Workshop/Tutorial Submissions

Workshops/Tutorials Submission Guidelines

We invite proposals for workshops and tutorials to be held at the HAI 2020 Conference in Sydney, Australia, 10-13 November 2020. The workshop and tutorial sessions aim to provide an opportunity to discuss current and emergent topics on Human-Agent Interaction. The HAI conference seeks relevent proposals from a broad range of disciplines such as engineering, computer science, psychology, sociology, cognitive science, business, advertising/marketing and design. Topics of workshops/tutorials include, but are not limited to:

  • studies of Human-Agent Interaction; with a quantitative/qualitative approach; across a wide variety of application areas
  • technological advances;
  • experimental methods;
  • impacts of embodiment;
  • character and avatar design;
  • agents in social networks;
  • specific application for agents in retail, business and marketing and
  • experience design

We welcome both full and half day workshops and tutorials that bridge the gap between theoretical advances and innovative applications of Human-Agent Interaction.

Please note: Tutorials are conceptually different to workshops. Tutorials are given by expert instructors, typically with established reputations, teaching people new to a topic. Workshops are meetings of experts exploring new knowledge.

Submission Guidelines and Format:

Workshop and tutorial proposals will be reviewed by the track chairs and will be assessed based on their relevance, quality, and interests to the community. Each proposals should outline the following in their proposals:
