Workshop: Multi-modal Affective and Social Behavior Analysis and Synthesis in Extended Reality (MASSXR)
Principal Organiser: Zerrin Yumak
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/massxrworkshop2023
The objective of this workshop on Multi-modal Affective and Social Behavior Analysis and Synthesis in Extended Reality is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the field of social and affective computing with the ones on 3D computer vision and computer graphics/animation and discuss the current state and future directions, opportunities, and challenges. The workshop aims to establish a new platform for the development of immersive embodied intelligence at the intersection of Artificial intelligence (AI) and Extended Reality (XR). We expect that the workshop will provide an opportunity for researchers to develop new techniques and will lead to new collaboration among the participants.

Workshop: First Workshop on VR for Exergaming (VR4Exergame)
Principal Organiser: Bhawna Shiwani
Website: https://altecresearch.com/vr4exergame/
VR exergames have potential to enable a broad spectrum of users to participate in fitness and rehabilitation activities in immersive social environments. Yet, consumer grade VR systems show only limited ability to realize the adoption of VR exergaming at such scale. Key challenges to enable VR as an engaging, interactive and social alternative to existing practices include – therapeutic benefits to fitness and rehabilitation activities; human factors including the ability to simulate real-world scenarios, long term usage comfort among others; and technical capabilities such as simplified system setup, low multi-user latency, and realistic whole-body immersion. This full-day workshop will bring researchers and industry practitioners together to discuss these new emerging research challenges and technologies. It will consist of keynote speakers, juried paper presentations, and a panel discussion. We invite authors to submit 6-page (plus 1-page for references) research or position papers.

Workshop: Data4XR: Datasets for Developing Intelligent XR Applications
Principal Organiser: Yuyang Wang
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/ieee-vr-data4xr
With easy access to standard datasets, they can develop state-of-the-art AI algorithms to achieve excellent prediction performance. However, when XR researchers decide to import these algorithms for developing intelligent immersive interactive applications, the lack of publicly available datasets arises as a challenge despite advanced AI algorithms being developed.
Many works related to datasets have been published, e.g., MINIST, ImageNet, CIFAR-10, etc. To unleash the full power of XR, the community also needs standard datasets for developing data-driven models with machine/deep learning. The 2nd workshop on Datasets for Developing Intelligent XR Applications (Data4XR), hosted by the IEEE VR 2023, proposes a meaningful platform for domain researchers to find valuable resources and develop collaborations across labs. It aims to promote XR research by involving artificial intelligence.

Workshop: Mixing Realities: Cross-reality Visualization| Interaction| and Collaboration
Principal Organiser: Hai-Ning Liang
Website: https://ieeevr.org/2023/assets/contribute/workshops/MixingRealitiesIEEEVR2023-LingyunYu.pdf
Cross-reality systems offer different levels of virtuality/physicality to users and enable them to move back and forth between the reality-virtuality continuums in a seamless way. Immersive AR/VR HMDs have become the main tools that enable cross-reality interaction.
Immersive analytics has become a significant research field with applications in natural sciences in contexts that require users's understanding, exploration, and communication about high-dimensional data. Cross-reality provides users with the possibility of switching visual representations between systems using different degrees of virtuality and allows users to interact with data across multiple technologies.
The goal of the workshop is to provide an opportunity for researchers from VR/MR/AR, HCI and Visualization fields to submit their original ideas, work-in-progress contribution, and position papers on the design of interactive systems for effective cross-reality visualization, interaction, and collaboration.

Workshop: First Workshop on Security and Privacy for Immersive Virtual Worlds (Secure Immersive Worlds)
Principal Organiser: Sean Banerjee
As critical applications in healthcare, education, finance, teleoperation, and retail emerge in the future immersive worlds, ensuring security and privacy of users from internal and external attacks becomes vital. A significant quantity of sensitive data is likely to be generated by the widespread adoption of VR/XR/MR/AR technologies in "serious" immersive worlds. Traditional approaches for security and privacy fail to capture the subtleties of *R hardware/software systems and the impact of human behavior. The Secure Immersive Worlds workshop aims to cover these open research and technological challenges and garner ideas in ensuring continued security and privacy of users in serious immersive worlds. The full-day workshop will bring researchers and industry practitioners together to discuss these new emerging research challenges and technologies. The workshop will consist of keynote speakers, juried paper presentations, and a panel discussion.
Workshop: Enhancing User Comfort| Health| and Safety in VR and AR
Principal Organiser: Arash Mahnan
Website: https://ieeevr.org/2023/assets/contribute/workshops/EUCHSARVR-CFP-ArashMahnan.pdf
Over the last few years, we have seen an increase in consumer AR and VR devices. Consequently, there is a plethora of new content being created for consumption such as games, social/meeting applications, therapeutic applications, and more. However, widespread acceptance of AR and VR is dependent on user comfort, health, and safety. So, these issues are becoming increasingly important aspects of AR and VR use to research and discuss.
This workshop will provide a venue to present, discuss, and brainstorm issues around user comfort, health and safety. The topics to be considered include, but are not limited to, visually induced motion sickness, perceptual and cognitive distraction, comfort, long-term use and other psychological and physical issues relevant to AR and VR usage. We are interested in all factors that may impact the adoption and retention of use of AR and VR in either the general public or in specific user groups such as medical professionals, industrial or knowledge workers.

Workshop: Workshop on Immersive Sickness Prevention (WISP)
Principal Organiser: Isayas Berhe Adhanom
Website: https://sites.google.com/umn.edu/wisp
The workshop is intended to foster discussion between researchers, developers, and practitioners interested in addressing cybersickness, one of the most significant usability issues in VR. Although immersive technologies have been advancing rapidly, their rate of public adoption has been slowed by the fact that many users experience physical discomfort during or after the use of VR devices, with symptomatic characteristics similar to motion sickness. The workshop will include research papers that report study results, novel interaction techniques, or technological interventions aimed towards understanding and mitigating cybersickness, as well as position papers describing early-stage concepts, preliminary results, or case studies from industry. We hope that the results of the workshop and the discussions will lead to improved design practices, new technological approaches, and a better understanding of the causes of immersive sickness.

Connecting specialists from various digital humanities research areas (such as animation, games and media studies), with experts from both vision-oriented computer science areas (such as computer graphics or information visualization), and experts from technically-oriented computer science areas (such as data integration, internet-of-things or smart automation), the ANIVAE workshops aims to create an open and exciting environment. By encouraging synergies of interdisciplinary approaches, the workshop maps animation within the AVR context from different angles and creates new knowledge in this research field.

Workshop: Open Access Tools and libraries for virtual reality (OAT)
Principal Organiser: Matias Volonte
Website: https://openvrlab.github.io/
Virtual reality researchers and developers need tools to develop state of the art technologies that will help advance knowledge. The goal of this workshop is promoting open-Source tools which can be modified or redistributed. Open access tools are critical to eliminate redundancies and increase world research collaboration in VR. At a time that academic research needs to move as fast as the industry, collaboration and shared tools are the best way to do it.
