-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - The Bright Side and the Dark Side of Digital Health, Internet Research (SSCI, ABDC 'A' JCR Q1) Date: Fri, 8 May 2020 01:10:01 +0900 From: Young Hoon Chang <younghoonchang(a)gmail.com> To: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org Internet Research Call for Papers The Bright Side and the Dark Side of Digital Health （ https://www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/products/journals/call_for_papers.ht… ） Submission due: September 1, 2020 Guest Editors Zhijun Yan - Beijing Institute of Technology, China, yanzhijun(a)bit.edu.cn Roberta Bernardi - University of Bristol, UK, roberta.bernardi(a)bristol.ac.uk Nina (Ni) Huang - Arizona State University, US, nhuang6(a)asu.edu Younghoon Chang - Beijing Institute of Technology, China, younghoonchang(a)bit.edu.cn Overview of Special Issue Digital technology has been transforming how individuals, organizations, and societies use information to improve their decision making on their daily lives and daily operations. In recent years, the healthcare industry has also actively engaged in the adoption of digital technology and enabled the formation of digital health. The digital health covers lots of advanced technologies, such as mobile health (mHealth), health information technology (HIT), wearable devices, telehealth and telemedicine, health data analytics and personalized medicine (Lupton 2018). These technologies offer new exciting opportunities to improve medical outcomes, enhance efficiency and balance health resources. In particular, digital health can better collect, process and analyze health-related information, and provide decision support for patients, doctors, healthcare organizations, public health management and medical research (Guha and Kumar 2018). There are many positive and negative issues associated with the use of digital health by these stakeholders. On the one hand, digital health can empower patients to make better decisions about their own health and provide new options for facilitating prevention, early diagnosis, surveillance, management and prediction of chronic conditions outside traditional healthcare settings (Lin et al. 2017). Doctors can also get a more holistic view of patient health through access to data and improve quality of care (Lin et al. 2019). Pharmaceutical companies and digital health companies can also benefit from patient-generated knowledge for the advancement of medical research (Kallinikos and Tempini 2014) and the design of personalized healthcare interventions (Bernardi 2019). On the other hand, the integration of digital technology in the healthcare industry presents risks such as the spread of misinformation (e.g. anti-vax communities, Doty 2015), the disclosure of patients' privacy that could be used by health insurance companies to make discriminatory pricing (McFall and Moor 2018), increased doctors' technical anxiety and slow acceptance of digital health innovation (Bernardi and Exworthy 2019), and health inequalities due to the digital exclusion of patients (Latulippe et al. 2017; Halford and Savage 2010). The healthcare industry is one of the largest and also one of the most important industries for citizens’ wellbeing. Addressing the complexities of today’s various negative and positive healthcare issues requires more than one perspective and needs more interdisciplinary collaboration and research. The rapid development of advanced technologies and methodologies such as social media, Internet of things (IoT) data analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) brings lots of opportunities to handle the complicated problems in the healthcare industry. It makes it possible to improve people’s health conditions smartly and comfortably. However, the adoption of digital technology in health care usually lags behind other industries, as some major technological and managerial obstacles still remain (Bunduchi et al. 2015). Obstacles include the lack of health data integration, data overload issues, data privacy and security, and limited or inefficient data visualization (Agarwal et al. 2010). At the same time, academics need to address the issues related to the dark side and potential risks of digital health. This special issue aims to serve as a forum in which healthcare, computer science, management and social science scholars can come together to discuss new emerging issues related to the bright side and the dark side of digital health. It invites submissions from a variety of methodological, theoretical, and multidisciplinary perspectives. Theoretical work that engages critically with the debate about the bright and dark sides of digital health is also welcome. In bringing technical, behavioral, clinical, and managerial perspectives together, this special issue hopes to generate new insights into the design, adoption, utilization, and management of digital health as well as an understanding of its risks and adverse consequences for individuals, organizations, and societies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Participating behavior of digital health • Knowledge sharing and knowledge seeking of online health communities • Knowledge discovery and decision support based on online health communities and clinical decision-making systems • Social and economic return of digital health • Data privacy, trust and security in digital health • Fake information and information fraud in online health communities • Online-offline data integration and analytics • Organizational, operational, clinical and financial implications of digital health • Health, social and economic impact of digital health • Big data analytics and artificial intelligence application • Theories, models and classification frameworks that shed light on the bright side and dark side of digital health • Methods for studying the bright side and dark side of digital health and its impact on individuals, communities (societies) and organizations • Understanding how individuals, communities and organizations can minimize, prevent or respond to the dark side of digital health • Understanding what motivates individuals, communities and organizations to deliberately engage in digital health • Examining the dark side (outcomes, behaviors and practices) that accidently or unintentionally emerge in digital health • The ethics of the dark sides of digital health (especially with recent AI developments and uses in digital health) • Region, sector and industry-focused studies on the bright side and dark side of digital health • Economic impact of digital health on the healthcare industry • The effects of digital health on epidemic or pandemic outbreaks Important dates • Submission due: September 1, 2020 • 1st round review decision: November 30, 2020 • Revised submission due: December 31, 2020 • 2nd round final review decision: January 31, 2021 • Publication: 2021 Special Event – DHA 2020 The guest-editors organize a conference “2nd International Conference on Digital Health and Medical Analysis” in Beijing Institute of Technology on 1-2 July 2020 (https://www.dha2020.org/).

