Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a paradigm emerging from Artificial Intelligence (AI), where computers are used as pro tools assisting people with their day-to-day activities, increasing human experiences. Affect and social behaviour play an important role in the development of Ambient Intelligent Environments. Consideration of aspects like emotions, mood, personality traits, and attitudes in human-computer, human-robot, and human-environment interaction, especially insofar, as they provide better or more "natural" support for humans. These environments should be aware of the people’s needs, customizing requirements and forecasting behaviours. AmI environments may be highly diverse, such as homes, offices, meeting rooms, schools, hospitals, control centres, transport facilities, tourist attractions, stores, sport installations, or music devices, among others. In the thematic track on AmIA Environments we intend to bring together researchers from the different addressed fields, discussing issues under the Artificial Intelligence topics included in the context of Ambient Intelligence and Affective Environments.
