International Workshop on Social Intelligent Agent Technology
http://siat2014.tbm.tudelft.nl/
Co-located with IAT: http://wic2014.mimuw.edu.pl/iat, 11-14 August 2014
Submission deadline: 23 March 2014
This workshop brings together researchers from computer science, artificial intelligence, cognitive science and social science to discuss and set a roadmap for the research into new models, methods and techniques for the design and evaluation of artificial social intelligence.
We plan to edit a special issue on the topic containing extended versions of the best workshop papers. More information follows soon.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
• human-computer/agent/robot interaction as a collaboration and coordination between multiple intelligent actors (human, artificial).
• social interaction signals
• computational interpretation and simulation of social science theories
• representation and reasoning abilities for socio-relational capabilities
• architectures and engineering techniques for social agents
• models and insights on the new social reality integrating virtual and physical experience
• design and evaluation of social abilities and qualities.
• social-emotional qualities (empathy), motivation, …
• relation between embodiment and cognition
• models and design for joint attention, perceptual common ground, synchronization of physical actions
• interpretation of physical events in terms of a social situation
• how do we deal with contradictory values and underlying concerns of the humans in the system?
• mutual adaptation, learning and coordination (from roles and role-taking to partner models).
• situation awareness
• long-term relationships between human and artificial actors
• measures for quality of experience and longitudinal effects and concerns of systems consisting of human and artificial actors