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] HICSS 54 CFP on open science practices in information systems research Date: Wed, 6 May 2020 22:11:49 +0000 From: Cathal Doyle <cathal.doyle(a)vuw.ac.nz> Reply-To: Cathal Doyle <cathal.doyle(a)vuw.ac.nz> To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu <wi(a)lists.kit.edu> Kia ora (Hello) We’re delighted to announce we’re running a minitrack at HICSS 54 on open science practices in information systems research. The objective of this minitrack is to give researchers the opportunity to present novel and innovative ways that they are conducting research using open science. In doing so we aim to push the boundary of how IS research is conducted and communicated to the community. In order to do so, we are looking for both conceptual and empirical papers that either further our understanding of open science in IS research, or studies that practice it. Thus, we invite papers that focus on (but is not limited to) any of the following topics around open science in IS research: * Philosophical considerations * Ethical implications * Methodological considerations * Papers that practice one (or more) concepts of open science in their study * Registered reports in IS research (can be either stage 1 or stage 2) * Understanding of different platforms/tools for practicing open science You can read more on the HICSS website: https://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-54/collaboration-systems-and-technologies/#… If you’re interested, please submit a paper for review. If not, could you please forward this message to your networks, or to other colleagues you think might be interested. Further, here are links to two papers that provide a good introduction to open science: “We need the open artefact: Design Science as a pathway to Open Science in Information Systems research” (https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/ye6xp) and “This paper is an artefact: On open science practices in design science research using registered reports” (https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/d8hej). And here is a paper practicing open science that was accepted for JAIS: “New Guidelines for Null Hypothesis Significance Testing in Hypothetico-Deductive IS Research” (https://doi.org/10.31235/osf.io/5qr7v). If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Fwd: [WI] ACM RecSys 2020 3rd Call for Reproducibility Papers and COVID Update
by Gustaf Neumann 07 May '20

07 May '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] ACM RecSys 2020 3rd Call for Reproducibility Papers and COVID Update Date: Thu, 07 May 2020 15:27:47 +0000 From: flaviovdf(a)dcc.ufmg.br Reply-To: flaviovdf(a)dcc.ufmg.br To: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Call for Reproducibility Papers ** IMPORTANT NOTE ** Due to concerns about COVID-19, RecSys 2020 will cancel its physical component and go fully virtual. To support authors through these stressful times, deadlines are extended. RecSys also strongly encourages the submission of algorithmic papers that repeat and analyze prior work. We distinguish between: * replicability papers, which repeat prior experiments using the original source code and datasets to show how, why, and when the methods work (or not); and * reproducibility papers, which repeat prior experiments preferably using the original source code in new contexts (e.g., different application domains and datasets, different evaluation methodologies and metrics) to further generalize and validate (or not) previous work. Submissions regarding replicability or reproducibility papers are welcome in all areas related to recommender systems (see the main track Call for Papers for a list of topics). In both replicability and reproducibility papers, we expect authors to provide all materials required for repeating the tests performed, including code, data, and clear instructions on how to run the experiments. Submissions from the same authors of the reproduced experiments will not be accepted. Each accepted paper will be included in the conference proceedings and presented in a plenary session as part of the main conference program. Each accepted paper will also be allocated a presentation slot in a poster session to encourage discussion and follow-up between authors and attendees. REVIEW CRITERIA Both replicability and reproducibility papers will be evaluated along the following criteria: Novelty * What is new about the reproduced experiments? * Was the original work not supported from the theoretical point of view? * Were the original experiments not clear about important points or lacking confirmation for some of the original claims? * (Reproducibility papers only): Do the reproduced experiments bring more solid conclusions, with new datasets and metrics, with unbiased evaluation setups? * (Reproducibility papers only): Are there new experiments that allow for a better understanding of the impact of previous results? Impact * How important is the reproduction of the experiments to the community? * How obvious are the conclusions achieved? * Do the reproduced prior works, if validated, advance a central topic to recommender systems (a topic with a broad applicability or focused on a hot research area)? Reliability * Is the evaluation methodology in line with the research challenges addressed by the reproduced experiment? * Are the selected baselines representative of the several algorithm types and techniques available? * Is