ACM IUI 2021: Call for Papers

by Axel Soto

*** ACM IUI 2021: Call for Papers *** * College Station, TX * March 18-21, 2021 * http://iui.acm.org/2021/ * Contact: program2021(a)iui.acm.org ## Upcoming deadlines Abstract: Oct 2, 2020 (compulsory) Paper submission: Oct 9, 2020 ## ACM IUI 2021 ACM IUI 2021 is the 26th annual premier international forum for reporting outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces. ACM IUI is where the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) communities meet, with contributions from related fields such as psychology, behavioral science, cognitive science, computer graphics, design, the arts, and more. Our focus is on improving the interaction between humans and digital technology, by leveraging both HCI approaches and state-of-the art AI techniques from machine learning, natural language processing, data mining, knowledge representation and reasoning. ### Why you should submit to ACM IUI While other conferences focus on either the AI or HCI side of this research, we address the complex interaction between the two. We strongly encourage submissions that simultaneously discuss research from both HCI and AI. We also welcome works that focus more on one side or the other, but still highlight the connections between the two. We value papers that contribute methodology or theory for the evaluation of intelligent user interfaces. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do expect papers to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated contributions. ACM IUI welcomes contribution from all relevant arenas—academia, industry, government, and non-profit organizations—and gives its participants the opportunity to present and see cutting-edge IUI work in a focused and interactive setting. The conference is large enough to be diverse and lively, but small enough to allow for extensive interaction among attendees and easy attendance to the events that the conference offers, ranging from oral paper presentations, poster sessions, workshops, panels and a doctoral consortium for graduate students. ### COVID-19 statement We are monitoring the situation regarding the global pandemic and associated travel restrictions. If needed, we will offer a virtual presentation option if the conference cannot take place due to the global pandemic, or if registered authors from specific parts of the world cannot attend the conference. ## Papers We accept two forms of contributions: full and short papers. They should both make novel contributions to IUI, however full papers should make more substantial and significant contributions, while short papers can contain more focused contributions. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices. A selected set of accepted top quality full papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for publication in an ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS, http://tiis.acm.org) special issue titled "Highlights of IUI 2021". ## Topics IUI topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Application areas * Internet of Things (IoT) * Education and learning-related technologies * Health and intelligent health technologies * Assistive technologies * Social media and other Web technologies * Mobile applications * Artificial personal assistants * Information retrieval, search, and recommendation systems * Interface types * Affective and aesthetic interfaces * Collaborative interfaces * Speech-based interfaces * AR/VR interfaces * Intelligent wearable and mobile interfaces * Ubiquitous smart environments * Modalities * Agent based interfaces (e.g., embodied agents, virtual assistants) * Multi-modal interfaces (speech, gestures, eye gaze, face, physiological information etc.) * Conversational interfaces * Tangible interfaces * Intelligent visualization * Methods and approaches * Methods for explanations (e.g., transparency, control, and trust) * Persuasive technologies in IUI * Privacy and security of IUI * Planning and plan recognition for IUI * Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation * User Modelling for Intelligent Interfaces * User-Adaptive interaction and personalization * Crowd computing and human computation * Human-in-the loop machine learning * Evaluations of intelligent user interfaces * User experiments * User studies * Reproducibility (including benchmarks, datasets, and challenges) * Meta-analyses * Mixed-methods evaluations ## Dates * Oct 2, 2020: Abstract deadline (compulsory) * Oct 9, 2020: Papers deadline * Dec 14, 2020: Notification * Feb 8, 2021: Camera ready due * Mar 18, 2021: Conference starts ## Submission Guidelines Check the submission guidelines on the conference page: https://iui.acm.org/2021/call_for_papers.html. ## Program Chairs * John O’Donovan, University of California, Santa Barbara * Bart Knijnenburg, Clemson University * Paul Teale, Texas A&M * Jeeeun Kim, Texas A&M * Aaron Adler, Raytheon BBN Technologies * Manoj Prasad, Microsoft * Contact: program2021(a)iui.acm.org

