Artificial and Human Intelligence
— Formal and Cognitive Foundations for Human-Centred Computing


As part of:
European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 2020)
Santiago de Compostela, Spain - June 8-12 2020

/  ABOUT THE WORKSHOP  /

Artificial and Human Intelligence research addresses the formal & cognitive foundations for human-centred computing, and the human-centred design, development, and usability of cognitive technologies aimed at human-in-the-loop assistance & empowerment in decision-making, planning, creative-technical problem-solving, and automation. The workshop features invited and contributed research advancing the formal and cognitive foundations of human-centred computing particularly from the viewpoints of theories and methods developed within the fields of:

—  Artificial Intelligence
—  Cognitive Science - Psychology
—  Cognitive Neuroscience
—  Visuospatial Cognition and Computation
—  Human-Computer Interaction
—  Design Science - Design Cognition


The principal emphasis of the workshop is on:

(a). the formal and computational foundations of AI and Cognitive Technologies with a principal emphasis on human-centred knowledge representation, semantics, commonsense reasoning, integration of reasoning & learning, and visuospatial representation and reasoning. A particular focus is on integrated commonsense reasoning & learning about space and motion in human-scale embodied multimodal interaction.

(b). behavioural / empirical methods in cognitive science & psychology and neuroscience aimed at investigating human intelligence from the viewpoints of embodiment, multimodal interaction, and visuospatial thinking. A special emphasis of the workshop is on visuospatial cognition and computation, e.g., in the backdrop of aspects pertaining to visual perception, high-level event perception, motion, and narrative-driven perceptual sensemaking.


Particular themes of high interest solicited by the workshop include:

—  knowledge representation - semantics - commonsense - declarative methods
—  semantic interpretation of multimodal human behaviour data
—  integration of reasoning and learning - explainability - neurosymbolism
—  synergy of computational and behavioural / empirical methods
—  data-centred methods for psychology - psychology-driven AI - ``in the wild'' naturalistic experimentation
—  embodiment - visuospatial thinking - motion & interaction - visuospatial perception and cognition
—  design science - design cognition and computation - designing embodied cognitive experiences

The workshop emphasises:

(i).  ``In-the-wild'' ecologically valid naturalistic (embodied multimodal interaction) settings;
(ii).  Bottom-up interdisciplinarity, e.g., combining methods in AI and cognitive psychology; and
(iii). Design-thinking as a human-centred perspective for engineering (``usable'') cognitive technologies aiming to assist, empower, and augment human capability.

We welcome contributions addressing the workshop themes from formal, cognitive, computational, engineering, empirical, psychological, and philosophical perspectives.
