From cl at cmu.edu Fri Mar 4 13:47:16 2022 From: cl at cmu.edu (Christian Lebiere) Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2022 13:47:16 -0500 Subject: [ACT-R-users] SocialSens 2022 Workshop Message-ID: 7th International Workshop on Social Sensing (SocialSens 2022) at ICWSM-2022 Special Edition on Belief Dynamics https://socialsens.web.illinois.edu/ The social sensing workshop (started in 2015) is a multidisciplinary meeting place that brings together social scientists, computer scientists, cognitive scientists, and other disciplines interested in social media analysis, around research that interprets social media as measurement instruments. The 7th installation of the workshop focuses on an important piece of the above puzzle: the modeling of belief dynamics and their relation to information operations. Historically, the intent of the social sensing workshop has been to combine scientists from computing, social, and cognitive domains around social media related topics. With belief dynamics as the topic in 2022, we invite papers and vision abstracts that approach it from different perspectives, from physical signal processing to social science and from control to cognitive modeling. The hope is that such a multidisciplinary intellectual exchange generates insights that draw on the best of multiple worlds: analysis of physical signals, information signals, and social and cognitive systems. The 7th international workshop on social sensing solicits contributions from academia, industry, and government on recent advances in both theoretical and experimental research in the above areas. We invite technical papers and position abstracts describing novel ideas, exciting results, and/or real?world experiences. Two types of submissions are solicited: 1. Full papers: Maximum length of 6 pages. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop and present the paper. Accepted papers will be broken into thematic sessions and presented in a panel discussion format. 2. Vision abstracts: This is a 2?page extended abstract that offers a future vision for a research direction in the field of social sensing. At least one author of each accepted abstract must register for the workshop and participate in a ?Future Visions? session. The session will include short position talks by authors of accepted abstracts, followed by discussion. IMPORTANT DATES Papers submission: March 27, 2022 Acceptance notification: April 10, 2022 Camera?ready paper due: April 17, 2022 ICWSM?2021 Workshops Day: June 6, 2022 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Summarizing recent works, I present general methods for the semantic interpretation of dynamic visuospatial imagery with an emphasis on the ability to perform abstraction, reasoning, and learning with cognitively rooted structured characterizations of commonsense knowledge pertaining to space and motion. I will particularly highlight: - explainable models of computational visuospatial commonsense at the interface of symbolic and neural techniques; - deep semantics, entailing systematically formalised declarative (neurosymbolic) reasoning and learning with aspects pertaining to space, space-time, motion, actions & events, spatio-linguistic conceptual knowledge; and - general foundational commonsense abstractions of space, time, and motion needed for representation mediated (grounded) reasoning and learning with dynamic visuospatial stimuli. The presented works ?demonstrated in the backdrop of applications in autonomous driving, cognitive robotics, visuoauditory media, and cognitive psychology? are intended to serve as a systematic model and general methodology integrating diverse, multi-faceted AI methods pertaining knowledge representation and reasoning, computer vision, and machine learning towards realising practical, human-centred, computational visual intelligence. I will conclude by highlighting a bottom-up interdisciplinary approach ?at the con?uence of cognition, AI, Interaction, and design science? necessary to better appreciate the complexity and spectrum of varied human-centred challenges for the design and (usable) implementation of (explainable) arti?cial visual intelligence solutions in diverse human-system interaction contexts. *Keywords*.

It is the charge to this community to build this new science, its theories, methods, and its scientific culture in a way that does not give priority to either social science or computer science, and to embrace change as the cornerstone of the community. Despite decades of work in this area, this scientific field is still in its infancy. To meet this charge and move this science to the next level, this community must meet the following three challenges: 1) deep understanding of socio?cognitive reasoning, 2) human?technology integration, 3) and re?usable computational methods. Example Topics: ? Social Network Modeling ? Social Cybersecurity ? Human Behavior Modeling ? Agent?Based Models ? Models of Human?Autonomy Interaction ? Health and Epidemiological Models ? Validation Methods and Human Experimentation BEST CONFERENCE PAPER AND BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARD All accepted and presented full papers will contest for Best Conference Paper Award. Accepted and presented full papers with a student as the first author will be considered for the Best Student Paper Award. Papers will be evaluated on technical merit, originality, and significance to social?cyber applications.

ACT-R, Nengo, PRIMs, Discriminative Learning, & Dynamical Systems Modelling ?(4 to 8 Apr 2022), with a great lineup of speakers. The Spring School will again cover four different modeling paradigms: ACT-R, Nengo, PRIMs, and Discriminative Learning. It thereby offers a unique opportunity to learn the relative strengths and weaknesses of these approaches. Moreover, this year we are offering a lecture series on dynamical systems modelling, which should be interesting for anyone looking into modeling cognitive dynamics at some or other level of abstraction. We recommend this lecture series as an excellent combination with Nengo, for those interested in neuromorphic computing. The first day will provide an introduction to all five topics. From day two, spring school students will be asked to commit to one topic, for which they will attend lectures as well as hands-on tutorials to get practical experience at working with the paradigm. In addition, students can sign up for a second topic, for which they will attend lectures only. All students are invited to join a series of plenary research talks on the different paradigms. Pre-registration is now open. Please feel free to forward the information to anyone who might be interested in the Spring School. We are looking forward to welcoming you in Groningen, The Spring School team PS: Please note that, due to its interactive character, the spring school will be held as an offline-only event. We will not offer the option for hybrid or online teaching. In case the spring school needs to be cancelled at the last minute, participants will receive a full reimbursement.

You can find a brief description below. For the details, please follow the link at the end. Any inquiries can be directed at me. The R&D group at Fraunhofer AICOS holds three departments: Human-Centred Design, Intelligent Systems and Connected Things. The Human-Centred Design department is composed of a multidisciplinary team with backgrounds in design (graphic, interaction, industrial, service), human-computer interaction, health sciences and mechanical engineering. Together with the other departments, this team works in projects for industry clients as well as in publicly funded research. Within these projects, we are versed in user research, co-design and technology assessment, which we mostly apply to the fields of healthcare and manufacturing. We are looking for an experienced professional who can contribute to our research projects with their knowledge and experience in interaction design, namely in the design of user interfaces and related user experience. This new colleague will manage research projects through a human-centred design lens, contribute to finding new research opportunities, and they will be actively involved in the design and research activities within projects in healthcare and in manufacturing settings. While working in AICOS? research projects, this person will be interacting with different partners ? from academic researchers to industry clients, from shopfloor operators to chronic patients. It?s a good opportunity for someone who likes the design and research work, but also to have a say in how research projects should be designed and oriented. It?s also a good opportunity to be able to publish research findings, as well as to translate them through rich materials to non-designers and non-researchers. **************************************************************** 19) Postdoctoral Research Associate Dept of CS, Durham, UK, due end Jan early Feb Grade 7: - ?34,304 to ?40,927 per annum Fixed Term - Full Time Contract Duration: 30 months Contracted Hours per Week: 35 Closing Date: 24 Jan 2022, 11:59:00 PM Job Description - ACADEMIC - Postdoctoral Research Associate (21001319) (taleo.net) https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdurham.taleo.net%2Fcareersection%2Fdu_ext%2Fjobdetail.ftl%3Fjob%3D21001319%26tz%3DGMT%252B00%253A00%26tzname%3DEurope%252FLondon&data=04%7C01%7Ciccm-l%40lists.psu.edu%7Cc719786e960846fed81808da05e68d24%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C637828785010298309%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=yuhkZLYu5Ee7wjsBVUUWdpCHm40qaN9J0wdjy3D4AxM%3D&reserved=0 Working Arrangements This role is full time but we will consider requests for flexible working arrangements including potential job shares Durham U ================ The University sits in a beautiful historic city where it shares ownership of a UNESCO World Heritage Site with Durham Cathedral, the greatest Romanesque building in Western Europe.

The work will be very interdisciplinary so interests in e.g. the social sciences, AI ethics, STS and psychology would be?appreciated.??Find the official advert here: https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fuu.se%2Fen%2Fabout-uu%2Fjoin-us%2Fdetails%2F%3FpositionId%3D467899&data=04%7C01%7Ciccm-l%40lists.psu.edu%7Cc719786e960846fed81808da05e68d24%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C637828785010298309%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=j4CQ%2FXt%2FUnENr4%2BXQQEH%2Fc%2FtflP3vYg5gi9zJA0pdNg%3D&reserved=0 The PhD project will be supervised by myself,?Katie Winkle (main supervisor) and Ginevra Castellano.

It is the charge to this community to build this new science, its theories, methods, and its scientific culture in a way that does not give priority to either social science or CS, and to embrace change as the cornerstone of the community. Despite decades of work in this area, this scientific field is still in its infancy. To meet this charge and move this science to the next level, this community must meet the following three challenges: ??1) deep understanding of socio-cognitive reasoning, 2) human-technology integration, 3) and re-usable computational methods. Topics include but are not limited to the following: ?? ? ? Social Cybersecurity ?? ? ? Social Network Modeling ?? ? ? Human Behavior Modeling ?? ? ? Agent-Based Models ?? ? ? Models of Human-Autonomy Interaction ?? ? ? Health and Epidemiological Models ?? ? ? Validation Methods and Human Experimentation All papers are qualified for the Best Paper Award. Papers with student first authors will be considered for the Best Student Paper Award.

