[agents] [meetings][CFP][RO-MAN 2024] Extended deadline for Trust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot Interaction Workshop

[Alessandra Rossi]

Dear colleagues,

We would like to inform you that we extended the deadline for
submission at SCRITA
workshop.

This workshop focuses on the continuous investigation of unresolved and new
open challenges of the factors affecting people's acceptance and trust in
robots in short- and long-term settings.

We will invite authors to submit position papers only, discussing their
prior experience and new developments in the scope of the workshop to feed
into the group and the following panel discussions.

We further encourage authors of the accepted papers to present a video or
demonstrate their works and achievements.

All accepted papers will have short oral presentations.

Please find below the full CFP, but do not hesitate to contact us for
further information.

best regards

Alessandra

Submission deadline

14 June 2024

This workshop will be a half day event on 26 August and it is organised in
conjunction with the IEEE RO-MAN 2024 <http://ro-man2024.org/> conference,
held in Pasadena, California, USA.

This workshop focuses on the continuous investigation of unresolved and new
open challenges of the factors affecting people's acceptance and trust in
robots in short- and long-term settings. In particular, we want to look
into the dynamics between people and robots to foster short interactions
and long-lasting relationships taking inspiration from different domains,
such as educational, service, collaborative, companion, care-home and
medical robotics. For that, this workshop aims to facilitate a discussion
about people’s trust towards robots “in the field”, inviting workshop
participants to contribute their past experiences, lessons learnt and
future issues.

During last year's workshop edition (i.e., SCRITA at RO-MAN 2023), together
with leading researchers and exceptional speakers from various fields, we
started working towards developing such novel methods. We outlined current
methods and their strengths, discussing how these measures do not always
reflect appropriately, or how some questions might be ambiguous and leave
room for interpretation by individual participants. We identified five main
factors affecting trust to be investigated to generate a new metric that
allows researchers to assess and reduce common side effects influencing how
people put their trust in robots.
Submission & List of Topics

The workshop will be open to a broad audience from academia and industry
researching social robotics, machine learning, robot behavioural control,
and user profiling. In particular, we aim to integrate expertise from
roboticists with psychologists' and sociologists’ insights and experiences
to foster a multidisciplinary and human-focused discussion that can capture
the multi-faceted nature of trust and acceptance. We will foster the
exchange of views on past and ongoing research and contribute to the
discussion of innovative ideas for tackling unresolved issues by providing
new and inspirational directions for research.

We will invite authors to submit position papers only, discussing their
prior experience and new developments in the scope of the workshop to feed
into the group and the following panel discussions.

We further encourage authors of the accepted papers to present a video or
demonstrate their works and achievements.

All accepted submissions will have an oral presentation.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

   -

   Impact of Social Cues on Trust in HRI;
   -

   Measuring Trust in HRI;
   -

Submission Guidelines

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>.

Authors needs to submit their PDF via EasyChair
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=scrita2024>. 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.
Invited Speakers
We confirm the participation of Prof. Selma Šabanović.
