*** SECOND CALL FOR SPECIAL SESSIONS, WORKSHOPS, AND TUTORIALS ***
31st IEEE Int. Conf. on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN 2022)
August 29th - September 2nd, 2022 Naples, Italy
---==============
The RO-MAN2022 Organising Committee invites proposals for Special Sessions,
Workshops and Tutorials to be held during the 31st IEEE International Conference
on Robot & Human Interactive Communication in Naples, Italy from August 29th to
September 2nd, 2022. The RO-MAN conference is a leading forum where
state-of-the-art innovative results, the latest developments as well as future
perspectives relating to robot and human interactive communication are presented
and discussed. The conference covers a wide range of topics related to Robot and
Human Interactive Communication, involving theories, methodologies,
technologies, empirical and experimental studies. Proposals related to the study
of robotic technology, psychology, cognitive science, artificial intelligence,
human factors, ethics and policies, interaction-based robot design and other
topics related to human-robot interaction are welcome.
This year's theme is “Social, asocial, and antisocial robots”. One of its goals
is to explore how to create robots that are capable of being welcomed as our
assistants and companions in society while, at the same time, not being
perceived as “asocial” or “antisocial”. A second aim is to understand how we can
create robots perceived as facilitators of the natural development of human
beings and communities, rather than obstacles.
IMPORTANT DATES
- Special Session Prposal Submission: JANUARY 10, 2022
- Workshops/Tutorials Proposal Submission: JANUARY 10, 2022
PREPARING SPECIAL SESSION PROPOSALS
Prospective special session organisers are invited to submit a proposal via the
main conference's submission system. The organisers of the accepted special
sessions will be responsible for the high-quality peer-review of the submitted
papers according to IEEE standards (i.e. at least 2 anonymous peer-reviews). The
organisers will be Associate Editors (AE) for the proposed session, and they
will be responsible for assigning reviewers and judging the submitted paper for
the special session.
Proposals should include the following information:
- Title: Please propose a title that shows the relevance of the session for the
RO-MAN community and the innovativeness of the proposed topic.
- Aims and scope: Please explain why the chosen topic is novel and relevant,
with the potential to contribute to the growth of the RO-MAN community, and is
also suitable for either the conference theme or a new emerging theme with
potentially high impact.
- Tentative speakers: Please provide a list of prospective contributing authors
and tentative titles. Special Sessions are normally expected to have 4 to 6
papers. Invited speakers or session-related demonstrations (such as renowned
speakers or industrial talks) could be a part of the Special Session.
- Organisers and biographies: Please provide a short bio-sketch of the session
organisers including their experience in the topic of the Special Session.
The guidelines to submit a special session proposal are available at the Special
Session section on the RO-MAN 2022 website or at the folliwing url:
http://www.smile.unina.it/ro-man2022/special-sessions.
WORKSHOPS and TUTORIALS PROPOSALS
Workshops and tutorials should focus on key areas of established and emerging
research, and should provide a forum for participants to exchange new ideas and
discuss recent results. We encourage proposals for topics that have substantial
community interest, with a creative and innovative program, led by recognised
leaders in their fields, that will attract a broad and diverse audience.
Organisers of approved workshops and tutorials will be asked to create and
maintain a dedicated webpage, which will be used to promote the
workshop/tutorial, and disseminate relevant and updated information.
Proposals should include the following information:
- Title
- Format (indicate full or half day, tutorial or workshop)
- Main organiser (one person only, complete address, phone, and email)
- Co-organisers (complete address, and email)
- Previous editions (if any)
- Statement of objectives
- Intended audience
- List of speakers
- List of topics
- Plan to solicit participation
- Workshop organisation
- Plan for inclusion, diversity and equity
The guidelines to submit a workshop/tutorial proposal are available at the
Workshop and Tutorial section on the RO-MAN 2022 website or by clicking on this
link.
---=============================
The primary criteria in the evaluation of special session and workshop/tutorial
proposals will be the timeliness of the topics, the quality, track record, and
diversity of the proposers and speakers, the coherence of the proposal, the
novelty or creativity, and the expected value added to the overall conference.
Aspects of diversity that will be considered include the age, gender, national
origin, background, and workplace of the proposers and speakers. We will give
priority to proposals that fully follow these requirements. Moreover, we
encourage the submission of workshops, tutorial and special sessions organized
by communities that are under-represented within the RO-MAN activities.
For any questions and further information about the Special Session and
Workshop/Tutorial proposal, please email workshop@roman2022.org or contact
info@roman2022.org.
