Subject: [AISWorld] HICSS 2021 [CFP] Explainable Artificial
Intelligence (XAI) mini track
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 08:23:19 +1100
From: Babak Abedin <babak.abedin(a)gmail.com>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org
Dear Colleagues,
Please consider submitting to HICSS 2021: Explainable Artificial
Intelligence (XAI) mini track (
https://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-54/decision-analytics-and-service-science/#…
).
Fast track journal opportunity at *Information Systems Frontiers *
*Description*:
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the context of decision
analytics and service science has received significant attention in
academia and practice alike. Yet, much of the current efforts have focused
on advancing underlying algorithms and not on decreasing the complexity of
AI systems. AI systems are still “black boxes” that are difficult to
comprehend—not only for developers, but particularly for users and
decision-makers. Also, the development and use of AI is associated with
many risks and pitfalls like biases in data or predictions based on
spurious correlations (“Clever Hans” phenomena), which eventually may lead
to malfunctioning or biased AI and hence technologically driven
discrimination.
This is where research on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) comes
in. Also referred to as “transparent,” “interpretable,” or “understandable
AI,” XAI aims to “produce explainable models, while maintaining a high
level of learning performance (prediction accuracy); and enable human users
to understand, appropriately, trust, and effectively manage the emerging
generation of artificially intelligent partners”. XAI hence refers to “the
movement, initiatives, and efforts made in response to AI transparency and
trust concerns, more than to a formal technical concept”, eventually
impacting task performance of users.
With a focus on decision support, this minitrack aims to explore and extend
research on how to establish explainability of intelligent black box
systems—machine learning-based or not. We especially look for contributions
that investigate XAI from either a developer’s or user’s perspective. We
invite submissions from all application domains, such as healthcare,
finance, e-commerce, retail, public administration or others. Technically
and method-oriented studies as well as design science or behavioral science
approaches are welcome.
*Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:*
- *The developers’ perspective on XAI*
- XAI to open, control and evaluate black box algorithms
- Using XAI to identify bias in data
- Explainability and Human-in-the-Loop development of AI
- XAI to support interactive machine learning
- Prevention and detection of deceptive AI explanations
- XAI to discover deep knowledge and learn from AI
- *The users’ perspective on XAI*
- Presentation and personalization of AI explanations for different
target groups
- XAI to increase situational awareness, compliance behavior and task
performance
- XAI for transparency and unbiased decision making
- Impact of explainability on AI-based decision support systems use
and adoption
- Explainability of AI in crisis situations
- Potential harm of explainability in AI
We provide the opportunity for (extended) best papers of this minitrack to
be fast-tracked to the Information Systems Frontiers (ISF) journal.

**
*Learning for life: Designing for sustainability of tech-learning
networks of older adults*
/A workshop at ECSCW 2020, June 14, in Siegen, Germany./
http://bit.ly/39a2RP9
*Scope*
In today's complex society we need to learn on a daily basis during our
whole life, especially when it comes to new digital tools on which our
lives are increasingly more dependent. However, the way digital tools
are designed is not well adjusted to learning how to use these tools in
the later part of life. As a result, many older adults struggle with the
integration of digital tools into their daily lives. Recently, older
adults started to be involved in design through sustainable
participatory approaches. However, this group is very heterogeneous and
characterised by varied needs that have to be addressed with a fitting
approach that is currently missing in E/CSCW and participatory design.
In this workshop we therefore want to bring together researchers from
different disciplines to develop new approaches that will help us to
design for sustainable tech-learning networks of older adults.

Subject: [WI] CfP 2nd Workshop on the Value and Quality of Enterprise
Modelling, (VEnMo 2020)

***********************************************************************
2nd Workshop on the Value and Quality of Enterprise Modelling (VEnMo 2020)
in conjunction with the
22nd IEEE International Conference on Business Informatics (CBI 2020)
June 22-24, 2020 in Antwerp
***********************************************************************
In computer science and information systems development, Enterprise
Modelling (EM) is used for different purposes, like representing
requirements, visualizing established work processes, specifying system
design, expressing information structures, formalizing the relationships
between organizational structures and IT landscapes and many more. Despite
this large spectrum of modeling purposes and use cases, the value of
modelling in general and of Enterprise Models in particular is still subject
of research.
The 2nd VEnMo Workshop invites researchers and practitioners with strong
interest in the value of Enterprise Modelling to discuss approaches and
experiences in measuring, assessing, evaluating, and improving the value of
enterprise related models like Enterprise Models, Enterprise Architecture
Models, or Business Process Models. While it is common sense that EM adds
value to organizations, existing research is still vague regarding how this
value manifests. Therefore, the workshop aims to shed light on existing as
well as new theories, concepts and frameworks for describing, understanding
and measuring the added value of EM.
One important aspect in this context may be the quality of EM, as only
models of an adequate quality with respect to their intended purpose allow
organizations to exploit the full value of EM. Therefore, the workshop
further encourages researchers or practitioners to report on insights or
approaches how to assess the quality of enterprise models.
However, we support a broad interpretation of the topics „value“ and
„quality“ and encourage submissions also in related areas.
**Topics**
• interpretations or conceptualizations of the terms “value” and
“quality” in the context of Enterprise related Models (EM, EA models, BPM,
…)
• new approaches to measure, assess, evaluate, or improve the value of
enterprise related models
• interrelations between model, method, and tool value
• perceived value of models, methods, and tools
• stakeholder perspectives on value and quality of EM
• metrics, quantitative, and qualitative approaches to assess the
quality of enterprise related models.
• theories or best practices for maximizing modelling value •
relationship between quality, quantity and value • management of value
aspects in modelling • case studies and industrial experience reports on
successful or
failed application of approaches to assess the value or quality of
enterprise related models.
• tools, infrastructure and environments supporting the assessment of
value or quality of enterprise related models.
• empirical studies, evaluation and comparison of measurement
techniques and models.
• we support a broad interpretation of the topics „value“ and
„quality“ and encourage submissions also in related areas.
**Submissions**
Two kinds of papers will be accepted: • Full papers with a page limit of
8 pages, • Short papers with a page limit of 5 pages.
Papers should be written in English, following the IEEE double column format
and should be submitted through the VEnMo easychair installation, accessible
via https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=venmo2020. The workshop
proceedings will be published at CEUR-WS.
**(Tentative) Key Dates**
• Workshop papers submission deadline: April 27, 2020

Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: AI, Data Analytics & Automated Decision Making
Track at IFIP EGOV-CeDEM-EPART 2020
Date: Sat, 7 Mar 2020 17:13:00 +0000
From: Habin Lee (Staff) <Habin.Lee(a)brunel.ac.uk>

AI, Data Analytics & Automated Decision Making Track
at EGOV2020 - IFIP EGOV-CeDEM-EPART 2020
Linköping University, Sweden
31 August (Monday) - 2 September (Wednesday), 2020
As the Fourth Industrial Revolution creates new tools for conducting
economic activities in the private sector, it also provides the public
sector with tools for creating public value and engaging in digital
transformation. While ICT has been fundamental for digitalising public
services, the public sector increasingly relies on Internet of Things
(IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), (Big) Data Analytics (BDA),
Blockchain, 5G, Adaptive manufacturing / 3D technologies, wireless and
related technologies to accelerate and increase the impact of digital
transformation.
As citizens are spending more time on the Internet, their digital
footprints are becoming easier to collect, forming massive
interconnected networks of data. Innovative methods and tools to analyse
such data and understand policy implications are in urgent demand. In
particular, open data and open government initiatives can create bigger
synergy and impact when integrated with new technologies.
However, the use of new technologies by government has some serious
ethical and policy implications. Complementing or replacing human-made
public service with AI, automating decisions of consequence to people's
lives, harvesting interconnected data about individuals, etc. raise the
risk that exclusion, injustice and privacy violations can happen on a
massive scale. Decision made through (Big) Data Analytics and policy
modelling tool may generate optimal solutions from an economic
perspective, but not from a social inclusion perspective, or give rise
to transparency and fairness concerns. Privacy and security issues with
regards to citizens' everyday digital footprints also have legal and
policy implications.
This track invites papers that can advance theoretical, practical and
policy questions on those issues. Papers are expected to address the
topics including but not limited to:
* Adoption of robotics-based public services
* AI and labour displacement in the public sector
* AI applications in the public sector
* AI and policy monitoring and analytics
* AI-enabled smart cities
* AI in government and discriminatory bias
* Big data analytics for policy modelling
* Co-creation via AI and big data analytics
* Computational analysis methods for open data
* Consequential decisions and AI in government
* Decision support system for policy makers
* Digital transformation via AI
* Disruptive services in public sector
* Impact of AI on social cohesion
* IoT applications in public services
* Privacy issues in big data analytics
* Qualitative policy modelling
* Quality of AI-enabled public services
Important Dates:
* (Hard) deadline for submissions: 17 March 2020
* Notification of acceptance: 30 April 2020

