HHAI 2024 : The third International Conference on Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence

Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence (HHAI) is an international conference series that focuses on the study of Artificial Intelligence systems that cooperate synergistically, proactively and purposefully with humans, amplifying instead of replacing human intelligence. HHAI aims for AI systems that work together with humans, emphasizing the need for adaptive, collaborative, responsible, interactive and human-centered intelligent systems. HHAI systems leverage human strengths and compensate for human weaknesses, while taking into account social, ethical and legal considerations.

HHAI 2024, to be held June 10–14, 2024, in Malmö, Sweden, is the third conference in the series.

The HHAI field is driven by developments in AI, but it also requires fundamentally new approaches and solutions. Thus, we encourage collaborations across research domains such as AI, HCI, cognitive and social sciences, philosophy & ethics, complex systems, and others. In this third international conference, we invite scholars from these fields to submit their best original – new as well as in progress – works, and visionary ideas on Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence.

== Location ==

HHAI 2024 will be an in-person, single-track conference, held in Malmö, Sweden on June 10-14, 2024. More information on the venue as well as travel information can be found here.

== Topics ==

We invite research on different challenges in Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence. The following list of topics is illustrative, not exhaustive:

-Human-AI interaction and collaboration
-Adaptive human-AI co-learning and co-creation
-Learning, reasoning and planning with humans and machines in the loop
-User modeling and personalisation
-Integration of learning and reasoning
-Transparent, explainable, and accountable AI
-Fair, ethical, responsible, and trustworthy AI
-Societal awareness of AI
-Multimodal machine perception of real world settings
-Social signal processing
-Representations learning for Communicative or Collaborative AI
-Symbolic and narrative-based representations for human-centric AI
-Role of Design and Compositionality of AI systems in Interpretable / Collaborative AI

We welcome contributions about all types of technology, from robots and conversational agents to multi-agent systems and machine learning models.

== Paper types ==

In this conference, we wish to stimulate the exchange of novel ideas and interdisciplinary perspectives. To do this, we will accept three different types of papers:

-Full papers present original, impactful work (12 pages excluding references)
-Blue sky papers present visionary ideas to stimulate the research community (8 pages excluding references)
-Working papers present work in progress (8 pages excluding references)

Accepted full papers and Blue sky papers will be published in the Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Hybrid Human-Machine Intelligence, in the Frontiers of AI series by IOS Press. Working papers can be included in these proceedings, unless the authors request the paper to remain unpublished.

== Reviewing process & Submission guidelines ==

Submissions of full, blue-sky, and working papers should be original work without substantial overlap with pre-published papers.

All submissions should adhere to IOS formatting guidelines (https://www.iospress.com/book-article-instructions). Papers should be written in English and detailed submission instructions can also be found here.

Important: Unlike previous iterations, HHAI 2024 will follow a double-blind reviewing process. Thus, submissions must exclude all information that might disclose the authors’ names or affiliations.

All studies involving human participants should have received human-research ethics consent from the relevant institutions and mention this in the paper.

Work should be submitted in PDF format via Easychair: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=hhai2024

On acceptance, at least one author should attend the conference. A significant contribution is expected from all authors.
