OVERVIEW
The 7th AAAI Conference on Human Computation and Crowdsourcing
(HCOMP 2019) will be held Oct 28–30 at Skamania Lodge in
Washington State near the Columbia Gorge River, just 45 minutes
from Portland, Oregon. This year is the 10-year anniversary of the
very first HCOMP workshop in Paris, and to celebrate, there will
be special events, talks, and panels throughout the conference.
HCOMP is the premier venue for disseminating the latest research
findings on human computation and crowdsourcing. While artificial
intelligence (AI) and human-computer interaction (HCI) represent
traditional mainstays of the conference, HCOMP believes strongly
in inviting, fostering, and promoting broad, interdisciplinary
research. The field is particularly unique in the diversity of
disciplines it draws upon and contributes to, ranging from
human-centered qualitative studies and HCI design, to computer
science and artificial intelligence, to economics and the social
sciences, all the way to digital humanities, policy, and ethics.
We promote the exchange of advances in human computation and
crowdsourcing not only among researchers, but also engineers and
practitioners, to encourage dialogue across disciplines and
communities of practice. Submissions may present principles,
studies, and/or applications of systems that rely on programmatic
interaction with individual people or crowds, or where human
perception, knowledge, reasoning, or physical activity and
coordination contributes to the operation of computational
systems, applications, or services.
This year, we especially encourage work that generate new insights
into the “human computation” side of HCOMP, such as new
understandings about human cognition, human-in-the-loop
intelligence systems, human-AI interaction and collaboration,
algorithmic and interface techniques for augmenting human
abilities to perform tasks, and other issues that affect how
humans collaborate with AI systems (such as bias, fairness, and
interpretability).
Topics of interest include:
- Crowdsourcing applications and techniques, including but not
limited to: citizen science, collective action, collective
knowledge, crowdsourcing contests, crowd creativity, crowd
funding, crowd ideation, crowd sensing, crowdsourcing in computer
vision, crowdsourcing in health, disaster response and relief,
fact verification, gaming and gamification, incentives in
crowdsourcing, knowledge bases, microtasks, prediction markets,
wisdom of crowds
- Techniques that enable and enhance human-in-the-loop systems,
making them more efficient, accurate, and human-friendly
- Studies that inform our understanding about the future of work,
distributed work, the freelancer economy, and open innovation
- User studies about how people perform tasks individually, in
groups, or as a crowd, including those drawing on techniques from
human-computer interaction, social computing, computer-supported
cooperative work, design, cognitive and behavioral sciences
(psychology and sociology), economics, etc.
- Topics at the intersection of HCI and AI, including human-AI
interaction, human-AI collaboration, AI interpretability,
explainable AI, etc.
- Fairness, accountability, transparency, ethics, and policy
implications for crowdsourcing and human computation
CALL FOR FULL PAPERS
Authors are invited to submit papers of up to 8 pages, plus any
number of additional pages containing references only. Please see
"Publication" below for number of allowed pages in the final
proceedings.
All submitted papers must represent original work, not previously
published or under simultaneous peer-review for any other
peer-reviewed, archival conference or journal.
Papers must be formatted in AAAI two-column, camera-ready style;
please refer to the AAAI 2019 Author Kit
(
http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Templates/AuthorKit19.zip) for
details. Papers must be in trouble-free, high-resolution PDF
format, formatted for US Letter (8.5″ x 11″) paper, using Type 1
or TrueType fonts. The AAAI copyright block is not required on
submissions, but must be included on final accepted versions.
Electronic abstract and paper submission through the HCOMP-19
EasyChair paper submission site (available March 29, 2019) is
required on or before the deadlines listed above. We cannot accept
submissions by e-mail or fax. Authors will receive confirmation of
receipt of their abstracts or papers, including an ID number,
shortly after submission. HCOMP will contact authors again only if
problems are encountered with papers. Inquiries regarding paper
receipt must be made no later than June 12, 2019.
All papers must be anonymized (include no information identifying
the authors or their institutions) for double-blind peer-review.
Authors are invited, but not required, to include supplemental
materials such as executables and data files so that reviewers can
reproduce results in the paper, images, additional videos, related
papers, more detailed explanations, derivations, or results. These
materials will be viewed only at the discretion of the reviewers,
who are only obligated to read your paper itself.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the
conference to present the work or acceptance will be withdrawn.
PUBLICATION
Accepted full papers will be allocated eight (8) pages in the
conference proceedings; up to two (2) additional pages may be used
at a cost to the authors of $275 per page. Final papers found to
exceed page limits and or otherwise violating the instructions to
authors will not be included in the proceedings. Authors will be
required to transfer copyright of their paper to AAAI. Accepted
full papers will be published in the HCOMP conference proceedings
and included in the AAAI Digital Library.
