[agents] (SCRITA Workshop @ RO-MAN 2022) Trust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot Interaction - SCRITA Workshop

[Alessandra Rossi]

Dear colleagues,

This is a gentle reminder that the paper submission for the fifth
edition of SCRITA Workshop <scrita.herts.ac.uk> at IEEE RO-MAN 2022 are
open!

This workshop will be a full day event on 29 August 2022, in conjunction
with the IEEE RO-MAN 2022 <http://www.smile.unina.it/ro-man2022/>
conference, held in sunny and beautiful Naples, Italy.

The workshop is open to a broad audience from academia and industry
researching social robotics, machine learning, robot behavioural
control, and user recommendation. We will foster the exchange of
insights on past and ongoing research, and contribute to the discussion
of innovative ideas for tackling unresolved issues by providing new and
inspirational directions of research with brilliant invited speakers and
a panel of experts in the field.

Please find attached below the call for papers.

For any questions and information, do not hesitate to contact us (emails
below).

Kind regards,
Alessandra

        31st IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive
        Communication (RO-MAN 2022)

August 29th - September 2nd, 2022

Naples, Italy

*Important Dates*

*Submission deadline*: 15 July 2022

*Acceptance*: 31 July 2022


People's ability of accepting and trusting robots is fundamental for a
fruitful and successful coexistence between humans and people. While
advanced progresses are reached in studying and evaluating the factors
affecting acceptance and trust of people in robots in controlled or
short-term (repeated interactions) setting, developing service and
personal robots, that are accepted and trusted by people where the
supervision of operators is not possible, still presents an open
challenge for scientists in robotics, AI and HRI fields. In such
unstructured static and dynamic human-centred environments scenarios,
robots should be able to learn and adapt their behaviours to the
situational context, but also to people’s prior experiences and learned
associations, their expectations, and their and the robot’s ability to
predict and understand each other's behaviours. This workshop focuses on
addressing the challenges and development of the dynamics between people
and robots in order to foster short interactions and long-lasting
relationships in different fields, from educational, service,
collaborative, companion, care-home and medical robotics. Although the
previous editions valued the participation of leading researchers in the
field and several exceptional invited speakers who tackled down some
fundamental points in this research domains, we wish to continue to
further explore the role of trust in robotics to present groundbreaking
research to effectively design and develop socially acceptable and
trustable robots to be deployed "in the wild".

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  * Impact of Social Cues on Trust in HRI
  * Measuring Trust in HRI
  * Trust Violation and Recovery Mechanism in HRI
  * Effects of Humans’ Acceptance on Trust of Robots
  * Humans Sense of Control and Trust in Robots
  * Trust and Assistive Robotics
  * Overtrust in Robots
  * Antecedent of Trust and Robot Trust
  * Enhancing Humans Trust in Robots
  * Enhancing Trust in a Robot Companion
  * Privacy Implications on Trust in HRI
  * Mental Models and Trust in HRI
  * Trust and Safety in HRI
  * Ethics Implications on Trust in HRI
  * Trustworthy AI
  * XAI in HRI
  * Legal Frameworks for Trustworthy Robotics


    Templates and Submission Procedure

We encourage participants to submit two-page abstracts or full papers
(up to 6 pages) on original and unpublished research. We will also
welcome submissions of two-page position papers on topics covering the
scope of the workshop. All accepted papers will have an oral presentations.

We further welcome authors of the accepted papers to present a video or
demonstrate their works and achievements. Video demonstrations should be
accompanied by an up to 2 pages abstract describing the work and
achievements.

Authors should submit their papers formatted according to the IEEE
two-column format
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php>, which is
also used for contributions to the main conference. Use the following
templates to create the paper and generate or export a PDF file: LaTeX
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/tex.php> or MS-Word
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/word.php>.

PDF submission will be possible via EasyChair
<https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=scrita2022>. Each paper will
receive at least two reviews. All papers are reviewed using a
single-blind review process: authors declare their names and
affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to see, but reviewers
do not know each other's identities, nor do the authors receive
information about who has reviewed their manuscript.

Authors who want to include a video in their submission can indicate
their plans via EasyChair and will be sent a link to a confidentially
upload the video file. At least one of the authors of the accepted
papers needs to register for the workshop.
