CFP Reminder: The 2nd Plat Gov Research Conference
by Robyn Caplan 22 Dec '22

22 Dec '22

Hi Everyone! I wanted to send a reminder about the deadline for abstracts for the 2023 Platform Governance Research Network conference (December 19th). You can apply here on EasyChair <https://easychair.org/cfp/PlatGovNet2023>. In keeping with our mission and commitments to this being a *global network, *this will be *a virtual conference with accommodations made to account for multiple time zones *(we make it a lot of fun! I swear!). We're shooting for the moon with the theme for the conference, asking participants to imagine what *trustworthy, sustainable, and democratic platform governance **could *look like. With everything going on with Twitter, and movements over to alternative platforms, this is a good opportunity to think about how new forms of governance and participation can take shape over platforms (while also keeping our focus on making the bigger platforms more accountable). But really, we invite all papers talking about themes related to: - *Empirical studies of platform governance from the micro to the macro,* utilizing a range of qualitative as well as quantitative, experimental, and/or computational methods. - *Policy-oriented analyses of private and governmental efforts to regulate platforms *across the broad categories of online content, competition policy, labour, data protection, and more. - *Conceptual or theoretical insights that highlight gaps in the current public or scholarly conceptions of platform governance*, as well as normatively oriented work that engages with important questions, visions, and notions for/of platform governance going forward. - *The meta-aspects of scholarly work as it relates to major technology platforms,* and the relations between policy, academia, and civil society in the emerging platform governance research and policy landscape. Extended abstracts (800-1000 words) are due December 19th. Accepted submissions will be announced in mid-February.*. * Please circulate the call among your networks! Thank you! - Robyn Caplan https://easychair.org/cfp/PlatGovNet2023 -- Senior Researcher Data & Society Research Institute @RobynCaplan

*** Third Call for Papers *** UMAP ’23: 31st ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization June 26 - 29, 2023, St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus https://www.um.org/umap2023/ ACM UMAP is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or groups of users, and that collect, represent, and model user information. ACM UMAP is sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and SIGWEB. User Modeling Inc., as the core Steering Committee, oversees the conference organization. The proceedings, published by ACM, will be part of the ACM Digital Library. The theme of UMAP 2023 is "Personalization in Times of Crisis”. Specifically, we welcome submissions that highlight the impact that critical periods (such as the COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing wars, and climate change, to name a few) can have on user modeling, personalization, and adaptation of (intelligent) systems; the focus is on investigations that capture how these trying times may have influenced user behavior and whether new models are required. While we encourage submissions related to this theme, the scope of the conference is not limited to the theme only. As always, contributions from academia, industry, and other organizations discussing open challenges or novel research approaches are expected to be supported by rigorous evidence appropriate to the claims (e.g., user study, system evaluation, computational analysis). IMPORTANT DATES • Paper Abstracts: January 19, 2023 (mandatory) • Full paper: January 26, 2023 • Notification: April 11, 2023 • Camera-ready: May 2, 2023 • Conference: June 26 - 29, 2023 Note: The submissions deadlines are at 11:59 pm AoE time (Anywhere on Earth) CONFERENCE TOPICS We welcome submissions related to user modeling, personalization, and adaptation of (intelligent) systems targeting a broad range of users and domains. For detailed descriptions and the suggested topics for each track please visit the UMAP 2023 website. Personalized Recommender Systems This track invites works from researchers and practitioners on recommender systems. In addition to mature research works addressing technical aspects of recommendations, we welcome research contributions that address questions related to user perception, decision-making, and the business value of recommender systems. Knowledge Graphs, Semantics, Social and Adaptive Web This track welcomes works focused on the use of knowledge representations (i.e., novel knowledge bases), graph algorithms (i.e., graph embedding techniques), and social network analysis at the service of addressing all aspects of personalization, user model building, and personal experience in online social systems. Moreover, this track invites works in adaptive hypermedia, as well as semantic and social web. Intelligent User Interfaces This track invites works exploring how to make the interaction between computers and people smarter and more productive, leveraging solutions from human-computer interaction, data mining, natural language processing, information visualization, and knowledge representation and reasoning. Personalizing Learning Experiences through User Modeling This track invites researchers, developers, and practitioners from various disciplines to submit their innovative learning solutions, share acquired experiences, and discuss their modeling challenges for personalized adaptive learning. Responsibility, Compliance, and Ethics Researchers, developers, and practitioners have a social responsibility to account for the impact that technologies have on individuals (users, providers, and other stakeholders) and society. This track invites works related to the science of building, maintaining, evaluating, and studying adaptive systems that are fair, transparent, respectful of users’ privacy, and beneficial to society. Personalization for Persuasive and Behavior Change Systems This track invites submissions focused on personalization and tailoring for persuasive technologies, including but not limited to personalization models, user models, computational personalization, design, and evaluation methods. It also welcomes work that brings attention to the user experience and designing personalized and adaptive behavior change technologies. Virtual Assistants, Conversational Interactions, and Personalized Human-robot Interaction This track invites works investigating new models and techniques for adapting synthetic companions (e.g., virtual assistants, chatbots, social robots) to individual users. With the conversational modality so in vogue across disciplines, this track welcomes work highlighting the model and deployment of synthetic companions driven by conversational search and recommendation paradigms. Research Methods and Reproducibility This track invites submissions on methodologies to evaluate personalized systems, benchmarks, and measurement scales, with particular attention to the reproducibility of results and techniques.

