[agents] Deadline Extension and Final Call for Papers: Workshop on Social Choice and Learning Algorithms @ IJCAI 2025

[Ben Armstrong]

Apologies for cross-posting.

See below for call for papers. Submission deadline extended to May 16.

-------------------------

We are delighted to announce that the 2nd Workshop on Social Choice and Learning Algorithms (SCaLA-25) will take place at IJCAI in August of 2025 in Montreal, Canada. It will feature technical sessions, a keynote speaker, and opportunities to develop collaborations between researchers working in social choice and those working in machine learning.

The website and submission instructions can be found at the following link: https://sites.google.com/view/scala25

The submission deadline is May 9 May 16, 2025. We encourage submissions of fully developed research projects as well as preliminary explorations of novel ideas. Submissions should include components from both fields of social choice and machine learning (or closely related topics).

Topics of interest include:

-

Computational social choice

-

Fair Division

-

Matching

-

Voting theory

-

Sortition

-

Clustering

-

Ensemble learning

-

Explainable ML

-

Language models

-

Preference learning

-

PAC learning

Examples of interesting connections between these topics include, but are not at all limited to:

-

Using machine learning to learn new mechanisms for matching

-

Novel uses of social choice for ensemble learning

-

Exploring the application of fair division concepts to clustering problems, or vice-versa

-

Applying multi-winner voting concepts to multi-class classification tasks

Please feel free to contact any member of the organizing committee with questions!
