshop, please go to http://dgrc.ncsu.edu/rcaiide

====================
  About the Workshop
====================
Adhering to the idea that the fundamental criterion for the design of
interactive experiences rests in the mind of the human consumer, this
workshop aims to advance research in cognitive-focused artificial
intelligence in the context of interactive digital entertainment. The
workshop focuses on the study of intelligent interactive entertainment from
the lens of cognition.  It will bring together scholars from diverse
disciplines to discuss how cognition can be used as a framework for
informing the design of artifacts intended to elicit specific cognitive,
affective, and physiological responses.


====================
  Call for Papers
====================
We invite potential authors to submit papers relevant to cognitive-focused
challenges in and relating to the design of interactive digital
experiences. A non-exhaustive list of illustrative workshop topics is
provided below, as a guide to potential authors.


Illustrative Workshop Topics
----------------------------
- Adaptive game environments that consider cognitive and affective states
- Cognitive and affective theories, models, and analyses of player behavior
- Cognitive and affective focused design of non-player characters and
stories
- Cognitive and affective load in the presence of complex interactive
environments
- Cognitive and affective player analytics
- Cognitively mediated interactive experiences
- Case studies of player behavior
- Cognitive foundations of play, interactivity, and narrative in video games
- Epistemic challenges in studying cognition in interactive game contexts
- Techniques for analyzing cognitive and affective states in interactive
game contexts


Submission and Workshop Format
----------------------------
We will accept two types of papers:

- Full Papers (up to 6 pages, plus 1 page of references)
Appropriate for describing completed or ongoing
research, including pilot studies, or studies in
 progress.

- Position Papers (up to 3 pages, plus 1 page of references)
Appropriate for discussing an interesting new idea,
 identifying important neglected areas or topics,
or an opinion piece.

The best reviewed submissions will be accepted, and allotted a presentation
time during the 1-day workshop. Papers must be presented in order to be
included in the proceedings. All accepted papers will be published in a
Technical Report by AAAI Press and will be archived in the AAAI digital
library. All submissions must be anonymized for double blind review. This
