IMPORTANT DATES:
===============
29 November 2009: Paper submissions due
18 December 2009: Notification of acceptance / rejection
7 Jan 2009: Camera-ready copies of accepted papers
7 February 2010: Workshop
7-10 February International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI)
AIMS AND SCOPE
===============
Negotiation is a complex and sometimes emotional decision-making process
aiming to reach an agreement to exchange goods or services. Although a
daily activity, extensive research has shown that few people are
effective negotiators. Current state of the art negotiation support
systems can help make a significant improvement in negotiation
performance. In particular, when the negotiation space is
well-understood, partly because machines can much better deal with the
computational complexity involved. However, the negotiation space can
only be properly developed if the human parties jointly explore their
interests. The inherent semantic problem and the emotional issues
involved make that negotiation cannot be handled by artificial
intelligence alone, and a human-machine collaborative system is
required. Such systems not only support humans with strategic advice but
also provide advice on coping with emotions and moods in human-human
interactions.
To develop the next generation of support systems there are still many,
diverse challenges, including: models of (qualitative, incomplete)
preferences, preference change and strategies, preference elicitation,
assessment methods for negotiation performance, learning and
adaptiveness in negotiation, models of emotion and user awareness.
Like its predecessor, HuCom08, this workshop aims to bring together, and
build a community of researchers from artificial intelligence,
human-computer interaction, affective computing as well as researchers
who are interested in negotiation support from a psychological,
economical or social sciences perspective. Whereas HuCom08 was a
standalone workshop, it is now organized as an IUI Workshop because of
the shared interest in the combination of AI and HCI. We feel that the
two communities can greatly benefit from each others work.
TOPICS
===============
Topics include but are not limited to:
• Negotiation strategies (bidding, acceptance)
• Recommender Systems
• Trust-inspiring user interfaces for decision-making support
• Usability and Social acceptability of decision-making support tools
• Argumentation for negotiation
• Learning in negotiation
• Negotiation domain knowledge
• Preference elicitation
• Qualitative preferences
• Incomplete preferences
• Ontologies for negotiation (protocols, preferences, domain knowledge)
• Negotiation Support Systems
• User interfaces for Negotiation Support Systems
• Human-machine negotiation
• Negotiation, conflict handling, and experiments related to e.g.
consensus building
• Personality in negotiation (e.g. Big Five)
• Emotions in negotiation
• Cultural factors in negotiation
• Negotiation bidding advice
• Bargaining styles
• Trust in automatically generated negotiation advice
• Negotiation applications
• E-commerce
• Methods and tools for negotiation tasks
• Design and Evaluation of support systems
• Conflict handling styles and consensus building
• HCI aspects and human factors of negotiation
PAPER SUBMISSION
================
We are pleased to solicit original and unpublished papers, currently not
under review, for publication and presentation in the Workshop on Human
Factors and Computational Models in Negotiation. Articles describing
novel ideas and applications in all areas related to human factors and
computational models in negotiation, preference elicitation,
recommendations, or group decision are of interest. We also invite
submissions of statements of interests, position papers and demos.
Papers should not be more than 10 pages. Each submitted paper will be
fully refereed by at least three referees. The reviewing process will be
managed by an international program committee.
Papers will be published in the HuCom10 @ IUI workshop proceedings with
an ISBN. Accepted papers will be considered for publication in a special
issue of an international journal.
Submission is entirely automated by a paper management tool, which is
available from the main web site:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hucom2010iui. Authors must
first register their own account by obtaining a password, and then
follow the instructions.
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be
presented at the workshop.
FORMAT
================
A full-day workshop on February 7th, at the International Conference on
Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI), that includes paper presentations, a
demo session and ample room for discussion of the issues and ideas
presented during the day.
ORGANIZERS
================
Pascal Wiggers Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands
Alina Pommeranz Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands
Pearl Pu Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland
