-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Cfp: AMCIS 2019 SIGODIS Mini- track "Customer Experience and Organizational Intelligence" Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 14:16:06 -0600 From: Donald Heath <heathd(a)uwosh.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org *Track: Semantics, Ontologies, Intelligence and Intelligent Systems (Sponsored by SIGODIS)Mini-Track: Customer Experience and Organizational Intelligence* Don Heath, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, heathd(a)uwosh.edu Aurona Gerber, University of Pretoria, South Africa, Aurona.gerber(a)up.ac.za Increasingly, organizations are interacting with current and potential customers across a plenitude of IT-mediated “touch points”. Consequently, coordinating strategies will likely dominate management thought in the near and intermediate term as the number and variety of these “touch points” continues to expand. Effective strategies will rely on quality practitioner and academic research on a variety of issues, such as how to: differentiate user experience across points of interaction, increase reach to the consumer, improve conversion rates, sustain consumer loyalty, manage the global and the local experience, etc. The end customer is at the focus, with various technologies, devices and networks facilitating seamless computing, communication, collaboration as well as commerce related functionalities to the end users. This is made possible by embedding data, sensors, controllers, and other devices into the physical and virtual spaces of human beings thereby facilitating seamless interactions and co-engagement between the end customer and the organization. This revolution challenges companies to reimagine ways to reach current and potential audiences in a coordinated way across a multitude of channels and devices — both wired and wireless. Intelligent enterprises are exploiting this topology to drawing inferences and develop key analytics by aggregating and mining data about customers, competitors, vendors, markets, and products as well as services. Enterprises are able to garner global and local intelligence enabling them to develop innovative products and services better aligned to market needs. We invite research which addresses or expands on these ideas. Conceptual, empirical and design-oriented works are welcome and will be considered for this mini-track. ** Potential topics for manuscripts include but are not limited to:* - Engaging end customers via a combination of devices and delivery channels - Multi-modal user experiences & Immersive Interaction Technologies - Enhancing customer engagement by combining immersive interaction technologies and multi-modal user experiences - Enabling enterprises to make intelligent decisions related to workforce composition, collaboration, leadership and, employee retention - Pervasive computing devices requiring the need to reach end customers across multitude of devices - Exponential growth of data (both structured as well as unstructured), created by end customers, sensors etc. requiring the need to analyses and visualize the data - Leveraging easy availability of computing power on the go in the form of cloud computing - Decision making by understanding and analyzing the collective intelligence created across various customer touch points as well as social networks. - Better understanding of customer behavior using techniques such as text analytics, natural language processing as well as social network analysis. - Improved visibility across the supply chain and real-time data availability. - Better monitoring of production processes to optimize operations, reduce costs, enhance production as well as prevent and/or detect health and safety issues. - Adaptive systems which respond to touch-point data ***Submission:*** Instructions on how to submit a manuscript can be found here <https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/call-for-papers/>.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CfP: Enabling Technologies and Tools for Next Generation Internet Security (impact factor 3.073) Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 18:49:56 +0000 From: Benjamin Fung, Prof. <ben.fung(a)mcgill.ca> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers Journal: Elsevier Sustainable Cities and Society (SCIE indexed with JCR impact factor 3.073) Special issue: Enabling Technologies and Tools for Next Generation Internet Security Submission deadline: June 1, 2019 https://www.journals.elsevier.com/sustainable-cities-and-society/call-for-p… Internet and its associated technologies are found to be essential for societies and economy worldwide. The most recent form of the Internet is so-called the Next Generation Internet (NGI). NGI has lately become a buzz word – evolved rapidly from the Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of People (IoP) in 2008, to more sophisticated developments in software-defined networking (SDN), network functions virtualization (NFV), 5G and the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)/Industry 4.0 in 2018. Put simply, it is an experimentation-based ecosystem for innovation, which relies on the notion of Network Infrastructure on Demand to gain immersive societal experience. It adopts loads of cutting-edge technologies such as edge computing, trust and security, AI, IoT, Open and linked big data, blockchain and AR/VR. Thus, many global initiatives investigated