* 6th International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction (HAI 2018) *<br>
<br>
*** Southampton, UK --- 15-18 December 2018 *** <br>

<br>
HAI 2018 is the 6th annual International Conference on Human-Agent<br>
Interaction. It aims to be the premier interdisciplinary venue for<br>
discussing and disseminating state-of-the-art research and results<br>
that reach across conventional interaction boundaries from people to a<br>
wide range of intelligent systems, including physical robots, software<br>
agents and digitally-mediated human-human communication. HAI focusses<br>
on technical as well as social aspects.<br>
<br>
The theme for HAI 2018 is *Trustworthy Interaction*. During the last<br>
decade, much research has been devoted to increasing the interaction<br>
quality between humans and artificial intelligent agents. At the same<br>
time, more and more intelligent systems are generating decisions,<br>
either autonomously or with people "in-the-loop". Many questions<br>
arise when considering the trustworthiness of intelligent systems,<br>
operating on their own or in collaboration with people. Do users<br>
trust these systems? Do the systems trust people? How can systems<br>
gain users' trust, and vice versa? What happens if trust is lost?<br>
How is trust modelled? How is trust evaluated?<br>
<br>
As robots and agents enter our everyday lives, interactions will<br>
require more initiative and flexibility from agents, i.e., greater<br>
autonomy and intelligence; however, outcomes may be less predictable.<br>
Current research trends which emphasise statistical behaviour models<br>
constructed from observations may only capture rather shallow<br>
structures and may overlook more complex aspects that underly less<br>
restricted exchanges. We strive for better understanding and models<br>
of interaction principles that take into account not only situational<br>
and task aspects but also detailed user models. More research is<br>
necessary to lead the way towards deeper and more robust models of<br>
human-agent interaction. HAI encourages contributions that tackle<br>
these questions in realistic, practical settings.<br>
<br>
The HAI conference seeks contributions from a broad range of fields<br>
spanning engineering, computer science, psychology and sociology, <br>
covering diverse areas, including:<br>
<br>
- human-robot interaction;<br>
- intelligent systems;<br>
- affective computing;<br>
- computer-supported collaborative work;<br>
- gaming/serious games; and <br>
- artificial intelligence.<br>
<br>
Topics include, but are not limited to:<br>
<br>
- studies of Human-Agent Interaction, with quantitative/qualitative results;<br>
- theoretical models;<br>
- technological advances;<br>
- experimental methods;<br>
- impacts of embodiment;<br>
- character and avatar design; and<br>
- agents in social networks.<br>
<br>
Results that have implications to the broader HAI communities are<br>
encouraged (e.g., HRI, human-virtual agent interaction, and<br>
interaction with smart homes and autonomous vehicles), as well as<br>
position papers and preliminary, high-impact studies.<br>
<br>
Full papers, posters, late-breaking results, tutorial/workshop overviews<br>
will be archived in the ACM Digital Library. Selected papers will be invited to submit to a special issue of the Knowledge Engineering Review journal (https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/knowledge-engineering-review).<br>
