Overview:
================
ACM IUI 2016 is the 21st annual meeting of the intelligent interfaces
community and serves as the principal international forum for reporting
outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces. IUI is
a multidisciplinary field where Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) meets
Artificial Intelligence (AI), with contributions from related fields such
as cognitive science, computer graphics, psychology, behavioural science,
design, the arts. Our focus is to improve the interaction between humans
and machines, by leveraging both more traditional HCI approaches, as well
as solutions that involve state-of-the art AI techniques such as machine
learning, natural-language processing, data mining, knowledge
representation and reasoning.

The conference brings together people from academia, industry and
non-profit organizations and gives its participants the opportunity to
present and see cutting-edge IUI work in an focused and interactive
setting. It is large enough to be diverse and lively (we expect over 200
people), but small enough to allow for extensive interaction among
attendees and easy attendance to the events that the conference offers,
ranging from oral paper presentations, poster sessions, workshops, panels
and doctoral consortium for graduate students.

Authors of accepted IUI 2016 full papers will have an opportunity to submit
extended versions to the ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent
Systems (TiiS, http://tiis.acm.org) for consideration for a special issue
titled "Highlights of IUI 2016". For information on what counts as an
appropriate "extension" of a conference paper for TiiS, see submissions)

Topics:
================

IUI topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

** Processing of multi-modal input (gestures, eye gaze, face, physiological
information etc.)
** Natural language and speech processing
** Intelligent visualization tools
** Generation of multimodal content
** Big Data/Text summarization and analytics
** Intelligent interfaces for ubiquitous computing
** Smart environments and tangible computing
** Smart interaction and interfaces for wearable computing
** Intelligent assistants for complex tasks
** Support for collaboration in multiuser environments
** Persuasive and assistive technologies in IUI
** Affective, social and aesthetic interfaces
** Education and learning-related technologies
** User-Adaptive interaction
** Recommender systems
** Modelling and prediction of user behaviour
** Interactive Machine Learning
** Planning and plan recognition for IUI
** Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation
** Proactive and agent-based paradigms for user interaction
** Example-and demonstration-based interfaces
** Evaluations of intelligent user interfaces
** Submission - Long and Short Papers

We invite original paper submissions that describe novel user interfaces,
** applications, interactive and intelligent technologies, empirical
studies, or design techniques. IUI 2016 especially encourages submissions
on innovative and visionary new concepts or directions for the design of
intelligent interfaces. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do
expect papers to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated
contribution.
Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation
indices.

Full papers (10 pages with unlimited references) should make substantial,
novel and relevant contributions to the field.

Short papers (4 pages with unlimited references) can either contain smaller
contributions or novel work that is still progress.

Accepted full papers will be invited for oral presentation and short papers
either as oral or poster presentation.