International EMPATHY workshop: Empowering People in Dealing with Internet of Things Ecosystems – Final Call for Contributions

by Andrea Mattioli

ACM AVI 2020 Workshop - Submission deadline extended to July 15th ** COVID-19 Information ** The current plan is to hold the workshop with participation in person. EMPATHY: Empowering People in Dealing with Internet of Things Ecosystems www.empathy-project.eu/workshop/ September 29th, 2020 Island of Ischia, Italy OVERVIEW In the last decade, the spreading of low-cost technologies integrating sensors and actuators has favored the development of the so-called smart objects. This trend has been further fostered by the Internet of Things (IoT), which connects the physical world with Internet via ubiquitous sensors and actuators. The opportunities offered by the IoT are amplified by the use of new approaches that, based on novel interaction paradigms, involve directly non-technical users in configuring the joint behavior of their smart objects, among them and with online services. Existing solutions to define the behavior of such “IoT ecosystems” range from systems that leave the users complete control for establishing the joint behavior of smart objects, to solutions that automatically define smart objects behavior exploiting intelligent techniques. In this continuum, different technologies, frameworks, and approaches present different levels of user control and automation. In this perspective it is also important to consider the emerging role played by social and humanoid robots, which are integrated sets of sensors and actuators with human-like behaviours. DATES July 15th: Paper submission deadline July 20th: Paper acceptance notice July 24th: Camera-ready submission September 29th: Half-day workshop (morning) SUGGESTED TOPICS FOR CONTRIBUTIONS This workshop aims to serve as a venue for discussing ongoing research and sharing ideas for researchers and practitioners working on solutions to personalize the behavior of IoT ecosystems. We aim to encourage participation in order to have stimulating discussion from various perspectives. Topics include, but are not limited, to: - End-User Development (EUD) for IoT; - Interaction Paradigms for IoT; - Usability of IoT Systems; - Interface Design for IoT; - Intelligent Interface for IoT Systems; - Accessibility for IoT Systems; - Usable Privacy and Security in IoT systems - Personalisation and Recommendations for IoT. PARTICIPATION We invite submissions of two types: short papers (3-4 pages) and position papers (1-2 pages). Participants are asked to submit their paper describing their recent or future work in one of the areas indicated in the topics of interest. All submissions must be in the CHI Extended Abstracts format. Papers should be submitted in PDF to easychair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=empathy2020). All papers will be reviewed by the organizers and by the program committee based on relevance and significance in order to provide constuctive comments to the submitters. Reviewing will be single blind (i.e. author names and affiliations should be listed). If accepted, at least one of the authors must register and attend the workshop. ORGANIZERS - Giuseppe Desolda, University of Bari “Aldo Moro” - Vincenzo Deufemia, University of Salerno - Cristina Gena, University of Turin - Maristella Matera, Politecnico di Milano - Fabio Paternò, CNR-ISTI - Barbara Treccani, University of Trento

Mailing list hcitaly

by Fabio Paternò

Cari/e tutti/e Questo messaggio è solo per informarvi che la mailing list hcitaly è stata portata dall' indirizzo hcitaly(a)cnuce.cnr.it all'indirizzo hcitaly(a)isti.cnr.it La lista penso nacque nel 1998 ed allora esisteva il CNUCE, che poi è confluito nell'ISTI. Gli appassionati di storia dell'informatica italiana possono trovare maggiori informazioni a https://www.isti.cnr.it/about.php Pare che il dominio cnuce.cnr.it stia per scomparire da Internet e quindi siamo stati costretti a spostare la lista di indirizzi email (che attualmente sono 458) su un altro server, le modalità di utilizzo dovrebbero essere sostanzialmente invariate per gli utenti. Quindi d'ora in poi mandate email all'indirizzo hcitaly(a)isti.cnr.it ! Fabio