CO-LOCATED with the 36th International Conference on Logic Programming
(ICLP 2020)
==================================================================================
= PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS =
== Important Dates - Tentative schedule ==
Paper submission: June 26, 2020
Notification to authors: July 13, 2020
Camera-ready copy due: July 25, 2020
Main Conference starts: September 24, 2020
= The Conference =
CILC (Italian Conference on Computational Logic) is the annual conference
organized by GULP (Group of researchers and Users of Logic Programming,
http://www.programmazionelogica.it/). Its 35th edition will be held in
Cosenza (Italy) on September 24-25, 2020.
Since the first event of the series, which took place in Genoa in 1986,
the annual GULP conference represents the main opportunity for users,
researchers and developers working in the field of computational logic to
meet and exchange ideas. Over the years the conference broadened its
horizons from the specific field of logic programming to include
declarative programming and applications in neighboring areas such as
artificial intelligence and deductive databases.
= Contributions =
The conference will feature presentations of refereed contributions,
including the demonstration of software prototypes, concerning all aspects
of computational logic.
The conference invites two types of submissions:
* full papers, possibly already submitted to other conferences or journals
* short papers, which are particularly suitable for presenting work in
progress, software prototypes, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, or
general overviews of research projects.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Logic Programming, Constraint Programming and other paradigms of
declarative programming
- Extensions and integrations of declarative programming paradigms
- Analysis, transformation, validation, and verification of programs
- Instruments and environments for program development
- Implementations and benchmarking
- Model Checking
- Temporal logics
- Automated Theorem Proving
- Non-Monotonic Reasoning
- Answer Set Programming
- Knowledge representation and extraction
- Treatment of uncertain and incomplete knowledge
- Approximate Reasoning
- Abductive Logic Programming
- Model-based Reasoning
- Deductive Databases
- Data Mining and Data Integration
- Multi-agent systems
- Logics for strategic reasoning
- Semantic Web
- Natural Language Processing
- Computational logic for concurrency, coordination, mobility and objects
- Planning and scheduling
- Probabilistic Logic Programming
- Computational Logic and formal methods in Artificial Intelligence
- Applications of Computational Logic
- Pedagogy of Computational Logic
- Applications of Computational Logic
- Inductive Logic Programming
- Computational Logic and Machine Learning
In particular, we also invite submissions of system or prototype software
descriptions which use techniques or tools of computational logic, or
which themselves aid the development of applications based on
computational logic. Systems of both research and industrial character are
welcome. Submissions must include a brief description, prepared according
to the guidelines given for short papers, and a specification of the
required hardware and software equipment.
= Submission Details =
Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts in PDF via the EasyChair
system at the link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cilc20200
Articles must not exceed 15 pages for full papers and 8 pages for short
papers, respectively.
Manuscripts should be formatted using the Springer LNCS style.
To ease the reviewing process, the authors of regular papers may add an
appendix (although reviewers are not required to consider it in their
evaluation).
All contributions must be written in English.
For each accepted contribution, at least one of the authors is required to
attend the conference and present the paper. The event is organized by
GULP. Therefore, Italian attendants are required to be members of GULP (it
is possible to join GULP at the conference).
= Proceedings and Journal Special Issue =
All accepted original contributions (both full and short) will be
published on CEUR-WS.org. Non-original communications will be given
visibility on the conference web site including a link to the original
publication, if already published.
In the trail of the CILC tradition, we plan to publish a selection of the
papers in a SPECIAL ISSUE of an international journal (to be determined).
Extensions of accepted non-original contributions, if not published in a
journal yet, might be included in the issue.

9th International Workshop on Next Generation of System Assurance
Approaches for Critical Systems - SASSUR 2020
Santander, Spain, June 12th, 2020
In conjunction with the 25th Ada-Europe International Conference on
Reliable Software Technologies (Ada-Europe 2020)
http://www.sassur.org
********************************************************************
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper submission: March 31st, 2020
Notification to authors: April 30th, 2020
Camera-ready version: May 15th, 2020
********************************************************************
System assurance and certification are amongst the most expensive and
time-consuming tasks in the engineering of critical systems, e.g.
safety-critical, security-critical, mission-critical, and
business-critical ones. Assurance and certification require the
execution of complex and labour-intensive activities, e.g. the
management of compliance with hundreds or thousands of criteria defined
in standards, the management of a large volume of evidence artefacts
throughout a system's lifecycle to demonstrate compliance, or the
provision of convincing and valid justifications that a system is
dependable. Therefore, the companies developing critical systems or
components, as well as the companies assessing them, need approaches
that facilitate these activities and ideally increase their efficiency.
The challenges arising from system assurance and certification are
further growing as a result of the evolution of critical systems, e.g.
towards cyber-physical systems. In general, practitioners
expect improvements in the available method and tool support for
assurance and certification.
The SASSUR workshop is intended to explore new ideas on assurance and
certification of critical systems. In particular, SASSUR will provide a
forum for thematic presentations and in-depth discussions about
specification, analysis, reuse, composition, and combination of
assurance arguments, of assurance evidence, and of contextual
information about critical products, in a way that makes assurance and
certification more cost-effective, precise, and scalable.
SASSUR aims at bringing together experts, researchers, and practitioners
from diverse communities, such as safety, privacy, and security
engineering, certification processes, model-based engineering, software
and hardware design, critical system development, and application
communities (transport, healthcare, industrial automation, robotics,
nuclear, defence, etc.).
TOPICS
Contributions are sought in (but are not limited to) the following topics:
- Industrial challenges for cost-effective assurance and certification
of critical systems
- Assurance and certification of autonomous or adaptive systems
- Cross-domain product certification
- Integration of process-centric and product-centric assurance
- Management of compliance with standards and regulations
- Management of assurance evidence
- Development of assurance cases
- Multi-concern (safety, security, privacy, reliability...) system
engineering and assurance
- Evolutionary approaches for system assurance
- Tools support for assurance and certification
- Evolution of standards and trends on regulations
- Human factors in dependability assurance
- COTS or external sourcing management of evidence in critical systems
- Mixed-criticality system assurance
- Model-based system assurance and certification
- Emergent V&V needs for assurance and certification
- Assurance for new technologies and for their application (e.g. blockchain)
- Security debt
- Agile approaches in the context of critical systems
- Methods and techniques to assure artificial intelligence algorithms
INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS
