I am reaching out to share information about a workshop I am co-organizing at CHI 2019. I would love to see some submissions from Toronto! Also, please forward to people you think will be interested.
— CALL FOR PAPERS —
Workshop on Emerging Perspectives in Human-Centered Machine Learning
In this workshop, practitioners at the intersection of ML and HCI will present emerging perspectives in the field of Human-Centered Machine Learning. Through a focused discussion of different positions including pros and cons on democratizing ML, humans as rich sources of knowledge to teach machines, and explainable ML, we aim to articulate an updated HCML research agenda and strengthen this community moving forward.
Held in conjunction with ACM 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems - Glasgow, UK - May 4-9 2019 - http://chi2019.acm.org/
The organizing committee will review the submissions and accepted papers will be presented at the workshop. We ask that at least one of the authors of each accepted position paper attends the workshop. Presenting authors must register for the workshop and at least one full day of the conference.
Each presentation will take place within a session focused around a particular theme. Sessions will consist of 3-4 presentations, each lasting approximately 10 minutes and will be followed by a group discussion.
