Based on the reviews received from PC members, the impactful presentation of the work, and the engaging discussions held during the workshop, CMAS proudly awards 'Towards Reducing School Segregation by Intervening on Transportation Networks [DOI]' with the Most Visionary Paper Award, and 'Deliberation and Voting in Approval-Based Multi-Winner Elections [DOI]' with the Best Paper Award.

Join us for the C-MAS 2023 workshop, where we will delve into the realm of citizen-centric multiagent systems. In today's world, large-scale AI systems hold the potential to tackle critical societal challenges, from decarbonising our energy system to facilitating on-demand mobility and improving disaster response. However, we often overlook the active role of citizen end users, treating them merely as data providers and service consumers. Our workshop aims to shift this perspective and explore innovative approaches that treat citizen end users as primary agents with diverse needs and preferences. By doing so, we can develop more trustworthy, fair, and widely accepted sociotechnical solutions to pressing societal challenges.

During C-MAS 2023, we will leverage the extensive research in multiagent systems to model, design, and reason about complex systems comprising interacting self-interested agents. This includes citizen end users, service providers, governmental bodies, and other stakeholders. Furthermore, we will incorporate cutting-edge techniques from trustworthy AI, focusing on fairness promotion and explainability enhancement.
