AIIS 2020 is SIGIR 2020 Workshop on Applied Interactive Information Systems. (https://aiis.newidea.fun)

Introduction

Nowadays, intelligent information systems, especially the interactive information systems (conversational interaction systems; news feed recommender systems, and interactive search engines, etc.), are ubiquitous in real-world applications. These systems either converse with users explicitly through natural languages, or mine users interests and respond to users requests implicitly. Interactivity has become a crucial element towards intelligent information systems. Despite the fact that interactive information systems have gained significant progress, there are still many challenges to be addressed when applying these models to real-world scenarios. This half day workshop explores challenges and potential research, development, and application directions in applied interactive information systems. We aim to discuss the issues of applying interactive information models to production systems, as well as to shed some light on the fundamental characteristics, i.e., interactivity and applicability, of different interactive tasks. We welcome practical, theoretical, experimental, and methodological studies that advances the interactivity towards intelligent information systems. The workshop aims to bring together a diverse set of practitioners and researchers interested in investigating the interaction between human and information systems to develop more intelligent information systems.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and can be simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.  Accepted papers will be regarded as preprint versions. Long and short papers are all welcome. 

Papers will appear in the workshop proceedings, which will be publicly available online for no charge. Accepted papers will have a presentation (oral and/or poster) at the workshop. Papers must be submitted in PDF according to the new two-column ACM format published in the ACM guidelines, selecting the generic "sigconf" sample. Long and short papers should accord with the SigIR 2020 formate guidelines (Long, Short).  AIIS 2020 submissions are double-blind. All submissions and reviews will be handled electronically. Papers must be submitted to easychair aby 23:59, AoE (Anywhere on Earth) on May 20^th, 2020. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, AIIS 2020 is expected to take place on-line.
