The theme of AffCon 2019 is “Modeling Affect in Action.” We invite papers that offer modeling and measurement of affect and identify the best affect–related dimensions to study consumer behavior. In turn, that allows data models to be more informed in representing behaviors and hence effective in guiding decisions and actions by firms. We welcome submissions on topics including - but not limited to - the following:
We especially invite papers investigating multiple related themes, industry papers, and descriptions of running projects and ongoing work. To address the scarcity of standardized baselines, datasets, and evaluation metrics for cross-disciplinary affective content analysis, submissions describing new language resources, evaluation metrics, and standards for affect analysis and understanding are also strongly encouraged.
Pre-published/in-press work is also invited as a part of a short presentation and poster session to encourage discussions and introductions across communities. These submissions will not be re-published but a few selected papers will be accepted for posters and short presentations.
Submissions should be made via EasyChair and must follow the formatting guidelines for AAAI-2019 (use the AAAI Author Kit). All submissions must be anonymous and conform to AAAI standards for double-blind review. Both full papers (8 page long including references) and short papers (4 page long including references) that adhere to the 2-column AAAI format will be considered for review.
We invite submissions for the First Shared Task on Computational Linguistics for Affect Understanding. CL-AFF 2019 invites submissions of systems that attempt to understand Happiness and Wellbeing.