the hyperparameter tuning strategy properly described? * Are algorithms and baselines properly tuned? Availability * Are the code and datasets used to reproduce the experiments available to the reviewers at the time of review? * Is the shared material released in a permanent repository for easy access by researchers? * Are the reproduced experiments well documented, with all the details required for other researchers to reproduce the experiments, as well? * Are there discrepancies between what is described in the paper and what is available in the shared material? * Is the shared material complete with everything you need to exactly replicate the experiments? SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submissions and reviews will be handled electronically. Papers must be submitted to PCS by 23:59, AoE (Anywhere on Earth) on June 1st, 2020. There will be no extensions to the submission deadline. Formatting. ACM is changing the archive format of its publications to separate content from presentation in the new Digital Library, enhance accessibility, and improve the flexibility and resiliency of our publications. Following the new ACM publication workflow, all authors should submit manuscripts for review in a single-column format. Paper length is suggested to range between 7 pages (for reproductions of a single algorithm) to 14 pages (for reproductions of multiple algorithms). In any case, the maximum length is 14 pages (excluding references) in the new single-column format. Instructions for Word and LaTeX authors are given below: * Microsoft Word: Write your paper using the Submission Template (Review Submission Format). Follow the embedded instructions to apply the paragraph styles to your various text elements. The text is in single-column format at this stage and no additional formatting is required at this point. * LaTeX: Please use the latest version of the Master Article Template - LaTeX to create your submission. You must use the "manuscript" option with the \documentclass[manuscript]{acmart} command to generate the output in a single-column format which is required for review. Please see the LaTeX documentation and ACM's LaTeX best practices guide for further instructions. To ensure 100% compatibility with The ACM Publishing System (TAPS), please restrict the use of packages to the whitelist of approved LaTeX packages. Authors are strongly encouraged to provide "alt text" (alternative text) for floats (images, tables, etc.) in their content so that readers with disabilities can be given descriptive information for these floats that are important to the work. The descriptive text will be displayed in place of a float if the float cannot be loaded. This benefits the author as well as it broadens the reader base for the author's work. Moreover, the alt text provides in-depth float descriptions to search engine crawlers, which helps to properly index these floats. Should you have any questions or issues going through the instructions above, please contact support at acmtexsupport(a)aptaracorp.com for both LaTeX and Microsoft Word inquiries. Accepted papers will be later submitted to ACM's new production platform where authors will be able to review PDF and HTML output formats before publication. Anonymity. Papers in the reproducibility track will undergo single-blind review. It is expected that at the time of submission, code and datasets used to reproduce the experiments will be available under reasonably liberal terms and sufficiently well-documented such that reviewers may consult that documentation as they conduct their reviews. Originality. Each paper should not be previously published or accepted to any peer-reviewed journal or conference/workshop, nor currently under review elsewhere (including as another paper submission for RecSys 2020). We do not prevent authors from submitting the same paper to institutional or other preprint repositories such as arXiv.org before the reviewing process is complete, because it will place anonymity at risk. Please refer to the ACM Publishing License Agreement and Authorship Policy for further details. Plagiarism. Plagiarized papers will not be accepted for RecSys 2020. Our committees will be checking the plagiarism level of all submitted papers to ensure content originality using an automated tool. Hence, authors are advised in their own interest to use a similar tool (e.g., iThenticate, Turnitin, Viper, PlagScan, etc.) to check the plagiarism level of their manuscripts before submission. The originality report generated by the tool may also be submitted at the time of paper submission. Papers violating any of the above guidelines are subject to rejection without review. SIGCHI SUBMITTER AGREEMENT RecSys 2020 is a SIGCHI conference and making a submission to a SIGCHI conference is a serious matter. Submissions require time and effort by SIGCHI volunteers to organize and manage the reviewing process, and, if the submission is accepted, the publication and presentation process. Thus, anyone who submits to RecSys 2020 implicitly confirms the following statements: 1. I confirm that this submission is the work of myself and my co-authors. 2. I confirm that I or my co-authors hold copyright to the content, and have obtained appropriate permissions for any portions of the content that are copyrighted by others. 3. I confirm that any research reported in this submission involving human subjects has gone through the appropriate approval process at my institution. 