CALL FOR PAPERS The 2nd International Workshop on EXplainable, TRansparent Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (EXTRAAMAS 2020) In conjunction with the International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS 2020) Auckland, New Zealand, 9 - 13 May 2020 https://extraamas.ehealth.hevs.ch/index.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description ========== The main aim of this second “International workshop on EXplainable TRansparent Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems” (EXTRAAMAS) is four-folded: -to establish a common ground for the study and development of explainable and understandable autonomous agents, robots and Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), -to investigate the potential of agent-based systems in the development of personalized user-aware explainable AI, -to assess the impact of transparent and explained solutions on the user/agents behaviors, and -to discuss motivating examples and concrete applications in which the lack of explainability leads to problems, which would be resolved by explainability. Contributions are encouraged in both theoretical and practical applications for transparent and explainable intelligence in agents and MAS. Papers presenting theoretical contributions, designs, prototypes, tools, subjective user tests, assessment, new or improved techniques, and general survey papers tracking current evolutions and future directions are welcome. ---------------------------------------------- Topics ====== _Explainable Agents and Robots: -Explainable agent architectures -Personalized XAI -Explainable & Expressive robots -Explainable human-robot collaboration -Reinforcement Learning Agents -Multi-modal explanations _XAI & Ethics: -Social XAI -AI, ethics, and explainability -XAI vs AI _XAI & MAS: -Multi-actors interaction in XAI -XAI for agent/robots teams -Simulations for XAI _Interdisciplinary Aspects: -Cognitive and social sciences perspectives on explanations -HCI for XAI -Legal aspects of explainable agents -Explanation visualization _XAI Machine learning and Knowledge Representation: -Bridging symbolic and subsymbolic XAI -Knowledge generation from interpretations -Explanation visualization -Explainable knowledge generation ---------------------------------------------- Important Dates ============== - Deadline for Submissions: 29 February 2020 (extended) - Notification of acceptance: 10 March 2020 - Camera-ready: 1 April 2020 - Workshop: 9 - 13 May 2020 ---------------------------------------------- Submission ========= Submissions will be (single-blindly) reviewed by at least three members of the programme committee, who are experts in the field. The acceptance of the submitted papers will depend on their quality, relevance, and originality. To conduct this process, the chairs will rely on easychair to make the reviewing procedure traceable, transparent and accessible. In the case of accepted papers characterized by relevant demands (e.g., clarifications, changes, corrections) set by the reviewers, the final acceptance will be subject to their accomplishment. Accepted papers will be published in the Springer post-proceedings Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI). Participants are therefore invited to submit papers up to 16 pages in length (4 pages + 1 page reference for demo papers), addressing the topics of the workshop. Papers must be edited using the LNCS format (applying the LNCS post-proceedings template) and have to be submitted electronically as PDF files via the EasyChair submission page. Papers can either be: -Full papers (max. 16 pages LNCS style). -Demo papers (max. 4 pages LNCS style + 1 page references). Demo papers should describe implementations of explainable agents and multi-agent systems or explainable AI methods and algorithms that are applicable to explainable agents. The work presented in the demo paper should be practically applicable. The source code of the implementation should be shared, for example by providing a web link. The maximal length of a demo paper is 4 pages plus 1 page for references. Demos will be presented in a similar manner as ordinary papers; however, a demo presentation should be interactive and ideally show the running implementation "live". ---------------------------------------------- Post-proceedings ================ Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made. ---------------------------------------------- Workshop Chairs =============== - Dr. Davide Calvaresi, HES-SO, Switzerland - Dr. Amro Najjar, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg - Prof. Kary Främling, Umea University Sweden and Aalto University, Finland - Prof. Michael Winikoff, Victoria University Wellington ---------------------------------------------- Advisory Board ============== - Prof. Virginia Dignum, Umea University, Sweden - Prof. Tim Miller, School of Computing and Information Systems at The University of Melbourne - Prof. Michael Ignaz Schumacher, HES-SO, Switzerland - Prof. Leon Van der Torre, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg ---------------------------------------------- Assistant Chairs ================ - Giovanni Ciatto, Università di Bologna - Timotheus Kampik, Umeå University, Signavio GmbH Publicity Chairs ================ - Yazan Mualla, Univ. de Technologie de Belfort-Montbeliard, France - Dr. Avleen Malhi, Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology ---------------------------------------------- Program Committee ================= To be announced.

