Call For Papers

The 10th International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction (HAI 2022)

December 5-8, Christchurch, New Zealand

https://hai-conference.net/hai2022/

The Tenth International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction (HAI 2022) 
aims to be the premier interdisciplinary venue for discussing and 
disseminating state-of-the-art research and results that have 
implications across conventional interaction boundaries including 
robots, software agents and digitally-mediated human-human 
communication. HAI will gather researchers from fields spanning 
engineering, computer science, psychology and sociology, and will cover 
diverse topics, including: human-robot interaction, affective computing, 
computer-supported collaborative work, gaming and serious games, 
artificial intelligence, and more. The conference is in cooperation with 
ACM.

The theme for the HAI2022 conference will be “Real-Virtuality: Merging 
the Physical and Digital worlds”. Indeed, during the past two years a 
lot of the interactions moved online; this year, hybrid interactions are 
becoming possible. This regain of the virtual world combined with 
advances in robotics and embodied intelligence offers new opportunities 
for researchers to explore the connections between the physical and 
digital realm. Agents, avatars and robots that can mediate and extend 
the human’s capabilities allowing a seamless continuum between metaverse 
and real world. While all submissions related to HAI are welcome, you 
are especially encouraged to submit papers in line with the theme for 
HAI 2022. The HAI conference seeks contributions from a broad range of 
disciplines such as engineering, computer science, psychology, 
sociology, cognitive science, business, marketing and design. We hope to 
be a venue to connect these diverse areas, even though the conference 
will be online.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

     studies of Human-Agent Interaction, with quantitative/qualitative 
results;
     theoretical models;
     technological advances;
     experimental methods;
     impacts of embodiment;
     character and avatar design; and
     agents in applications, e.g. self-driving cars, social networks.
     agents in business and marking
     experience design
     Autonomous and adaptive agents/systems

Important Dates:

Full paper submissions:    EXTENDED TO June 30, 2022, 11:59 AOE



Submission Instruction:

Format

HAI 2022 will accept only online submissions of PDF files (no MS Word, 
Latex, etc.). All submissions will be reviewed by three reviewers and 
will receive a meta review for quality assurance. The paper will be 
evaluated on the basis of research originality, excellence, and 
significance, and relevance to HAI. We also invite position papers, 
preliminary (but high impact) studies, and concept papers.

All papers need to be in the ACM SIGCHI format, double colums. Please 
visit the submission page at the HAI 2022 Web site to prepare and submit 
your papers. All accepted papers will be archived in the ACM Digital 
Library.

The page limit for full papers is 8 pages (+ extra pages for references 
only).

For LaTex: Use the latest ACM LaTeX Template files from ACM Templates 
Site and use the "sigconf" (ACM Default 2 column template: 
\documentclass[sigconf]{acmart} )
For Word: Download the sample/template word document(s) from ACM 
Templates Site.

Anonymization

All submissions should be anonymized. Please remove all author 
information, including references to your own work and institutions. If 
references must be made, make them in the third person. If a person 
appears in an image who may be recognized as an author, please blur 
their face. If possible, please list your paper number (assigned by the 
submission system) in your paper instead of your name.

HAI2022 uses double-blind review, which means that the reviewers cannot 
identify the authors of the assigned papers, and the authors cannot 
identify the reviewers.

Details

HAI2022 does not allow duplicate submission. These papers will be 
automatically rejected without further review.

Authors may upload their papers to preprint repositories such as 
arXiv.org before submission. It will not result in rejection. However, 
the authors should anonymize their submission because HAI2022 uses a 
double-blind review. We instruct reviewers not actively to find such 
preprint servers, but encountering them will not constitute a reason for 
rejection.