practical approaches for measuring, exploring and systematically designing the NGI, to be more open, efficient, scalable, and reliable (e.g., BonFIRE, FED4FIRE, CONFINE Connected Communities, and Smart City Canberra). Notwithstanding, the foremost concern of NGI is related to security and privacy, lack of trust, lack of interoperability, loss of memory/heritage. The aim of this special issue is to bring together researchers from academia, industry, and individuals working on relevant research areas to share their latest accomplishments and research findings within the research community. The special issue aims to cover topics that include, but not limited to, the below topics: - Citizen-to-Citizen - Internet Community-based infrastructure - Security of Future Internet - Privacy in Next Generation Internet - Trustworthiness of NGI - Interoperability - Network infrastructure on demand - Immersive experience - Digital economy Digital society Submission Guideline Only original manuscripts can be submitted, according to the 'Guide for Authors' published on the Sustainable Cities and Society website https://www.journals.elsevier.com/sustainable-cities-and-society. As regards the online submission system of Sustainable Cities and Society, the authors are invited to follow the link "Submit your Paper", located in the main page of the Journal website, and submit manuscript to Article Type "VSI: Enabling-NxtG-Inter-Sec" in Sustainable Cities and Society. Please mention the name of the Special Issue in your cover letter. All manuscripts will be peer-reviewed in accordance with the established policies and procedures of the journal. The final papers will be selected for publication depending on the results of the peer review process and the reviews of the Guest Editors and Editor-in-Chief.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP for Secon d International Workshop on Multimedia Pragmatics (MMPrag'19) Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 13:49:39 -0500 From: William Grosky <wgrosky(a)umich.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS SECOND INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON MULTIMEDIA PRAGMATICS (MMPrag'19) March 30, 2019 - San Jose, California Co-Located with the IEEE SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MULTIMEDIA INFORMATION PROCESSING AND RETRIEVAL (MIPR'19) March 28-30, 2019 - San Jose, California Venue: Crowne Plaza San Jose-Silicon Valley Hotel, 777 Bellew Drive, Milpitas, California 95053, +1 (408) 321-9500 Submission Website: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mmprag19 Call for Papers: https://easychair.org/cfp/MMPrag19 Workshop Website: http://mipr.sigappfr.org/19/ ====================================IMPORTANT DATES==================================================================== January 25, 2019 - Submissions due February 1, 2019 - Acceptance notification February 8, 2019 - Camera-ready papers and author registrations due March 30, 2019 - Workshop date ====================================DESCRIPTION========================================================================= Most multimedia objects are spatio-temporal simulacrums of the real world. This supports our view that the next grand challenge for our community will be understanding and formally modeling the flow of life around us, over many modalities and scales. As technology advances, the nature of these simulacrums will evolve as well, becoming more detailed and revealing more information concerning the nature of reality to us. Currently, IoT is the state-of-the-art organizational approach to construct complex representations of the flow of life around us. Various, perhaps pervasive, sensors, working collectively, will broadcast to us representations of real events in real-time. It will be our task to continuously extract the semantics of these representations and possibly react to them by injecting some response actions into the mix to ensure some desired outcome. In linguistics, pragmatics studies context and how it affects semantics. Context is usually culturally, socially, and historically based. For example, pragmatics would encompass a speaker’s intent, body language, and penchant for sarcasm, as well as other signs, often culturally based, such as the speaker’s type of clothing, which could influence a statement’s meaning. Generic signal/sensor- based retrieval should also use syntactical, semantic, and pragmatics-based approaches. If we are to understand and model the flow of life around us, this will be a necessity. Our community has successfully developed various approaches to decode the syntax and semantics of these artifacts. The development of techniques that use contextual information is in its infancy, however. With the expansion of the data horizon, through the ever-increasing use of metadata, we can certainly leverage the semantic representation of all media to a more robust level. The NLP community has its own set of approaches in semantics and pragmatics. Natural language is certainly an excellent exemplar of multimedia, and the use of audio and text features has played a part in the development of our field. After a successful first workshop in Miami, we intend to continue this tradition with the second workshop. ====================================KEYNOTES============================================================================ Keynote 1 -- Adam Pease, Principal Scientist, Infosys Foothill Research, Palo