The 13th International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction (HAI 2025) aims to be a major interdisciplinary forum for discussing and disseminating the latest research and results that have an impact beyond the boundaries of conventional interaction, including robots, software agents, and human-to-human communication via digital media. HAI brings together researchers from fields such as engineering, computer science, psychology, and sociology, and covers a wide range of topics, including human-robot interaction, affective computing, computer-supported cooperative work, games and serious games, and artificial intelligence, among others. This conference is held in cooperation with ACM.
The theme of HAI 2025 is “Interaction and Imagination”. With the development of generative AI, many agent systems have been proposed, and the methodology of human-agent interaction is at the stage of being implemented in society. At this stage, we believe it is necessary to re-examine the new future of human society that human-agent interaction will bring, from interaction to imagination. We welcome all submissions related to HAI, but especially encourage submissions that align with the theme of HAI 2025. The HAI conference welcomes submissions from a wide range of fields, including engineering, computer science, psychology, sociology, cognitive science, business, marketing, and design.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- studies of Human-Agent Interaction, with quantitative/qualitative results
- theoretical models
- technological advances
- experimental methods
- impacts of embodiment
- character and avatar design
- agents in applications, e.g. self-driving cars, social networks
- agents in business and marking
- experience design
- autonomous and adaptive agents/systems
- multi-agent interaction
- social simulation

Submission Instructions
Format and Page Limit
HAI 2025 will accept only online submissions of PDF files (no MS Word, Latex, etc.). All submissions will be reviewed by three reviewers and will receive a meta review for quality assurance. The paper will be evaluated on the basis of research originality, excellence, and significance, and relevance to HAI. We also invite position papers, preliminary (but high impact) studies, and concept papers.
The page limit for full papers is 8 pages (+ extra pages for references only). Submissions exceeding eight pages of content, excluding references, will be subject to desk rejection and will not undergo review. Accepted full papers will be published in ACM’s International Conference Proceedings Series and presented during an oral session.
Templates
- LaTex Users: The LaTeX template can be downloaded from here (use \documentclass[sigconf,review,anonymous]{acmart} in the sample-sigconf.tex file for two-column paper submission): https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip
- Microsoft Word Users: The Word template can also be downloaded from here: https://authors.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/taps/acm_submission_template.docx
- Please note that the Microsoft Word template is a single column format, which is fine for the review submission. However, you need to follow the estimated word count under the “Estimating the Page Count” section – For more information on preparing your Microsoft Template please go here: https://authors.acm.org/proceedings/production-information/preparing-your-article-with-microsoft-word
Also, more on the templates can be found through the ACM Primary Article Template page: https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template

Anonymization
All submissions should be anonymized. Please remove all author information, including references to your own work and institutions. If references must be made, make them in the third person. If a person appears in an image who may be recognized as an author, please blur their face. If possible please list your paper number (assigned by the submission system) in your paper instead of your name.
HAI 2025 uses double-blind review, which means that the reviewers cannot identify the authors of the assigned papers, and the authors cannot identify the reviewers.
Review Process
The HAI 2025 review process involves the Program Chairs, first/second Associate Program Committee chairs (1AC, 2AC), and external reviewers. Each paper will have three reviews, two from external reviewers and one from the 2AC. The 1AC will then provide a meta-review assessment of the three reviews. Once all meta-reviews are entered, the Program Chairs will meet to discuss each paper’s overall score, and the reviews. The Program Chair make a final decision on each paper in coordination with the ACs.
Details
HAI 2025 does not allow duplicate submission. These papers will be automatically rejected without further review.
Authors may upload their papers to preprint repositories such as arXiv.org before submission. It will not result in rejection. However, the authors should anonymize their submission because HAI 2025 uses a double-blind review. We instruct reviewers not actively to find such preprint servers, but encountering them will not constitute a reason for rejection.
