CALL FOR SPECIAL TRACK PROPOSALS
FLAIRS-37 https://www.flairs-37.info/
Miramar Beach, Florida, USA, May 18-21, 2024
Venue: Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa


Special tracks, held in parallel with the general conference, are an integral part of the FLAIRS conferences. They provide researchers in focused areas the opportunity to meet and present their work, and offer a forum for interaction among the broader community of artificial intelligence researchers. Special track papers are required to meet the same standards as papers in the general conference and are published in the same conference proceedings. 
Tracks of interest are in all areas of artificial intelligence, including but not limited to:
* Applied AI in Healthcare, Government, Education, etc.
* Applied Natural Language Processing
* AI for Internet of Things
* AI for Urban Traffic Control and Mobility
* Autonomous Robots and Agents
* Case-Based Reasoning
* Deep Learning
* Explainability, Bias, and Trust
* Games, Serious Games, and Multimedia
* Intelligent Learning Technologies
* Neural Networks and Data Mining
* Recommender Systems
* Security, Privacy and Ethics in AI  
* Semantic, Logics, Information Extraction
* Uncertain Reasoning
Submission of proposals for special tracks is now invited. Chairs of special tracks will work closely with the Special Tracks coordinator and are expected to respond promptly and communicate regularly in order to maximize the potential impact of the track. Special track chairs may submit papers to their own tracks (those papers will be reviewed by the general conference program committee, and acceptance decisions will be made by the conference program co-chairs).

Formatting and Submission Instructions 

The special track proposals should be submitted in EasyChair: 
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=flairs37  (choose Special Track Proposals as author)


Proposals must be made using the template : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xc_rWQ5WoJNztOhy13rOPx58odCtVMZ0/. Please include the following information in all proposals:


* Title of the special track.
* Anticipated numbers of submissions and accepted papers. A track may have up to 4 sessions, with 3 to 4 papers per session. Special tracks that fail to attract sufficient papers will be merged into the general conference or a suitable alternative track.
* Names and contact information for the special track chair(s) and those who have so far agreed to serve on the special track's program committee. The program committee should be large enough for each paper to have 3 reviews.
* Promotional plans and materials, including a draft call for papers, specific plans for publicizing the special track (including possible conference/CFP announcement websites), and the names of any speakers you are considering inviting. (FLAIRS cannot offer any form of financial support for special track invited speakers at this stage.)
* Summary of any special tracks you have organized for FLAIRS over the last two years: special track title(s), year(s), number of submissions (full paper and poster), and number of acceptances (full paper and poster).

Important dates: 
* August 28, 2023 - Proposals for Special Tracks
