Call for Papers

The aviation domain can benefit from the growth and maturation of eye-tracking technology to improve training programs, on-board and on-ground human-computer interaction, and flight data analysis. The 1st International Workshop on Eye-Tracking in Aviation (ETAVI) aims to bring together researchers, practitioners and industrial players who have common interests in applying eye-tracking research in the aviation domain including, but not limited to, the cockpit and air traffic control / management.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Eye Tracking for training:
  • Tools for improving monitoring skills
  • Tools for instructors/educators
  • Standardized eye movement patterns
• Eye Tracking for interaction:
  • Gaze as an input modality in the cockpit and for traffic control
  • Gaze-based interaction to support existing interactions
  • Gaze-based interactions to introduce novel interactions
• Eye Tracking for analysis:
  • Eye movements in cockpit and air traffic control operations
  • Evaluation and improvement of interfaces
  • Expertise estimation and flight performance analysis
  • Tools for comparison of pilots’ and controllers’ scanpaths
  • Analyzing big eye tracking data from training sessions
  • Cognitive pilots/controllers models based on gaze behavior
• Eye Tracking challenges and extensions:
  • On-board gaze recording challenges
  • Extending physiological recordings with EEG, ECG, EDA, fNIRS
  • Augmented/virtual/mixed reality in simulation or training
  • Ethical aspect

Submission process:

Authors are invited to submit work in progress, preliminary results, or position papers of 4-6 pages in length (plus 2 pages references). Please upload a 150-maximum word abstract reflecting your expected contribution by the due date. Your abstract submission will allow us to prepare for the review process. An abstract is required before the actual paper is submitted. To submit the abstract, login to https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=etavi20 and create an account if you do not already have one. Ensure that you have uploaded your abstract/paper by the appropriate due dates.
Please use ACM article template (https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template) with "acmconf" and "nonacm" template styles (first line of the .tex file: \documentclass[acmconf, nonacm]{acmart}). Add "review" style for the review process.
We use a two-phase review process with a rebuttal phase so that before the final decision, the authors will have the opportunity to respond to the reviews with a rebuttal. Manuscripts will be reviewed by the program committee. Papers may be accepted for oral or for a poster presentation. Online proceedings will be published as open access through the ETH Zurich Research Collection under a Creative Commons license. Each paper will be assigned a DOI. At least one author must register and present accepted work at the workshop.