4. I confirm that if this paper is accepted, I or one of my co-authors will attend the conference.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] [CfP] ISWC 2019 - *One week left* to submit your abstracts for the Research, In-Use and Resource tracks Date: Thu, 7 May 2020 16:56:37 +0200 From: International Semantic Web Conference <iswc.conf(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: International Semantic Web Conference <iswc.conf(a)gmail.com> To: International Semantic Web Conference <iswc.conf(a)gmail.com> 19th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2020) The premier international forum for the Semantic Web and Linked Data Community https://iswc2020.semanticweb.org/ Follow us: Twitter: @iswc_conf , #iswc_conf ( https://twitter.com/iswc_conf ) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/13612370 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ISWConf/ *** All deadlines are AoE (anywhere on Earth) *** In this announcement: 1. Call for Research papers 2. Call for In-use papers 3. Call for Resource papers The International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) is the premier venue for presenting fundamental research, innovative technology, and applications concerning semantics, data, and the Web. It is the most important international venue to discuss and present latest advances and applications of the semantic Web, knowledge graphs, linked data, ontologies and artificial intelligence (AI) on the Web. Before submitting their work to one of the tracks, authors are asked to consult the calls of the other tracks featured at ISWC 2020 and to choose the track that best suits their contribution. The submission of the same work to multiple tracks is not allowed and may result in a rejection of the work across all tracks without a review. 1. Call for Research papers ******************************************* In this track of ISWC 2020, we are looking for novel and significant research contributions addressing theoretical, analytical and empirical aspects of the Semantic Web. While we welcome work that relates to the W3C Semantic Web recommendations (e.g., RDF, OWL, SPARQL, etc.), we also encourage contributions to research at the intersection of the Semantic Web and other scientific disciplines. Submissions to the research track should describe original, significant, and replicable research on the Semantic Web. All papers must include method evaluations that are rigorous, repeatable and reproducible. This will be one of the key reviewing criteria. We also strongly encourage papers that provide links to the data sets, source code and queries used to evaluate their approach, and/or live deployments. All papers will be assessed by the track program committee. Each paper will be reviewed by at least four committee members, including one senior member. After a successful first edition, the ISWC Reproducibility Initiative is running for the second time at ISWC2020. The Reproducibility Initiative is open to the accepted papers of the ISWC Research Track that have some significant experimental results that are amenable to be reproducible. Topics of interest and further info: https://iswc2020.semanticweb.org/calls/call-for-research-track-papers/ == Important Dates == Abstracts: May 15, 2020 [EXTENDED] Full papers: May 22, 2020 [EXTENDED] == Program Chairs == Contact: iswc2020-program(a)easychair.org Jeff Pan, University of Aberdeen, UK Valentina Tamma, University of Liverpool, UK 2. Call for In-use papers ******************************************* The adoption of Semantic Web technologies has accelerated in recent years, where they are now deployed in a variety of real-world settings at a variety of scales. The In-Use Track at ISWC 2020 continues the tradition of demonstrating and learning from the increasing adoption of Semantic Web technologies by providing a forum for the community to explore the benefits and challenges of applying such technologies in concrete, practical use cases, beyond the research communities from which they originate, in contexts ranging from industry to government and science. The track also aims at “giving a stage’’ to solutions for real world problems using Semantic Web technologies, where these are may be hidden, showing that in many cases of SW adoption, these play a crucial but not necessarily visible role, for more efficient, interoperable and easier to maintain solutions. The In-Use Track thus seeks submissions describing applied and validated solutions such as software tools, systems or architectures that benefit from the use of Semantic Web technologies (including, but not limited to, technologies based on the Semantic Web standards). Importantly, submitted papers should provide convincing evidence of the use of the proposed application or tool by the target user group, preferably outside the group that conducted the development and, more broadly, outside the Semantic Web research community. A main focus of the submissions should be on the benefits of Semantics Web technologies for the intended use case, as well as (if relevant) the added challenges they introduce. Topics of interest and further info: https://iswc2020.semanticweb.org/calls/call-for-in-use-track-papers/ == Important Dates == Abstracts: May 15, 2020 [EXTENDED] Full papers: May 22, 2020 [EXTENDED] == Program Chairs == Contact: iswc2020-in-use(a)easychair.org Bo Fu, California State University Long Beach, USA Axel Polleres, Vienna University