It is a town of great visual diversity and<br>contrast from spectacular seafront views, historic places like the mediaeval<br>Castle, and Byzantine churches. </font><font face='Lucida Grande' color='#363739'>Along the 17 km long sandy beaches, two<br>Marinas, world renowned 5 star hotels, and a most exciting dining, shopping,<br>nightlife and yachting scene create a year-round vibrant lifestyle well beyond<br>the expectations of a Mediterranean island.</font><font face='Lucida Grande'><br><br>ACM IUI is where the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) community meets<br>the Artificial Intelligence (AI), with contributions from related fields such as<br>psychology, behavioral science, cognitive science, computer graphics, design<br>or the arts. Our focus is to improve the interaction between humans and<br>machines, by leveraging both more traditional HCI approaches, as well as<br>solutions that involve state-of-the art AI techniques such as machine<br>learning, natural language processing, data mining, knowledge<br>representation and reasoning. ACM IUI welcomes contribution from any<br>relevant arena: academia, business, or non-profit organizations.<br><br><u>Why you should submit to ACM IUI:<br></u><br>At ACM IUI, we focus on the interaction between machine intelligence and<br>human intelligence. While other conferences focus on one side or the other,<br>we address the complex interaction between the two. We welcome research<br>that explores how to make the interaction between computers and people<br>smarter, which may leverage solutions from data mining, knowledge<br>representation, novel interaction paradigms, and emerging technologies. We<br>strongly encourage submissions that discuss research from both HCI and AI<br>simultaneously, but also welcome works that focus more on one side or the other.<br><br>The conference brings together people from academia, industry and<br>non-profit organizations and gives its participants the opportunity to present<br>and see cutting-edge IUI work in a focused and interactive setting. It is large<br>enough to be diverse and lively, but small enough to allow for extensive<br>interaction among attendees and easy attendance to the events that the<br>conference offers, ranging from oral paper presentations, poster sessions,<br>workshops, panels and doctoral consortium for graduate students. <br><br><br></font><font face='Lucida Grande' size='4'><b>Submission<br></b></font><font face='Lucida Grande'><br><u>Full and Short Papers<br></u> <br>We invite original paper submissions that describe novel user interfaces,<br>applications, interactive and intelligent technologies, empirical studies, or<br>design techniques. IUI 2017 especially encourages submissions on innovative<br>and visionary new concepts or directions for the design of intelligent<br>interfaces. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do expect papers<br>to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated contribution. <br><br>Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices.<br>A selected set of accepted top quality full papers will be invited to submit<br>their extended versions for publication in an <b>ACM Transactions on<br>Interactive Intelligent Systems</b> (TiiS, </font><font face='Lucida Grande' color='#F09AFF'><u><a href="http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=c2NlLmNhcmxldG9uLmNhICwJCQlmZy1hcmNAbGlzdHMudW5pLXBhZGVyYm9ybi5kZQkyMm5kIEFDTSBJbnRlcm5hdGlvbmFsIENvbmZlcmVuY2Ugb24gSW50ZWxsaWdlbnQgVXNlciBJbnRlcmZhY2VzIChJVUkgMjAxNyk6IEZpZnRoIENhbGwgZm9yIFBhcGVycwk2MwlMaXN0cwkyNDcJY2xpY2sJeWVzCW5v&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftiis.acm.org">http://tiis.acm.org</a></u></font><font face='Lucida Grande'>) special issue<br>titled "Highlights of IUI 2017".<br><br>Examples of ACM IUI topics of interest include, but are not limited to:<br>· Intelligent visualization tools<br>· User-Adaptive interaction and personalization<br>· Recommender systems<br>· Intelligent wearable, mobile and ubiquitous interfaces<br>· Modeling and prediction of user behavior<br>· Information retrieval and search<br>· Education and learning-related technologies<br>· Social media analysis<br>· Multi-modal interfaces (speech, gestures, eye gaze, face, physiological<br> information etc.)<br>· Natural language and speech processing<br>· Generation of multimodal content<br>· Big Data and analytics<br>· Smart environments and tangible computing<br>· Intelligent assistants for complex tasks<br>· Collaborative interfaces<br>· Persuasive and assistive technologies in IUI<br>· Affective and aesthetic interfaces<br>· Interactive machine learning<br>· Planning and plan recognition for IUI<br>· Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation<br>· Proactive and agent-based user interaction<br>· Example-and demonstration-based interfaces<br>· Evaluations of intelligent user interfaces<br><br><u>Submission Guidelines<br></u><br>· Full paper (anonymized 10 pages, references do not count toward the page<br> limit) should make substantial, novel, and relevant contribution to the field. <br><br>· Short paper (anonymized 4 pages, references do not count toward the page<br> limit) is a much more focused and succinct contribution to the field. Short<br> papers are not expected to include a discussion of related work that is as<br> broad and complete as that of full papers. <br><br>· Anonymization: ACM IUI uses a double-blind review process. All submissions<br> must be appropriately anonymized according to the following guidelines:<br>1. Author's names and affiliations are not visible anywhere in the paper.<br>2. Acknowledgements should be anonymized or removed during the review<br> process.<br>3. Self-citations should be included where necessary, but must use the thirdperson. For example, "... as shown in our previous user study [2] ..." is notallowed, whereas "... as shown in Smith et al. [2] " is acceptable (because inthis case the citation [2] will NOT be perceived as self-citation). <br><br>Failure to follow these guidelines may results in submissions being rejected<br>without review.<br><u><br></u>Submissions should follow the standard SigCHI format available here:<br><a href="http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=c2NlLmNhcmxldG9uLmNhICwJCQlmZy1hcmNAbGlzdHMudW5pLXBhZGVyYm9ybi5kZQkyMm5kIEFDTSBJbnRlcm5hdGlvbmFsIENvbmZlcmVuY2Ugb24gSW50ZWxsaWdlbnQgVXNlciBJbnRlcmZhY2VzIChJVUkgMjAxNyk6IEZpZnRoIENhbGwgZm9yIFBhcGVycwk2MwlMaXN0cwkyNDcJY2xpY2sJeWVzCW5v&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sigchi.org%2Fpublications%2Fchipubform%2F">http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform/</a> .

This date may be<br>up to two weeks prior to the first day of your conference. The official<br>publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to<br>published work.
