This is funding to support participation by about 6 graduate students from U.S. institutions, along with about 5 senior members of the ICMI community who will serve as mentors, in a Doctoral Consortium (workshop) to be held in conjunction with and immediately preceding the 18th International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2016), which will take place November 12-16, 2016, in Tokyo, Japan, and which is organized by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The ICMI conference series is the premier international forum for multidisciplinary research on multimodal human-human and human-computer interaction, interfaces, and system development. The conference focuses on theoretical and empirical foundations, component technologies, and combined multimodal processing techniques that define the field of multimodal interaction analysis, interface design, and system development. Topics of special interest to the conference this year include: multimodal interaction processing; interactive systems and applications; modeling human communication patterns; data, evaluation and standards for multimodal interactive systems; and urban interactions. ICMI 2016 will feature a single-track main conference which includes: keynote speakers, technical full and short papers (including oral and poster presentations), special sessions, demonstrations, exhibits and doctoral spotlight papers. The ICMI 2016 proceedings will be published by ACM Press and included in the ACM Digital Library. As a further incentive for high-quality student participation ICMI 2016 will be awarding outstanding paper awards, with a special category for student papers. More information about the conference may be found online at http://icmi.acm.org/2016/. The goal of the ICMI Doctoral Consortium is to provide PhD students with an opportunity to present their work to a group of mentors and peers from a diverse set of academic and industrial institutions, to receive feedback on their doctoral research plan and progress, and to build a cohort of young researchers interested in designing multimodal interfaces. Student participants will present their ongoing thesis research as a short talk at the Consortium and also as a poster at the conference Doctoral Spotlight Session. Following the fruitful experience of last year's ICMI conference and doctoral consortium, and with the goal of providing more opportunities for interaction between the students and senior members of the field, the program will once again include a lunch on the day of the workshop for students and mentors, a career panel that will provide the students and mentors the opportunity to ask and answer questions and discuss challenges and opportunities in the field, and a dinner that will provide the students with the opportunity to hold informal conversations among themselves as well as with the organizers and mentors. The Doctoral Consortium will give student participants exposure to their new research community, both by presenting their own work and by observing and interacting with established professionals in the field. It will encourage students at this critical time in their careers to begin building a social support network of peers and mentors. The organizers will take steps proactively to achieve a diversity of research topics, disciplinary backgrounds, methodological approaches, and home institutions among the students. To further increase diversity, the organizers have committed that no more than one student will be invited from any given U.S. institution of higher learning.

这是为了支持来自美国机构的大约6名研究生的资金，以及ICMI社区的大约5名高级成员，他们将担任导师，并在博士财团（车间）中与第18国际联合会和紧接之前举行。将于2016年11月12日至16日在日本东京举行的多模式互动会议（ICMI 2016），该会议由日本东京，由计算机协会（ACM）组织。 ICMI会议系列是关于多模式人类和人类计算机互动，界面和系统开发的多学科研究的首要国际论坛。会议的重点是理论和经验基础，组件技术以及组合的多模式处理技术，这些技术定义了多模式交互分析，界面设计和系统开发领域。今年会议特别感兴趣的主题包括：多模式互动处理；交互式系统和应用；建模人类的交流模式；多模式交互系统的数据，评估和标准；和城市互动。 ICMI 2016将举办一次单轨主会议，其中包括：主题演讲者，技术完整和短篇论文（包括口头和海报演示），特别会议，示范，展览和博士聚光灯论文。 ICMI 2016会议记录将由ACM Press发布，并包括在ACM数字图书馆中。为了进一步激励高质量的学生参与ICMI 2016，将颁发出杰出的纸质奖项，并提供针对学生论文的特殊类别。有关会议的更多信息，请参见http://icmi.acm.org/2016/。 ICMI博士联盟的目标是为博士学生提供机会，向来自各种学术和工业机构的一群导师和同伴展示其工作，以收到有关其博士研究计划和进步的反馈，并建立构建的反馈一群有兴趣设计多模式界面的年轻研究人员。学生参与者将在财团中介绍他们正在进行的论文研究，并在会议博士聚焦会议上作为海报。遵循去年ICMI会议和博士联盟的富有成果的经历，并为学生与该领域的高级成员之间的互动机会提供了更多的机会，该计划将在学生和学生的当天再次包括午餐导师，一个职业小组，将为学生和导师提供机会提出问题并讨论该领域的挑战和机会，以及一顿晚餐，将为学生提供机会，与他们进行非正式的对话以及与组织者和导师。 博士联盟将通过介绍自己的工作以及观察和与该领域的既定专业人员进行观察和互动，使学生参与者接触他们的新研究社区。它将鼓励学生在职业生涯中的这个关键时刻开始建立同行和导师的社会支持网络。组织者将积极采取步骤，以实现学生中各种各样的研究主题，纪律背景，方法论方法和家庭机构。为了进一步提高多样性，组织者承认，任何给定的美国高等教育机构都将邀请不超过一名学生。