Alto, California, USA *Title: Conceptual Pragmatics: A Library of Logical Definitions *Abstract: What is an apple, a jump or the number 2 and how can we hope to have a computer understand these things with any of the same depth or richness that people do? We now have machine learning systems that can mimic, at some level, human sensory subsystems, recognizing objects in pictures, or voices and words in streams of audio. But we also need a cognitive-level representation - one that not only can recognize patterns but also hold information about those patterns that allows for explanation and communication. A person can describe a previously unseen object to another person, who can then recognize it and understand its characteristics before seeing it, and before seeing it a million times. Someone who has never seen a child skip can still be told how to recognize skipping. We can tell another person the context of skipping, as an isolated action or the likely context in which such actions occur. In this talk I describe a unified corpus of logically-expressed and computable meaning about concepts that has application in language and image understanding. It is a library of pragmatics that can be used to express facts independently of whether they are learned over many presentations of visual or auditory data, or related in communication. I also describe its application in image recognition and language understanding. *Biography: Adam Pease is a Principal Scientist at the Infosys Foothill Research Center in Palo Alto. He has led research in ontology, linguistics, and formal inference, including development of the Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO), the Controlled English to Logic Translation (CELT) system, and the Sigma knowledge engineering environment. Sharing research under open licenses, in order to achieve the widest possible dissemination and technology transfer, has been a core element of his research program. He is the author of the book “Ontology: A Practical Guide”. ------------------------------------ Keynote 2 -- Amit Sheth -- Professor and Executive Director of Kno.e.sis, Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio, USA *Title: On Exploiting Multimodal Information for Machine Intelligence and Natural Interactions - With Examples from Health Chatbots *Abstract: The Holy Grail of machine intelligence is the ability to mimic the human brain. In computing, we have created silos in dealing with each modality (text/language processing, speech processing,image processing, video processing, etc.). However, the human brain’s cognitive and perceptual capability to seamlessly consume (listen and see) and communicate (writing/typing, voice, gesture) multimodal (text, image, video, etc.) information challenges the machine intelligence research. Emerging chatbots for demanding health applications present the requirements for these capabilities. To support the corresponding data analysis and reasoning needs, we have to explore a pedagogical framework consisting of semantic computing, cognitive computing, and perceptual computing (http://bit.ly/w-SCP). In particular, we have been motivated by the brain’s amazing perceptive power that abstracts massive amounts of multimodal data by filtering and processing them into a few concepts (representable by a few bits) to act upon. From the information processing perspective, this requires moving from syntactic and semantic big data processing to actionable information that can be weaved naturally into human activities and experience (http://bit.ly/w-CHE). Exploration of the above research agenda, including powerful use cases, is afforded in a growing number of emerging technologies and their applications - such as chatbots and robotics. In this talk, I will provide these examples and share the early progress we have made towards building health chatbots (http://bit.ly/H-Chatbot) that consume contextually relevant multimodal data and support different forms/modalities of interactions to achieve various alternatives for digital health ( http://bit.ly/k-APH). I will also discuss the indispensable role of domain knowledge and personalization using domain and personalized knowledge graphs as part of various reasoning and learning techniques. *Biography: Amit Sheth is an educator, researcher, and entrepreneur. He is the LexisNexis Ohio Eminent Scholar, and IEEE Fellow, an AAAI Fellow, and the executive director of Kno.e.sis - the Ohio Center of Excellence in Knowledge-enabled Computing. Kno.e.sis. is a multi- disciplinary Ohio Center of Excellence in BioHealth Innovation. Its faculty and researchers are computer scientists, cognitive scientists, biomedical researchers, and clinicians. Sheth is working towards a vision of Computing for Human Experience enabled by the capabilities at the intersection of AI (semantic, cognitive, and perceptual computing), Big and Smart Data (exploiting multimodal Physical-Cyber-Social data), and Augmented Personalized Health. His recent work has involved Web 3.0 technologies and involves enterprise, social sensor/IoT data and applications. ====================================AREAS=============================================================================== Authors are invited to submit regular papers (6 pages), short papers (4 pages), demo papers (4 pages), and extended abstracts (1 page max for a 5-minute presentation) at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mmprag19.