CFP - OSNeHM 2023 (co-located with The Web Conf): Workshop on Online Social Networks in the Human-centric Metaverse
by Andrea Passarella 21 Dec '22

21 Dec '22

******************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS ACM OSNeHM 2023 First International workshop on Online Social Networks in the Human-centric Metaverse co-located with The Web Conference 2023 Austin, Texas, USA APRIL 30 - MAY 4, 2023 https://osnehm.iit.cnr.it/ ******************************************************************** NEXT DEADLINES (all deadlines are AoE) ******************************************************************** 23rd January 2023: Abstract submission deadline 6th February 2023: Workshop paper submission deadline ******************************************************************** SUBMISSION LINK ******************************************************************** https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=thewebconf2023iwpd ******************************************************************** SCOPE AND OVERVIEW __________________ The cyber and physical worlds are increasingly becoming indistinguishable. This is fostered by enabling technologies such as IoT and pervasive networks, advanced data management and analytics techniques, and advanced platforms with massive diffusion, chiefly among them Online Social Networks. Whatever we do in one world has immediate consequences on the other world, thanks to a constant flow of data - and online analytics - between the two worlds. In this context, the vision of the Metaverse provides additional perspectives, augmenting human interactions with things and other humans across the two worlds. The role of the humans in this socio-technical complex system is key, and still largely unexplored. Quite interestingly, while new tools characteristic of the cyber-physical world- OSN among them - have been designed to largely extend human capabilities, the real interplay between these tools and human behaviours and cognitive constraints often result in unexpected results. Therefore, while humans are in principle at the center of the cyber-physical convergence and, thus -- in the perspective -- of the Metaverse, the interplay between both worlds and the technical solutions underpinning this convergence are hitherto largely unexplored and yet to be understood. This is a big gap our community should feel, in order to develop cyber-physical worlds (and the Metaverse) as a truly human-centric environment. OSNeHM’s main theme will be the role of Online Social Networks in such a human-centric cyber-physical convergence leading to the Metaverse. It will provide a forum for discussion on early yet principled approaches and results on all aspects related to this theme. A special emphasis will be devoted to the characterisation of the individual and social behaviour of humans, using OSN as “big data microscopes” for collecting and analysing big data via robust big data analytics. Papers discussing solutions focusing on the interplay between social and technical (online and offline) worlds will be high welcome. On the other hand, the workshop will welcome papers proposing novel technical solutions to support human-centric approaches to the evolution of OSN in the perspective of the Metaverse. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * OSNeHM platforms, protocols and applications; * OSN and Metaverse services & applications; * Decentralised, mobile and location-based OSNeHM; * Trust, reputation, privacy and security in OSNeHM; * Dynamics of trends, information and opinion diffusion in OSNeHM; * Fake news, toxicity radicalization and disinformation in OSNeHM; * Detecting, modeling and tackling Online harms in OSNeHM; * Recommendations and advertising in OSNeHM; * Measurement, analysis and modeling of popular OSN (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr, etc.), including decentralized ones (e.g., Mastodon, Pleroma, ...); * Data mining, and machine learning in OSNeHM systems; * Social media analysis and social analytics in the perspective of OSNeHM; * Information extraction and search in OSNeHM; * Complex-network analysis of OSNeHM; * Modeling of social behavior through OSN data; * Crowdsourcing and OSNeHM; * Multidisciplinary applications of OSNeHM (economics, medicine, society, politics, homeland security, psychology, etc.) PAPER FORMAT AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ________________________________________ Papers that have been previously published or are under review for another journal, conference or workshop will not be considered for publication. Submitted papers should not exceed 12 pages in length (maximum 8 pages for the main paper content + maximum 2 pages for appendixes + maximum 2 pages for references). Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to the ACM template published in the ACM guidelines, selecting the generic “sigconf” sample. The PDF files must have all non-standard fonts embedded. Workshop papers must be self-contained and in English. Submissions that do not follow these guidelines may be rejected without review.