of Economics and Business, Austria 3. Call for Resource papers ******************************************* Resources are of paramount importance as they foster scientific advancement. For example, the DBpedia had a major influence on the Semantic Web community by enabling the Linked (Open) Data movement. These resources include, among others, datasets, benchmarks, workflows, and software. Sharing them is key to allow other researchers to compare new results, reproduce experimental settings and explore new lines of research, in accordance with the FAIR principles for scientific data management. The ISWC 2020 Resources Track aims to promote the sharing of resources including, but not restricted to: datasets, ontologies/vocabularies, ontology design patterns, evaluation benchmarks or methods, software tools/services, APIs and software frameworks, workflows, crowdsourcing task designs, protocols, methodologies and metrics, that have contributed or may contribute to the generation of novel scientific work. In particular, we encourage the sharing of such resources following best and well-established practices within the Semantic Web community. As such, this track calls for contributions that provide a concise and clear description of a resource and its usage.

Fwd: [WI] ACM RecSys 2020 3rd Call for Papers and COVID Update
by Gustaf Neumann 06 May '20

06 May '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] ACM RecSys 2020 3rd Call for Papers and COVID Update Date: Wed, 06 May 2020 18:30:13 +0000 From: flaviovdf(a)dcc.ufmg.br Reply-To: flaviovdf(a)dcc.ufmg.br To: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Call for Papers ** IMPORTANT NOTE ** Due to concerns about COVID-19, RecSys 2020 will cancel its physical component and go fully virtual. To support authors through these stressful times, deadlines are extended. We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the 14th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys 2020), the premier venue for research and applications of recommendation technologies. The upcoming RecSys conference will be held online, from September 22nd to September 26th, 2020. The conference will continue RecSys' practice of connecting the research and practitioner communities to exchange ideas, frame problems, and share solutions. All accepted papers will be published by ACM. We invite submissions on all aspects of recommender systems, including applications ranging from e-commerce to social networking, and a wide variety of technologies ranging from collaborative filtering to knowledge-based reasoning or deep learning. We welcome new research on recommendation technologies coming from very diverse communities ranging from psychology to mathematics. In particular, we care as much about the human and economic impact of these systems as we care about their underlying algorithms. Topics of interest for RecSys 2020 include but are not limited to (alphabetically ordered): * Algorithm scalability, performance, and implementations * Bias, fairness, bubbles and ethics of recommender systems * Case studies of real-world implementations * Context-aware recommender systems * Conversational recommender systems (e.g., conversational interaction, spoken language interfaces, dialogue systems) * Cross-domain recommendation * Economic models and consequences of recommender systems * Evaluation metrics and studies * Explanations and evidence * Innovative/New applications * Interfaces for recommender systems * Novel machine learning approaches to recommendation algorithms * Preference elicitation * Privacy and security * Social recommenders * User modelling * User studies * Voice, VR, and other novel interaction paradigms Authors will be asked to assign a selection of predefined custom tags to describe their paper in the submission system. Tags can be assigned to indicate algorithms, interfaces, automated or user-centric evaluations, for example. Reviewers will also report their expertise over these tags, and the information will be used in review assignments. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submissions and reviews will be handled electronically. Papers must be submitted to PCS by 23:59, AoE (Anywhere on Earth) on June 1st, 2020. There will be no extensions to the submission deadline. Formatting. ACM is changing the archive format of its publications to separate content from presentation in the new Digital Library, enhance accessibility, and improve the flexibility and resiliency of our publications. Following the new ACM publication workflow, all authors should submit manuscripts for review in a single-column format. Instructions for Word and LaTeX authors are given below: * Microsoft Word: Write your paper using the Submission Template (Review Submission Format). Follow the embedded instructions to apply the paragraph styles to your various text elements. The text is in single-column format at this stage and no additional formatting is required at this point. * LaTeX: Please use the latest version of the Master Article Template - LaTeX to create your submission. You must use the "manuscript" option with the \documentclass[manuscript]{acmart} command to generate the output in a single-column format which is required for review. Please see the LaTeX documentation and ACM's LaTeX best practices guide for further instructions. To ensure 100% compatibility with The ACM Publishing System (TAPS), please restrict the use of packages to the whitelist of approved