Due to recent geopolitical developments, we have had to modify our previous plan to center the F2F portion of the June AGI-22 event in St. Petersburg, Russia. While we support global peaceful research collaboration independently of political and military issues, the current situation with Russia renders it infeasible to proceed with our previous plan of a hybrid St. Petersburg / virtual event. Insteadwe are excited to announce that the physical portion of the hybrid F2F/virtual AGI-22 event will now be inSeattle, Washington (USA). In order to give participants time to adjust their plans to account for the new location, the date will also be delayed until 19-22 Aug. We have adjusted all submission deadlines to align with the new conference dates. All papers should be submitted via EasyChairat this link https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Feasychair.org%2Faccount%2Fsignin&data=04%7C01%7Ciccm-l%40lists.psu.edu%7C4fd4d524b38b4fe4d47f08da10d33f53%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C637840796738958768%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=6BDnNBfybO6OYOegF0vUr6Ls%2Bfc7lYAZ9n%2BII4yuPI4%3D&reserved=0 by 30 Apr22.Detailed submission information is available here https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fagi-conf.org%2F2022%2Fcall-for-papers%2F%3Fmc_cid%3D4aab1e9f8c%26mc_eid%3D4e738a25b0&data=04%7C01%7Ciccm-l%40lists.psu.edu%7C4fd4d524b38b4fe4d47f08da10d33f53%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C637840796738958768%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=kZ6Dw1pf2K9lZZUfq1nQAVQb6QPmBWx1UeTEWYeROCU%3D&reserved=0. As was the case last year, some keynotes will be F2Fand some will be virtual. Authors with accepted contributed papers will have the option to present their papers in Seattle, or virtually. Based upon feedback from our initial hybrid conference last year, we will allot equal time for all contributed papers, whether presented virtually or in-person. The current situation as regards Russia and Ukraine is profoundly disturbing and regrettable and we at the AGI Society stand with the people of Ukraine, and will do our best to foster and support AGI-22 participation from Ukrainian AGI researchers and developers insofar as circumstances allow. We believe that it is very important to keep fundamental science moving forward in a globally connected way, even through difficult and trying times. We look forward to hosting an AGI conference in St. Petersburg in the further future when the geopolitical situation has been resolved in a more positive way. My colleagues at the AGI Society and I are hard at work aligning an amazing program of keynotes, workshops and tutorials that will complement the contributed talks to make this year?s AGI conference yet another incredible event. Expect more updates on the particulars of AGI-22 conference content soon.

The 7th installation of the workshop focuses on an important piece of the above puzzle: the modeling of belief dynamics and their relation to information operations. Historically, the intent of the social sensing workshop has been to combine scientists from computing, social, and cognitive domains around social media related topics. With belief dynamics as the topic in 2022, we invite papers and vision abstracts that approach it from different perspectives, from physical signal processing to social science and from control to cognitive modeling. The hope is that such a multidisciplinary intellectual exchange generates insights that draw on the best of multiple worlds: analysis of physical signals, information signals, and social and cognitive systems. The 7th international workshop on social sensing solicits contributions from academia, industry, and government on recent advances in both theoretical and experimental research in the above areas. We invite technical papers and position abstracts describing novel ideas, exciting results, and/or real?world experiences. Two types of submissions are solicited: 1. Full papers: Maximum length of 6 pages. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop and present the paper. Accepted papers will be broken into thematic sessions and presented in a panel discussion format. 2. Vision abstracts: This is a 2?page extended abstract that offers a future vision for a research direction in the field of social sensing. At least one author of each accepted abstract must register for the workshop and participate in a ?Future Visions? session. The session will include short position talks by authors of accepted abstracts, followed by discussion. IMPORTANT DATES ? Papers submission: 27 Mar22 ? Acceptance notification: 10 Apr22 ?

This year, we are planning to revitalize activity on the Common Model by starting a biannual workshop series, initially fully virtual, on specific topics related to the Common Model. Each meeting will focus on a single topic over two days, including a few invited talks but with an emphasis on discussions in working groups, with the goal of making scientific progress during the meetings. The meetings will be open to all, with the provision that each potential participant must provide a one-page abstract on the topic. The abstracts will help us cluster participants in working groups and demonstrate a minimal level of commitment to the workshop. Our initial topic will be Emotion (detailed description attached), possibly in May or June of this year. At this time, we want to gauge interest in the series in general, as well as the proposed first meeting.

Consequently, these devices suffer from a problem of discoverability of interactions?available to the user. How is one supposed to know that they can interact with a component of the interface that is hidden by default, or by using a gesture that is not?indicated by the system?This PhdThesis will focus on this problem of discoverabilityof ''hidden''interactions. More precisely, the aim is to understand how people?discover hidden interactions in interactive systems, and to model the discovery of these interactions in order to provide design and evaluation support.
