iWOAR is an international workshop with a conference-like format, hosted by the Pervasive Systems Research Group at the University of Twente. This year's workshop is being held in Enschede, Netherlands, on the University of Twente campus. The workshop focuses on recognizing human and animal activities using artificial intelligence, with wearable and device-free sensors, as well as related technologies.
All scientific submissions undergo a single-blind peer-review process to ensure that high-quality content is published. Each submission typically receives 2-3 reviews. All submissions are discussed among the program committee members. The designated program committee chairs make the final decision on acceptance or rejection. We invite submissions that target (but are not limited to) the following topics and applications:
• Human Activity /Behavior/Wellbeing Recognition
• Animal Activity and Wellbeing/Welfare Recognition
• (w)Earable Sensing, Computing and Artificial Intelligence
• Device-free Sensing
• Affective Computing
• Real-time Activity Recognition
• Human-Computer Interaction
• Human-Centered Intelligence
• Wireless Sensor Networks/IoT
• Context Awareness
• Sensing in Virtual, Mixed, and Augmented Reality
• Assistive Technologies
• Ambient Assisted Living
• Pervasive & Ubiquitous Computing
• Applications for (Mental) Health, Therapy and Rehabilitation
• Occupational Safety, Healthcare and Wellness
• Assisted Production
• Privacy and Ethical Considerations in Human/Animal Sensing
All submissions should follow the Springer LNCS format. Accepted submissions will be published in the iWOAR 2025 Proceedings online in the SpringerLink digital library.
