Aims and Scope

Numerous breakthroughs in computer science have come out of the assimilation of results from other disciplines. Recently, there has been an increasing appreciation of the gains that can be made through the application of findings from the field of experimental psychology. Similarly, the latter may benefit from computational and algorithmic advances in computer science. The purpose of ACM Transactions on Applied Perception is to further the development of inter-disciplinary research that crosses the boundaries between perception and computer science disciplines such as graphics, vision, acoustics and haptics. This journal aims to broaden the synergy between computer science and psychology/perception by publishing top quality papers that help to unify research in these fields. The scope of this journal includes applications and algorithms in any area of research that incorporates elements of perception and computer science. Topics include, but are not limited to:

• Visual: perceptually based techniques in computer graphics, scientific/data/information visualization, digital imaging and computer vision.
• Auditory: auditory display and interfaces, perceptual auditory coding, spatialized sound, speech synthesis and recognition
• Haptics: haptic rendering, haptic input and perception
• Sensorimotor: vestibular interfaces, eye/head tracking input, gesture input, body movement input
• Multimodal rendering and multimodal interaction
• Sensory integration

Submission Procedure

To publish papers in a timely fashion we ask reviewers to complete their review within four weeks. Transactions on Applied Perception is printed in color at no expense to the author. For more details on preparing a submission, please see the Information for Authors.
