These interactions are commonly enabled through sensors to implicitly automate manual processes, such as turning on lights or walking up stairs. However, cities were not necessarily built from the ground up to be smart, rather they are gradually becoming smarter over time as technology becomes more extensible and embedded within them. These digital technologies create information layers that exist over the physical space, resulting in the space being filled with dynamically changing information, thus augmenting the space. Augmented reality (AR) is one such technology that has recently seen a lot of development in this area and is only now starting to become more viable as hardware and computer vision algorithms have caught up. Films such as Minority Report (2002), Ghost in the Shell (2016), and Blade Runner (2017) have predicted AR’s future emergence in public spaces and cities. These films featured AR advertising and information holograms in public spaces, enabled by smart contact lenses and holograms. Currently however, AR has been introduced to public spaces in a number of interesting ways. For instance, Pokemon GO became a global phenomenon which resulted in people physically playing the game in urban spaces and caused ripple effects on the physical spaces people were playing in. Recent work has also shown that AR can have more engaging applications, in areas such as community engagement, personalised digital signage, in-situ visualisations, cultural heritage, and remote collaboration. On a consumer level, AR is most common on smartphones, particularly after the release of ARKit and ARCore - improving the functionality. AR smart glasses are also becoming more accessible and bring with them the possibility of more natural integration of virtual content into our daily lives. For instance, the Microsoft Hololens contains an array of sensor technologies giving it a sense of depth which allows it to place objects naturally in physical space. It has been successfully applied by planners to visualise underlying parts of the city in-situ. While AR is becoming more advanced, accessible, and has demonstrated potential, more knowledge is needed around the key benefits it will bring to cities and how it will change our interactions with the urban environment. Additionally, the use of such technologies raises the question of how the virtual and physical spaces can co-exist - creating an augmented space. Therefore, this focus section builds on from our initial workshops with the goal of bringing together researchers to explore the applications of AR and other immersive technologies, such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR), within the context of enhancing architecture, public spaces and cities. ----------------------------------------------------------- *Topics of Interest* ----------------------------------------------------------- We welcome research focused on engaging experiences using augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) within the context of enhancing architecture, public spaces and cities. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: Augmenting humans in future cities Digital heritage and preservation Speculative designs, design fictions, and art projects Perspectives from literature How immersive technologies and applications can be utilised to enhance existing urban infrastructure/technologies (public displays, media facades, buildings, town squares, etc) Remote collaboration The effect of immersive technologies on culture and behaviour in cities Smart cities with digital twin technologies =========================================== /*Submission guidelines and procedure*/ ---------------------------------------------------------- All submissions (abstracts and later final manuscripts) must be original and may not be under review by another publication. The manuscripts should be submitted either in .doc or in .rtf format. All papers will be blindly peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers.

ACM IUI 2021: Call for papers [corrected dates]

by Axel Soto

*** ACM IUI 2021: Call for Papers *** * College Station, TX * April 13-17, 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 * Apr 13, 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
