[Infovis] Early call: ACM SIGIR CHIIR’20

[CHIIR 2020 Program Co-Chairs]

Dear Colleagues,

Please mark your calendars: the fifth ACM SIGIR Conference on Human
Information Interaction and Retrieval (CHIIR <https://www.chiir.org/>)
(pronounced “cheer”) will take place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
on 14–18 March, 2020.

ACM CHIIR 2020 invites submissions focused on user-centered approaches to
the design and evaluation of systems for information access, retrieval, and
use. Papers may explore improvements to existing systems and interfaces,
propose novel theories, models, and systems, or focus on understanding
individual and group interactions with information and information systems.
As a multi-disciplinary research meeting, we welcome submissions using a
wide range of quantitative and qualitative research methods.

Topics covered include but are not limited to:

   -

   Information seeking, including task-based and exploratory studies
   -

   Search interfaces, including those for specialized tasks, populations
   and domains
   -

   User-centered design approaches to humans interacting with information
   and systems
   -

   Interaction techniques for information retrieval and discovery
   -

   Online information seeking, including log analysis of search and browsing
   -

   Modeling and simulation of information interaction
   -

   Information use, including measures of use as well as broader
   sense-making
   -

   Field and case studies relevant to understanding prerequisites for
   information searching, design and access
   -

   User-centered evaluation methods and measures, including measures of
   user experience and performance, experiment and search task design,
   eye-tracking and neuro-physiological approaches, data analysis methods, and
   usability
   -

   Human interaction and experience with conversational information systems
   -

   Context-aware and personalized search, including design, contextual
   features and analysis of information interaction
   -

   Information visualization and visual analytics, including search result
   presentation
   -

   Collaborative information seeking and social search, including social
   utility and network analysis for information interaction
   -

   Conversational search and other types of stateful and multi-turn
   interactions between users and search applications
   -

   Insights and analyses related to human experiences and usage trends with
   recommendation technologies
   -

   Information interaction and seeking with mobile devices and services
