About the Workshop

The emerging concept of Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) involves amplifying, augmentation, empowering and enhancing individuals. HCAI aims to ensure that AI systems operate transparently, deliver fair and equitable outcomes, and respect privacy while preserving human control. This approach involves multiple stakeholders, such as researchers, developers, business leaders, policymakers, and users, who are affected in various ways by implementing and evaluating AI systems.

The primary focus of the First Workshop on User Perspectives in Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence (HCAI4U) is to examine the potential positive and negative impacts of automated decision-making systems on end-users and how human-centred aspects of reliability, safety, and trustworthiness influence their interaction with AI.

The goal of this workshop is to facilitate discussion and exchange of ideas within the community on advances in designing and implementing trustworthy, fair and privacy-preserving systems, as well as explainable user interfaces, with a specific focus on the users' perception in real-world scenarios rather than solely on the algorithmic and model performance.

HCAI4U aims to foster cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary discussions between experts from various research fields, such as computer science, psychology, sociology, law, medicine, business, etc., to discuss problems and synergies in this exciting research topic.

Topics of the Workshop

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Design and evaluation of reliable, safe and trustworthy systems;

• Empirical studies and evaluation of HCAI systems in real-world scenarios;

• Human-in-the-loop for HCAI systems;

• Potential threats for users in HCAI systems;

• Bias detection and mitigation strategies in real-world scenarios;

• Novel approaches to Human-Computer Interaction in HCAI systems;

• Innovative methods for designing HCAI systems;

• Novel metrics for HCAI systems;

• Impact of regulations on HCAI systems;

• Privacy-preserving systems;

• User-adaptive explainable systems;

• Explainable user interfaces;

• Adaptive and personalised user interfaces;

• Transparent user profiling approaches.

Venue

HCAI4U 2023 is co-located with the 15th edition of the Biannual Conference of the Italian SIGCHI Chapter (CHItaly 2023) and hosted in Turin, Piedmont, Italy.

Conference activities will occur inside the newly opened Aldo Moro Campus (Via Giuseppe Verdi, 10124 Turin).