Online content (e.g., online reviews, eWOM via tweets, likes) that differ in nature, frequency, reach, propagation speed, etc., by orders of magnitude, can be continuously captured at the finest level of granularity. Unstructured data in the form of text and emoticons communicated over OSN provides a lean yet in many ways unique and emotionally rich means of communication that has the potential to influence message receivers (consumers, colleagues, stakeholders, etc.). Such unstructured data in OSN presents research challenges that go beyond sentiment analysis, and include nuanced aspects such as uncertainty and specificity. Adoption of OSN affects behavior and decision-making in unique ways. This minitrack invites original research on the use of analytical techniques and theories of social network analysis to understand social influence, behavior, and decision-making, data models, network structure and information diffusion, and social network analysis. Topics may include the following: – Emerging architecture for scalable social media analytics – Online social networks and geospatial analytics – Communities structure discoveries such as profiling participants and subgroups – User sentiment analysis, opinion mining, and recommendation analysis – Visual online social network analytics – Use of theories to understand user communication patterns and behavior in social media – Network dynamics in the form of population and structural effects – Impact of online social networks on decision-making at individual and organizational levels – Influence of online social networks on markets – Information privacy and security in online social networks Mini-Track Chairs: Amit Deokar, University of Massachusetts Lowell, amit_deokar(a)uml.edu Babita Gupta, California State University Monterey Bay, bgupta(a)csumb.edu Uday Kulkarni, Arizona State University, uday.kulkarni(a)asu.edu _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

The IoT network can generate large amounts of data in a variety of formats and using different protocols which can be stored and processed in the cloud. The conference looks to address the issues surrounding IoT devices, their interconnectedness and services they may offer, including efficient, effective and secure analysis of the data IoT produces using machine learning and other advanced techniques, models and tools, and issues of security, privacy and trust that will emerge as IoT technologies mature and become part of our everyday lives. Big Data (BD) has core values of volume, velocity, variety and veracity. After collecting much data from IoT, BD can be jointly used with machine learning, AI, statistical and other advanced techniques, models and methods, which can create values for people and organizations adopting it, since forecasting, deep analysis and analytics can help identify weaknesses and make improvements based on different analysis. Maintaining a high level of security and privacy for data in IoT are crucial and we welcome recommendations, solutions, demonstrations and best practices for all forms of security and privacy for IoT and BD. Conference Areas: 1 - Big Data Research 2 - Emerging Services and Analytics 3 - Internet of Things (IoT) Fundamentals 4 - Internet of Things (IoT) Applications 5 - Big Data for Multi-discipline Services 6 - Security, Privacy and Trust 7 - IoT Technologies In Cooperation with Eurocloud National Portuguese ICT Cluster DNS.PT Technically Co-Sponsorship by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers With the presence of internationally distinguished keynote speaker : Francisco Herrera, University of Granada Spain ---------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES ---------------------------- Position Papers Paper Submission: January 24, 2019 Authors Notification: February 28, 2019 Camera Ready and Registration: March 14, 2019 Doctoral Consortium Paper Submission: March 7, 2019 Authors Notification: March 20, 2019 Camera Ready and Registration: March 28, 2019 Tutorials Tutorial Proposal: March 20, 2019 Demos Demo Proposal: March 20, 2019 Panels Panel Proposal: January 30, 2018 Open Communications Paper Submission: March 7, 2019 Authors Notification: March 20, 2019 Camera Ready and Registration: March 28, 2019 European Project Space Paper Submission: March 15, 2019 Authors Notification: March 25, 2019 Registration: April 4, 2019 Note: All dates refer to AOE time, i.e. "Anywhere on Earth" ---------------------------- PUBLICATION ---------------------------- Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: DBLP, Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, EI, SCOPUS and Semantic Scholar.

Tutorials are intensive instructional sessions aimed to provide a comprehensive introduction to established or emerging research topics of interest for the UMAP community. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • new user modeling technologies, methods, techniques, and trends (e.g. exploiting data mining and big data analytics for user modeling, evaluation methodologies, data visualization, etc.); • user modeling and personalization techniques for specific domains (e.g., health sciences, e-government, e-commerce, cultural heritage, education, internet of things, mobile, music, information retrieval, etc.); • application of user modeling and personalization techniques for information retrieval and recommender systems; • eliciting and learning user preferences by taking into account users’ emotional state, physical state, personality, trust, cognitive factors. An ideal tutorial should be broad enough to provide a basic introduction to the chosen area, but it should also cover the most important topics in depth. Tutorial presenters can have one page in the adjunct proceedings. PROPOSAL FORMAT AND SUBMISSION Tutorial proposals should be submitted in PDF format to both tutorial chairs, not exceeding 5 pages and containing the following information: 1. Title and abstract of the tutorial for inclusion on the ACM UMAP 2019 website (200 words maximum). 2. Tutorial description: • learning objectives of the tutorial and relevance to ACM UMAP 2019; • targeted audience (introductory, intermediate, advanced) and prerequisite knowledge or skills; • a brief outline of the tutorial structure; • practical sessions. 3. Tutorial length: full (6 hours) or half day (3 hours). 4. Other venues to which the tutorial or part thereof has been or will be presented, in addition to explaining how the current tutorial differs from the other editions. 5. Name, email address, affiliation and brief professional biography of the tutorial instructor(s), indicating previous training and speaking experience.
