Call for Papers

ARIAL@IJCAI21 will be held virtually in Montreal, Canada. In this workshop, we invite previously unpublished and novel submissions in the following areas, but not limited to:

  • Methods and protocols for data collection, data annotation, and data labeling with older adult populations .

  • Development and deployment of long term sensor based monitoring systems.

  • Techniques for telerehabilitation, telemedicine and remote monitoring.

  • Video Analysis to explore patient engagement, therapy compliance, exercise monitoring, body pose estimations, successful delivery of rehab.

  • Addressing privacy concerns of patient data, such as by using privacy protecting sensing modalities, federated learning and differential privacy.

  • Techniques for continuous streaming, monitoring and analysis of health, activity, contextual, and online data for older adults.

  • Techniques for handling data biases, and other biases related to sex, gender, ethnicity and age.

  • Developing interpretable, explainable and ethical AI models for aging population.

  • Methodologies for big data, large-scale data mining, including cloud computing.

  • Data analytics and visualization techniques for healthcare data.

  • ML techniques to identify harmful, life-threatening, abnormal behaviours and coping with rare events in health care.

  • ML methods for measuring health indicators, progression of physical and cognitive health, e.g. frailty, dementia, mental health, gait stability.

  • Data mining challenges such as handling missing information, dealing with mixed, imbalanced, poorly labeled and noisy data.

  • ML approaches for data fusion from multi-modal sensor interaction and ensemble algorithm development.

  • Multi-agent models to capture interaction between patients, caregivers and family to provide assistance.

  • Probabilistic and Case-based reasoning to provide assistance.

  • Using Deep Learning solutions for supporting assistive technology devices and facilitating transfer learning.

  • Developing smart agents to understand sentiments of the client for providing focussed care.

  • Developing smart-home solutions and interventions for connecting and engaging older adults with the environment.

  • Models that use Smart Technology, Speech recognition and dialog based interaction with older adults to handle social isolation.