LaTeX packages. Authors are strongly encouraged to provide "alt text" (alternative text) for floats (images, tables, etc.) in their content so that readers with disabilities can be given descriptive information for these floats that are important to the work. The descriptive text will be displayed in place of a float if the float cannot be loaded. This benefits the author as well as it broadens the reader base for the author's work. Moreover, the alt text provides in-depth float descriptions to search engine crawlers, which helps to properly index these floats. Should you have any questions or issues going through the instructions above, please contact support at acmtexsupport(a)aptaracorp.com for both LaTeX and Microsoft Word inquiries. Accepted papers will be later submitted to ACM's new production platform where authors will be able to review PDF and HTML output formats before publication. Anonymity. The peer review process is double-blind (i.e. anonymized). This means that all submissions must not include information identifying the authors or their organization. Specifically, do not include the authors' names and affiliations, anonymize citations to your previous work and avoid providing any other information that would allow to identify the authors, such as acknowledgments and funding. However, it is acceptable to explicitly refer in the paper to the companies or organizations that provided datasets, hosted experiments or deployed solutions, if there is no implication that the authors are currently affiliated with the mentioned organization. Originality. Each paper should not be previously published or accepted to any peer-reviewed journal or conference/workshop, nor currently under review elsewhere (including as another paper submission for RecSys 2020). We generally discourage authors to submit the same paper to institutional or other preprint repositories such as arXiv.org before the reviewing process is complete, because it will place anonymity at risk. Please refer to the ACM Publishing License Agreement and Authorship Policy for further details. Plagiarism. Plagiarized papers will not be accepted for RecSys 2020. Our committees will be checking the plagiarism level of all submitted papers to ensure content originality using an automated tool. Hence, authors are advised in their own interest to use a similar tool (e.g., iThenticate, Turnitin, Viper, PlagScan, etc.) to check the plagiarism level of their manuscripts before submission. The originality report generated by the tool may also be submitted at the time of paper submission. Papers violating any of the above guidelines are subject to rejection without review. Patenting. Please take note that the official publication date 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. PAPER SUBMISSION CATEGORIES LONG PAPERS should report on substantial contributions of lasting value. The maximum length is 14 pages (excluding references) in the new single-column format. Each accepted long paper will be included in the conference proceedings and presented in a plenary session as part of the main conference program. Each accepted long paper will also be allocated a presentation slot in a poster session to encourage discussion and follow-up between authors and attendees. We expect the review process to be highly selective: the acceptance rate for full papers in the past few years was about 20%. SHORT PAPERS typically discuss exciting new work that is not yet mature enough for a long paper. In particular, novel but significant proposals will be considered for acceptance into this category despite not having gone through sufficient experimental validation or lacking strong theoretical foundation. Applications of recommender systems to novel areas are especially welcome. The maximum length is 7 pages (excluding references) in the new single-column format. Each accepted short paper will be included in the conference proceedings and presented in a poster session. The poster presentation may include a system demonstration. Selected short papers may be invited as oral presentations. Note that rejected long paper submissions will not be considered as short papers. SIGCHI SUBMITTER AGREEMENT RecSys 2020 is a SIGCHI conference and making a submission to a SIGCHI conference is a serious matter. Submissions require time and effort by SIGCHI volunteers to organize and manage the reviewing process, and, if the submission is accepted, the publication and presentation process. Thus, anyone who submits to RecSys 2020 implicitly confirms the following statements: 1. I confirm that this submission is the work of myself and my co-authors. 2. I confirm that I or my co-authors hold copyright to the content, and have obtained appropriate permissions for any portions of the content that are copyrighted by others. 3. I confirm that any research reported in this submission involving human subjects has gone through the appropriate approval process at my institution. 4. I confirm that if this paper is accepted, I or one of my co-authors will attend the conference. Papers that are not presented at the conference by an author may be removed from the proceedings at the discretion of the program chairs. IMPORTANT DATES * Abstract submission deadline: May 25th, 2020 * Paper submission deadline: June 1st, 2020 * Author notification: July 22nd, 2020 * Camera-ready version deadline: August 10th, 2020 Deadlines refer to 23:59 (11:59pm) in the AoE (Anywhere on Earth) time zone.
