The Mediated Conversation minitrack focuses on the study of conversations taking place on digital and social media. Conversations are at the core of human communication. Mediated conversations can use text, audio, images or video, or any combination thereof. The minitrack welcomes research on conversations that are interpersonal, as well as those that occur in organizational or mass communication, educational or political contexts, and in any other sphere of human activity, including the emerging interplay of human-machine communication.… read more. “Call: Mediated Conversation minitrack of Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-53)”

Social Emotions – Theories and Models (SE-THEMOS19)
Tues September 3rd, 2019
Cambridge, UK
http://www.macs.hw.ac.uk/~ruth/se-themo19.html

A workshop at Affective Computing and Intelligent Interfaces ACII2019 (http://acii-conf.org/2019/)

Submission deadline: May 31st, 2019

Social agents with both graphical and robotic embodiments are being researched on an increasing scale, with applications in public interaction, education, health and therapeutic areas. This raises quite sharply both a requirement for the detection of social emotions – whether emotion that is socially and culturally regulated or emotion in group settings – and the modelling and expressing of such emotions on the social agent side.

The aim of the workshop is to bring theorists and modellers together to the benefit of both.

Topics could include:

• Papers on theoretical work on social emotions, including social appraisal and affective aspects of group interaction.
• Papers arguing the behavioural ecological view that facial expressions are not related to affective state but are entirely social signals produced by an evolutionary process.

Philosophy & Technology special issue on Artificial Intelligence for Social Good

Guest Editor:
Josh Cowls (Alan Turing Institute & University of Oxford)

Deadline for paper submissions: October 1, 2019

Abstract

We seek submissions of roughly 8,000 words in length, on the ethical, political, design-related, policy-based or cultural considerations surrounding AI4SG in theory and practice. While the motivating questions should be of a philosophical nature, we welcome high-quality submissions regardless of philosophical tradition, research methodology, school of thought, and disciplinary background. Given the diverse contexts in which AI is already being deployed, we particularly encourage submissions from perspectives traditionally underrepresented in related academic and policy debates.

GAMIFICATION at HICSS 2020

Part of the “Decision Analytics, Mobile Services, and Service Science” track
53rd annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS 2020)
7-10 January 2020
Grand Wailea, Maui

Submission deadline: June 15, 2019

Interaction with games is considered to have positive effects on our cognitive, emotional, social abilities and motivation (5, 9, 10, 13, 15, 22, 30). It isn’t surprising, then that our reality and lives are increasingly becoming game-like (6). This is not limited to the fact that digital games have become a pervasive part of our lives, but perhaps most prominently with the fact that activities, systems and services that are not traditionally perceived as game-like are becoming either intentionally or unintentionally gameful (4, 6, 10, 13, 14).

Intentional gamification refers to a “process of transforming any activity, system, service, product or organizational structure into one which affords positive experiences, skills and practices similar to those afforded by games, and is often referred to as the gameful experience.… read more. “Call: ‘Gamification’ at 53rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS)”
