Submission deadline: May 10, 2022
Theme: Parameterized complexity of problems in Logic, AI, and ML.


**********************************************************************************

--------------------------------- AIMS AND SCOPE
---------------------------------

This workshop aims to support a fruitful exchange of ideas between the
research on parameterized complexity (PC) on one side and the research
on problems in computational reasoning (Logic and probabilistic
reasoning), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning (ML) on
the other.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Parameterized complexity of problems in Logic, AI, Computational Social
Choice, and ML.
- Recent developments in PC and the above areas plus introduction of new
problems that might benefit from the PC approach.
- Various (structural) parameteriziations such as decompositions, backdoor
sets, and hybrid parameterizations.
- Theory and practice of parameterized algorithms.

The workshop will feature invited and contributed talks with surveys
and new technical results, an open problem session, and a panel
discussion on future research directions. Apart from talks on
parameterized complexity we are also interested in presentations that
highlight structural parameters that have not been studied within the
framework of parameterized complexity so far.

--------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------------------------

If you would like to give a talk at the workshop, please submit a
short abstract of your talk via Easychair by the submission deadline
in PDF format. The abstract and talk can be based on published or
unpublished results, and we welcome overview and survey talks, besides
regular technical talks. Contributed talks are expected to be around
30 minutes each.

[DMANET] Call for Nominations: The 2022 ACM SIGAI Industry Award for Excellence in Artificial Intelligence

[Sorry for cross posting, please forward to any that may be interested]

Call for Nominations: The 2022 ACM SIGAI Industry Award for Excellence in
Artificial Intelligence

The ACM SIGAI Industry Award for Excellence in Artificial Intelligence (AI)
will be given annually to individuals or teams who have transferred
original academic research into AI applications in recent years in ways
that demonstrate the power of AI techniques via a combination of the
following features: originality of the research novelty and technical
excellence of the approach; importance of AI techniques to the approach;
and actual or predicted societal impact of the application. Awardees
receive a plaque accompanied by a prize of $5,000, and will be recognized
at the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence through an
agreement with the IJCAI Board of Trustees.

After decades of progress in the theory, research and development of AI, AI
applications are increasingly moving into the commercial sector. A great
deal of pioneering application-level work is being done by those
transferring research results into industry—from startups to large
corporations—and this is influencing commerce and the broad public in a
wide variety of ways. This award complements the numerous academic,
best-paper and related awards, in that it focuses on innovators of fielded
AI applications. It is intended especially to recognize those who are not
only active in the academic community, but also playing key roles in AI
commercialization. The award honors these innovators and highlights their
achievements (and thus the benefit of AI techniques) to computing
professionals and the public at large. The award committee will consider
applications that are open-source or proprietary and that may or may not
involve hardware.

Evaluation Criteria: The criteria include the following, but there is no
fixed weighting of them:
Novelty of application area
Novelty and technical excellence of the approach
Importance of AI techniques for the approach
Actual and predicted societal benefits of the fielded application

Eligibility Criteria: Any individual or team, worldwide, is eligible for
the award.

Nomination Procedure: One nomination and three endorsements must be
submitted. The nomination must identify the individual or team members,
describe their fielded AI system, and explain how it addresses the award
criteria. The nomination must be written by a member of ACM SIGAI. Two of
the endorsements must be from members of ACM or ACM SIGAI. Endorsements are
intended to be brief statements of support (typically 1-2 paragraphs and
should not exceed 1000 words) that provide additional perspective on the
nomination itself.

If you are not a member of ACM SIGAI, please join here:
https://sigai.acm.org/main/

Please submit the nomination and endorsements through our Google form:
https://forms.gle/FnHMHuzkQ4EbzYp47


For any questions please contact Craig Boutilier (Award Chair,
cboutilier@google.com) or Nicholas Mattei (SIGAI Vice Chair,
nsmattei@gmail.com).

Blockchains and TEE (trusted execution environments) are popular emerging
\technologies, enabling new or existing use cases to be deployed under stronger
security and trust models. Blockchains and TEEs have been combined in the past to
enhance the performance, security, and applicability for blockchains. In this
workshop, we invite novel combinations of these two technologies. Some of the
topics we are interested in include practical results that show how to combine
these two technologies to operate under stricter security models, offering new
performance results, new proof-of-* systems enabled by TEEs, improvements over
state-of-the-art ledgers exploiting TEEs, mixed or hybrid TEE deployments for
distributed ledgers, or novel partitioning techniques dealing with heterogeneous
TEE setups for blockchains. Real-world results from large-scale deployments
combining TEEs and blockchains are highly encouraged.
