HI stands for combining human and machine intelligence as a team in various scenarios, aiming to benefit from the complementary powers of both components in solving problems.</div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);">Developing such systems requires fundamentally novel solutions to major research problems in AI: current AI systems outperform humans in many cognitive tasks e.g., in pattern recognition or in playing video games, yet they fall short when it comes to tasks such as causal modelling, common sense reasoning, and behavioural human capabilities such as explaining its own decisions, adapting to different environments, adaptability to multiple contexts, collaborating with other human agents, etc. A particular challenge in developing such systems is to work with human input (high-level symbolic constraints or behavioural data).<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);">Knowledge representation (KR) as a sub-discipline of AI, deals with representing background knowledge and reasoning with symbolic constraints. KR has a key potential for contributing to the development of HI systems, because it naturally brings human understanding and the formal semantics (the understanding of machine) together. With this idea in mind, we welcome a wide array of works that use a KR formalism (or develop one) in an HI scenario. These works can range from purely theoretical to applied, or from purely symbolic to neural-symbolic ones, e.g., “learning systems which consider human demonstrations and symbolic constraints into account” to “explainable AI systems that generate symbolic explanations for humans” or can be in the context of socio-technical systems in which hybrid intelligence inherently falls under.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35); min-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><br class=""></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><br class=""></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">THEME OF SUBMISSION</span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(78, 75, 35);">The workshop has an interdisciplinary theme and is intended to welcome any work from any discipline which uses a KR formalism in a HI scenario.
