FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS
AIIA19 - The 18th International Conference of the Italian
Association for Artificial Intelligence
UNICAL, Rende (CS), 19-22 November 2019
**************************************************************************************************************************************************************
AIIA is the premier venue for presenting innovative systems and
research results related to Artificial Intelligence, attracting a
large number of high quality submissions every year and
participants from both industry and academia. AI*IA brings
together researchers from different areas, such as artificial
intelligence, databases, natural language processing, information
systems, human computer interaction, information retrieval, web
science, etc., who investigate, develop and use novel methods and
technologies concerning the Artificial Intelligence research
field.
In addition to the regular research and workshop program, AIIA
2019 will include a tutorial program addressing the diverse
interests of its audience: Artificial Intelligence practitioners
that wish to learn about new technologies, novices to Artificial
Intelligence interested in introductory tutorials to key topics,
government and industry representatives focusing on the
applicability of Artificial Intelligence technologies in practical
settings. This program will follow the successful experiment
started during AIIA 2018.
We invite you to submit a tutorial proposal on a research topic
relevant to the AIIA 2019 audience. Each tutorial will be a
half-day event of about 3.5 hours.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Review Criteria
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The decision on acceptance or rejection of tutorial proposals will
be made on the basis of the overall quality of the proposal and
its appeal to a reasonable fraction of the Artificial Intelligence
community.
In particular, tutorials should satisfy each of the following
criteria:
- the research topic falls in the general scope of the conference.
- there is a clear focus on a specific technology, problem or
application.
- there is a sufficiently large community interested in the topic.
We expect proposals for the following types of tutorials:
- Tutorials providing an introduction to well established
Artificial Intelligence aspects.
- Tutorials describing the cross link between Artificial
Intelligence technologies and other disciplines and application
domains.
- Tutorials presenting specific Artificial Intelligence
technologies and trends.
Additionally, we expect tutorials to have practical parts in terms
of examples or, preferably, exercises and hands-on sessions to be
carried out by the participants.

Submission Guidelines
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposals should be submitted via Easychair at

other similar tutorials presented at other events? (One to three
paragraphs)
- Detailed Description: Length (expected number of hours),
overview of content and schedule, description of learning
outcomes, presentation style, tutorial format, justification of
length if longer than 3.5 hours (why a shorter time would not
suffice), prior knowledge required by the attendees (No longer
than two pages)
- Tutorial Material: Overview of the material used for the
tutorial. In case of slides, handouts or other teaching material
please specify when the material will be made available and how
(e.g, under a CC license to anyone, only to the attendees, not at
all, and so on) (One to three paragraphs).
- Audience: Who and how many people are likely to attend? (One

tutorial presentation. Please indicate which presenter is the
primary contact. (One to two paragraphs per presenter)
- Related events (if the tutorial was presented before in a
similar form): Link to previous event(s) and materials. The number
of attendees of the previous event(s). Why is it relevant to
continue the tutorial in 2019?
- Requirements: Audio-visual or technical requirements and any
special room requirements (One to two paragraphs).
