HCIS 2020
HCIS 2020 (Formally known as IIMSS): 14th International Conference on Human-Centered Intelligent Systems | June 17-19, 2020 | Split, Croatia
http://hcis-20.kesinternational.org

Part of KES multi themed conference Smart Digital Futures which groups AMSTA-20, IDT-20, HCIS-20, InMed-20, SEEL-20 and STS-20 in one venue. http://sdf-20.kesinternational.org


Aim
Human-centered intelligent systems (HCIS) are information systems applying artificial intelligence in order to support humans and to interact with people. Contemporary advances in the field of artificial intelligence have led to a rapidly growing number of intelligent services and applications. Artificial intelligence is often characterized in an impersonal way: on this view, intelligent systems operate entirely independently of human intervention. Public discourse on ‘autonomous’ algorithms which work on ‘passively’ collected data contributes to this view. However, this perspective obfuscates the extent to which human work necessarily underpins and enables contemporary AI systems. The human element in intelligent systems includes tasks such as optimizing knowledge representations, developing algorithms, collecting and labeling data, and deciding what to model in the first place. Investigating artificial intelligence from a human-centered perspective requires a deep understanding of the role of human ethics, practices, and preferences for the development of—and interaction with—intelligent systems.

Submission Guidelines and Review Process

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished papers which are not under review for another conference, workshop, or journal by the time of submission. The contributors should address one or more research areas included above.

Detailed submission information is available on the conference page --here--

Submitted papers will undergo double-blind peer review by at least two members of the program committee. Prior to submission, please ensure that you have removed any information from your paper which could identify the authors. Paper acceptance is based on the following criteria: novelty, technical soundness, practical or theoretical impact, clarity, and presentation. At least one author per paper submission is required to register for the conference, and to present the paper.

Our Destination
SDF-20 will be held at the Radisson Blu Spa Resort, Split Croatia

Set against two stunning backdrops, the Adriatic Sea and the Dalmatian mountains, the Radisson Blu Resort, Split presents a never-ending feast of views with state-of-the-art meeting rooms.

As a regional business and cultural centre, Split provides ample opportunities beyond its beautiful setting. The Radisson Blu lies just 3 kilometres from the city centre, where guests can catch a ferry or tour Diocletian’s Palace.

We hope you will join us at this stunning destination....