CfP: Haskell Symposium 2020
by Tom Schrijvers 04 Feb '20

04 Feb '20

================================================================================ ACM SIGPLAN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS Haskell Symposium 2020 New Jersey, United States 27--28 August, 2020 http://www.haskell.org/haskell-symposium/2020/ ================================================================================ The ACM SIGPLAN Haskell Symposium 2020 will be co-located with the 2020 International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP). Like last year, we will be using a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. See further information below. The Haskell Symposium presents original research on Haskell, discusses practical experience and future development of the language, and promotes other forms of declarative programming. Topics of interest include: * Language design, with a focus on possible extensions and modifications of Haskell as well as critical discussions of the status quo; * Theory, such as formal semantics of the present language or future extensions, type systems, effects, metatheory, and foundations for program analysis and transformation; * Implementations, including program analysis and transformation, static and dynamic compilation for sequential, parallel, and distributed architectures, memory management, as well as foreign function and component interfaces; * Libraries, that demonstrate new ideas or techniques for functional programming in Haskell; * Tools, such as profilers, tracers, debuggers, preprocessors, and testing tools; * Applications, to scientific and symbolic computing, databases, multimedia, telecommunication, the web, and so forth; * Functional Pearls, being elegant and instructive programming examples; * Experience Reports, to document general practice and experience in education, industry, or other contexts; * System Demonstrations, based on running software rather than novel research results. Regular papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and functional pearls need not necessarily report original academic research results. For example, they may instead report reusable programming idioms, elegant ways to approach a problem, or practical experience that will be useful to other users, implementers, or researchers. The key criterion for such a paper is that it makes a contribution from which other Haskellers can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a standard solution to a standard programming problem, or report on experience where you used Haskell in the standard way and achieved the result you were expecting. System demonstrations should summarize the system capabilities that would be demonstrated. The proposals will be judged on whether the ensuing session is likely to be important and interesting to the Haskell community at large, whether on grounds academic or industrial, theoretical or practical, technical, social or artistic. Please contact the program chair with any questions about the relevance of a proposal. Submission Details ================== Early and Regular Track ----------------------- The Haskell Symposium uses a two-track submission process so that some papers can gain early feedback. Strong papers submitted to the early track are accepted outright, and the others will be given their reviews and invited to resubmit to the regular track. Papers accepted via the early and regular tracks are considered of equal value and will not be distinguished in the proceedings. Although all papers may be submitted to the early track, authors of functional pearls and experience reports are particularly encouraged to use this mechanism. The success of these papers depends heavily on the way they are presented, and submitting early will give the program committee a chance to provide feedback and help draw out the key ideas. Formatting ---------- Submitted papers should be in portable document format (PDF), formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Authors should use the `acmart` format, with the `sigplan` sub-format for ACM proceedings. For details, see: http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/#acmart-format It is recommended to use the `review` option when submitting a paper; this option enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews. Functional pearls, experience reports, and demo proposals should be labelled clearly as such. Lightweight Double-blind Reviewing ---------------------------------- Haskell Symposium 2020 will use a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules: 1. Author names and institutions must be omitted, and 2. References to authors’ own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not “We build on our previous work …” but rather “We build on the work of …”). The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be omitted or anonymized). In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. A reviewer will learn the identity of the author(s) of a paper after a review is submitted. Page Limits ----------- The length of submissions should not exceed the following limits: Regular paper: 12 pages Functional pearl: 12 pages Experience report: 6 pages Demo proposal: 2 pages There is no requirement that all pages are used. For example, a functional pearl may be much shorter than 12 pages. In all cases, the list of references is not counted against these page limits. Deadlines --------- Early track: Submission deadline: 20 March 2020 (Fri) Notification: 24 April 2020 (Fri) Regular track and demos: Submission deadline: 15 May 2020 (Fri) Notification: 26 June 2020 (Fri) Deadlines are valid anywhere on Earth. Submission ---------- Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy (http://sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/) and authors should be aware of ACM's policies on plagiarism (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism) Program Committee members are allowed to submit papers, but their papers will be held to a higher standard. The paper submission deadline and length limitations are firm. There will be no extensions, and papers violating the length limitations will be summarily rejected. Papers should be submitted through HotCRP at: https://haskell20.hotcrp.com/ Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. Supplementary material: Authors have the option to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at it. This supplementary material should not be submitted as part of the main document; instead, it should be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Supplementary material should be uploaded at submission time, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. Authors are free to upload both anonymized and non-anonymized supplementary material. Anonymized supplementary material will be visible to reviewers immediately; non-anonymized supplementary material will be revealed to reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and learned the identity of the author(s). Resubmitted Papers: Authors who submit a revised version of a paper that has previously been rejected by another conference have the option to attach an annotated copy of the reviews of their previous submission(s), explaining how they have addressed these previous reviews in the present submission. If a reviewer identifies him/herself as a reviewer of this previous submission and wishes to see how his/her comments have been addressed, the principal editor will communicate to this reviewer the annotated copy of his/her previous review. Otherwise, no reviewer will read the annotated copies of the previous reviews. Travel Support ============== Student attendees with accepted papers can apply for a SIGPLAN PAC grant to help cover travel expenses. PAC also offers other support, such as for child-care expenses during the meeting or for travel costs for companions of SIGPLAN members with physical disabilities, as well as for travel from locations outside of North America and Europe. For details on the PAC program, see its web page (http://pac.sigplan.org) Proceedings =========== Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Their authors will be required to choose one of the following options: - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license (and, optionally, licenses the work with a Creative Commons license); - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permssion-to-publish license; - Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For more information, please see ACM Copyright Policy (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy) and ACM Author Rights (http://authors.acm.org/main.html) Accepted proposals for system demonstrations will be posted on the symposium website but not formally published in the proceedings. Publication date: The official publication date of accepted papers is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Artifacts ========= Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to make auxiliary material (artifacts like source code, test data, etc.) available with their paper. They can opt to have these artifacts published alongside their paper in the ACM Digital Library (copyright of artifacts remains with the authors). If an accepted paper's artifacts are made permanently available for retrieval in a publicly accessible archival repository like the ACM Digital Library, that paper qualifies for an Artifacts Available badge (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-badging#available) Applications for such a badge can be made after paper acceptance and will be reviewed by the PC chair.
