Call for papers

Submission

We invite researchers at an early stage of their career (no age limit) to submit a 2-page position paper.

This should include their past, present and future work, a short bio, and topic suggestions for discussions. Poster Five-minutes presentation by all participants is expected. However, posters can also concern current work and not necessarily be from a published paper.

• Models of dialogue: statistical, symbolic, and hybrid approaches
• Evaluation methodology for dialogue systems
• Semantics, pragmatics, and context in dialogue systems
• Incremental spoken dialogue systems
• Situated interaction with virtual and robotic agents

• Establishing social relationships and engagement with the user

Position papers can be submitted via YRRSDS2019 on the dedicated EasyChair page.

Reviewing

The position papers will be reviewed by a member of the organizing committee and at least one member of the advisory committee.

• We will check if the applicant research interests are suitable for them to take part in YRRSDS.
• We will select the topics of interest pointed out by the applicants and prepare the program according to that.
• We will provide feedback on the position paper and might contribute with ideas to the applicant research.
