Preface
The AMDO 2010 conference took place at the Hotel Mon Port,Portd’Andratx
(Mallorca),duringJuly7–9,2010,institutionallysponsoredbyMICINN(Minis-
teriodeCienciaeInnovaci´on,SpanishGovernment),theConselleriad’Economia,
Hisenda i Innovacio´ (Balearic Islands Government), the Consell de Mallorca,
the AERFAI (Spanish Association in Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelli-
gence),theEG(EurographicsAssociation)andtheMathematicsandComputer
Science Department of the UIB. In addition important commercial sponsors
collaborated with practical demonstrations, and the main contributors were:
VICOM Tech, ANDROME Iberica, Robot S.A, DAT S.L, Aquateknica S.L.
The subject of the conference is the ongoing research in articulated motion
on a sequence of images and sophisticated models for deformable objects. The
goals of these areas are the understanding and interpretation of the motion of
complex objects that can be found in sequences of images in the real world.
The main topics considered as priority are: geometric and physical deformable
models, motion analysis, articulated models and animation, modelling and vi-
sualization of deformable models, deformable model applications, motion anal-
ysis applications, single or multiple human motion analysis and synthesis, face
modelling, tracking, recovering and recognition models, virtual and augmented
reality, haptics devices, and biometrics techniques. The conference topics were
groupedintothesetracks:Track 1:ComputerGraphics(HumanModellingand
Animation), Track 2: Human Motion (Analysis, Tracking, 3D Reconstruction
and Recognition),Track 3: Multimodal User Interaction(VR and AR, Speech,
Biometrics)andTrack 4:Affective Interfaces(recognitionandinterpretationof
emotions, ECAs - Embodied ConversationalAgents in HCI).
The AMDO 2010 conference was the natural evolution of previous editions
and has been consolidedas an Europeanreference for symposiums in the topics
mentioned above. The new goal of this conference was to promote interaction
and collaboration among researchers working directly in the areas covered by
the main tracks. New perceptual user interfaces and the emerging technologies
increase the relation between areas involved with human–computer interaction.
ThenewperspectiveoftheAMDO2010conferencewasthestrengtheningofthe
relationship between the areas that share as key point the study of the human

Papersfor this conference was very satisfactory.From 45 full papers submitted,
29wereacceptedfororalpresentation.Thereviewprocesswascarriedoutbythe
Program Committee, each paper being assessed by at least two reviewers. The
conferenceincludedseveralsessionsoforallypresentedpapersandtwotutorials.
Also, the conference benefited from the collaboration of the invited speakers
treating various aspects of the main topics.
