==============================================

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
==================

This workshop aims to bring together researcher and practitioners from a 
range of diverse disciplines to shed light on the various 
interdependencies that exists in the triangle formed by PT (persuasive 
technologies), XAI (AI systems with self-explanation capabilities), and 
IxD (interaction design), with a particular focus on visual interfaces 
and interaction for AI-based persuasive systems. The workshop will 
provide the participants with an opportunity to share their diverse 
perspectives and research coming from their own contributing fields. It 
is part of the The 18th International Conference on Persuasive 
Technology 2023 Conference.


CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
==================

Potential participants are invited to submit short position papers that 
address and highlight their specific interests in the main research 
question of this workshop: How can visual interfaces and interactions be 
used to exploit the self-explanatory capabilities of AI-based persuasive 
systems to support their users?

In addressing this question, the position papers may relate to a range 
of topics and areas of interest, including, but not limited to:

– role of visual explanations in behavior change mechanisms and models.
– explanation-based and/or visual persuasive strategies.
– visual user interfaces and virtual agents for persuasive systems.
– IxD aspects of interventions and visual feedback mechanisms.
– quantitative and qualitative research investigating the effectiveness 
of AI-based persuasive strategies.
– best practices, case studies, and applications of visual interfaces 
and interactions for persuasive systems.

Numbers permitting, the workshop will also be open to other participants 
without an accepted position paper.


WORKSHOP STRUCTURE
==================

This one-day workshop is structured to make it fully participatory, 
practice-oriented and engaging. It comprises two main sessions. The 
morning session will be used for presentations given by the participants 
and an invited speaker. The afternoon will be reserved for group work to 
identify application domains, collect use cases, identify 
domain-specific as well as domain-agnostic commonalities and 
requirements, and exchange experiences on what has worked and what has 
not worked. Based on the analysis we will then compile a set of 
guidelines and recommendations for the design of visual interfaces and 
interactions for AI-based persuasive systems.

We hope to run the workshop in person at the conference. Provisions will 
however be made to run the workshop in remote or hybrid mode if necessary.


SUBMISSIONS
==================

Position papers should generally be short (5-9 pages max), and prepared 
according to the Springer LNCS format 
(https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines).

Submissions should be made through Easychair 
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=viiaips2023).

The workshop organizers will review the submitted position papers, and 
select 10-15 papers for presentation at the workshop based on their 
quality, originality and relevance to the workshop research question and 
topics of interest.

Accepted position papers will be made available to the workshop 
participants. The authors will also have the option of including their 
papers in a post-conference workshop proceedings that will be published 
through CEUR (https://ceur-ws.org/HOWTOSUBMIT.html). Details of this 
option will be made available closer to the workshop by the conference 
organizers.

In addition, through the planned discussion session and group work, the 
workshop will actively seek other potential future outcomes. These may, 
for instance, include a special issue of an international journal and/or 
a co-authored report for dissemination of the workshop results.
