The Academic Fringe Festival (TAFF)
First edition on *Crowd Computing & Human-Centered AI*
--- Apologies for cross-posting —
Website: https://www.academicfringe.org/
* The Academic Fringe Festival is free of cost and open to everyone who is interested to participate. Let there be light! *
ABOUT TAFF:
============================
The Academic Fringe Festival is an exciting concoction of invited talks and panel discussions around important themes of research and innovation in Computer …
[View More]Science. The series features prominent researchers and practitioners, whose work has made fundamental contributions in these fields.
Calling this collection of academic events "The Academic Fringe Festival" is an ode to the story of the eight theatre companies which turned up uninvited at the Edinburgh International Festival in 1947 and performed on the fringe of the event. Over the years, such acts gained popularity and gradually snowballed into what is now the world's largest arts festival, the "Edinburgh Fringe Festival". Our aim is not to create the world's largest academic festival, but to create a forum for open, accessible, and inspiring dissemination of knowledge from renowned scientists across the globe.
This first edition is on "Crowd Computing and Human-Centered AI". The unprecedented rise in the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques in many contexts is concomitant with shortcomings of such technology with respect to robustness, interpretability, usability, and trustworthiness. Crowd computing offers a viable means to engage a large number of human participants in data-related tasks and in user studies. In the context of overcoming the computational and interactional challenges facing the current generation of AI systems, recent work has shown how crowd computing can be leveraged to either debug noisy training data in machine learning systems, understand which machine learning models are more congruent to human understanding in particular tasks, or to advance our understanding of how AI systems can influence human behavior.

Workshop Description:
This workshop will be part of the ACM Intelligent User Interfaces 2021
Conference (http://iui.acm.org/2021/). The workshop focuses on …
[View More]systems
that personalize, summarize and visualize the data for supporting
interactive information seeking and information discovery, along with
tools that enable user modeling and methods for incorporating the user
needs and preferences into both analytics and visualization. Our aim is to
bring together researchers and practitioners working on different
personalization aspects and applications of exploratory search and
interactive data analytics. This will allow us to achieve four goals: (1)
propose new strategies for systems that need to convey the rationale
behind their decisions or inference, and the sequence of steps that lead
to specific (search) results; (2) develop new user modeling and
personalization techniques for exploratory search and interactive data
analytics; (3) develop a common set of design principles for this type of
systems across platforms, contexts, users and applications; (4) develop a
set of evaluation metrics for personalization in exploratory search. The
workshop aims to solicit submissions in the following areas of
personalized interactive data analytics and exploratory search:
Personalized interactive exploration via interactive data analytics:
– personalization aspects in systems for exploratory search.
– cross-domain/ context-aware/ cross-platform exploratory search systems.
– interactively modelling the user’s information needs for high-recall
information retrieval.
– new applications of exploratory search and interactive data analytics.
Data analytics:
– interactive interfaces for data-intensive platforms.
– interaction degrees of freedom.
– preprocessing vs. online processing.
– interactive data visualization evaluation of interactive systems for
exploratory search and data analytics.
Metrics for explainable intelligent systems:
– metrics for explainable exploratory search.
– explainability and transparency in expert vs. non-expert systems.
– human-in-the-loop analytics systems.
