AIMLAI@CIKM2022: International Workshop on Advances in Interpretable Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
We invite researchers working on interpretability and explainability in ML/AI, and related topics, to submit regular (8 pages, single column) or short (3 pages, single column) papers to the AIMLAI workshop that will be held at CIKM 2022.

Submission deadline: August 15, 2022
The purpose of AIMLAI (Advances in Interpretable Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence) is to encourage principled research that will lead to the advancement of explainable, transparent, ethical and fair data mining, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. AIMLAI is a workshop that seeks top-quality submissions addressing uncovered important issues related to explainable and interpretable data mining and machine learning models. Papers should present novel research results in any of the topics of interest for the workshop as well as application experiences, tools and promising preliminary ideas. AIMLAI asks for contributions from researchers, academia and industry, working on topics addressing these challenges primarily from a technical point of view, but also from a legal, ethical or sociological perspective. Besides the central topic of interpretable algorithms and explanation methods, we also welcome submissions that answer research questions like "how to measure and evaluate interpretability and explainability?" and "how to integrate humans in the machine learning pipeline for interpretability purposes?". This year's edition of AIMLAI is open to two kinds of submissions: regular papers (6 pages, double column) and extended abstracts (2 pages, double column).
A non-exhaustive list of topics that are of interest for AIMLAI are the following:
* Interpretable ML
* Supervised and Unsupervised ML
* Explaining recommendation models
* Multimodal explanations
* Transparency in AI and ML
* Ethical aspects
* Legal aspects
* Fairness issues
* Methodology and formalization of interpretability
* Formal measures of interpretability
* Interpretability/complexity trade-offs
* How to evaluate interpretability
* User-centric interpretability
* Explanation modules
* Interpretability and Semantics: how to add semantics to explanations?
* Human-in-the-loop to construct and/or evaluate interpretable models
* Integration of ML algorithms, infovis and man-machine interfaces
- Submission Guidelines
Papers must be written in English and formatted according to the ACM sigconf template. Regular papers must be 6 pages long maximum. Extended abstracts are restricted to a maximum of 2 pages. Overlength papers will be rejected without review (papers with smaller page margins and font sizes than specified in the author instructions and set in the style files will also be treated as overlength).
Authors who submit their work to AIMLAI 2022 commit themselves to present their paper at the workshop in case of acceptance. AIMLAI 2022 considers the author list submitted with the paper as final. No additions or deletions to this list may be made after paper submission, either during the review period, or in case of acceptance, at the final camera ready stage.
Condition for inclusion in the post-proceedings is that at least one of the co-authors has (in-person or virtually) presented the paper at the workshop.
All papers for AIMLAI 2022 must be submitted by using the online submission system at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aimlaicikm22.
