EPIA, September 3-6, 2024, Viana do Castelo, Portugal
——————————————————————————– Special Issue ——————————————————————————– The authors of a number of selected papers presented at Data-Centric AI Thematic Track will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for possible inclusion in a special issue of an international journal. Fast-track processing will be used to have them reviewed and published.
——————————————————————————– Aims and Scope ——————————————————————————–
The Thematic Track “Data-Centric AI – Solutions and Emerging Technologies” addresses practical and theoretical contributions related to the use of Data-Centric AI solutions, focusing on cutting-edge research, methodologies, tools, and applications. We encourage researchers and practitioners to conceptualise solutions that revolve around improving data, not models, to ensure efficient and responsible downstream applications.
Submissions are encouraged on a variety of topics related to Data-Centric AI, including, but not limited to, the following:
– Datasets for Data-Centric development – Data bias mitigation techniques – Data quality assessment and accountability – Data governance and regulatory compliance – Transparent multi-modal data fusion – Explainable data augmentation and outlier detection – Privacy-preserving synthetic data – Data Engineering Prompting – Data Auditing and Evaluation Practice – Data labeling and benchmarking techniques – Human-in-the-loop Data Engineering
——————————————————————————– Important Dates ——————————————————————————–
Full paper submission (deadline): May 20, 2024 Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2024 Camera ready version, author registration: July 15, 2024
——————————————————————————– Submission procedure ——————————————————————————– Contributions, written in English, must be formatted according to the guidelines of the Lecture Notes of Computer Science (LNCS) series by Springer-Verlag, which are available together with templates here:
www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines.
We strongly recommend using the LNCS template for LaTeX. The page limit for any contribution, including figures, title pages, references, and appendices, is 12 pages in LNCS format. Submission of the camera-ready version of the paper has to include the authors? consent to publish on the above Springer LNCS website.
Authors may not submit any paper which is under review elsewhere or which has been accepted for publication in a journal or another conference; neither will they submit their papers elsewhere during the review period of the thematic track.

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a paradigm emerging from Artificial 

Intelligence (AI), where computers are used as proactive tools assisting 

people with their day-to-day activities, making everyone’s life more 

comfortable.

 

Affect and social behaviour plays an important role in the development 

of Ambient Intelligent Environments. Consideration of aspects like 

emotions, mood, personality traits, and attitudes in human-computer, 

human-robot, and human-environment interaction, especially insofar as 

they provide better or more “natural” support for humans. These 

environments should be aware of the needs of people, customizing 

requirements and forecasting behaviours.

 

AmI environments may be highly diverse, such as homes, offices, meeting 

rooms, schools, hospitals, control centers, transport facilities, 

tourist attractions, stores, sport installations, music devices, etc.

 

In the Thematic track on AmIA Environments we will create a 

multi-disciplinary discussion forum that will bring together researchers 

from the different fields addressed discussing issues in Artificial 

Intelligence topics included in the Ambient Intelligence and affective 

environments. Researchers are welcome to present both theoretical and 

practical works as well as the lessons learned with their application in 

the varied range of domains. Emphasis will be placed on the presentation 

of concrete systems, discussion of implementation and development 

challenges and sharing of conclusions achieved and relevant results.
