This is an updated CfP because the research papers deadline has been extended by 1 week from March 16th to March 23rd. ******** HILDA 2018 Call for Papers ******** HILDA'18 3rd Workshop on Human-In-the-Loop Data Analytics. http://hilda.io/ Co-located with SIGMOD 2018, Houston Submissions (Research Papers): March 23, 2018, 11.59PM US EDT (previously 16th) Submissions (Abstracts-only): April 6, 2018, 11.59PM US EDT Notification of outcome: April 13, 2018 11.59PM US EDT (before SIGMOD early registration deadline) Camera-ready due: April 27, 2018 11:59PM US EDT Workshop Date: June 10, 2018 **************** WORKSHOP FOCUS **************** HILDA is a workshop that will allow researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and results relating to how data management can be done with awareness of the people who form part of the analytics process, and bridge the gap between traditional data management and human-computer-interaction. Thus, the key focus of HILDA is to evaluate, understand, and formally reason about the participation of humans in data management, with the eventual goal towards building data management systems and techniques that humans as a first-class citizen, alongside data. We welcome work that proposes innovations in design to improve the way people can work with data management systems, just as work that studies empirically how humans work with existing systems. We welcome research from a variety of perspectives: database systems, data mining and machine learning,human-centric computing, interfaces, and visualization, as well as industrial best practices and experience. A sample of topics that are in the spirit of this workshop include, but are not limited to: user-facing query interfaces, visual/user-centric approaches to data management problems, interactive query refinement, data exploration and analysis, data visualization, human-assisted data integration and cleaning, perception-aware data processing, database systems designed for highly interactive use cases, empirical studies of database use, and crowd-powered data infrastructure. HILDA intends to be a forum where people across the database, HCI, visualization, and machine learning communities engage with one another's ideas. We welcome submissions that present initial ideas and visions, just as much as reports on early results, or reflections on completed projects. The workshop will focus on discussion and interaction, rather than static presentations of what is in the paper. Please see http://hilda.io/ for links to the program from previous years. **************** SUBMISSION **************** Authors are invited to submit either of the following: (1) original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum. These will be published in the HILDA proceedings, or (2) abstracts of previous work presented in other venues ideally outside the database community. Abstracts will be considered for discussion at the workshop only and not be included in the HILDA proceedings. Submissions of abstracts must be marked in the title as (Abstract). Research papers must follow the latest ACM Proceedings format (2017). Research papers submitted can be between four and six pages in length, excluding references. Abstracts should be maximally one page long. All submissions will be handled through EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hilda2018 **************** ORGANIZERS & PC **************** Carsten Binnig (TU Darmstadt and Brown University, co-chair) Juliana Freire (New York University, co-chair) Eugene Wu (Columbia University, co-chair) Adriane Chapman, MITRE McLean Anil Bahuman, Reliance Industries Anushka Anand, Tableau Software Beth Trushkowsky, Harvey Mudd College Brian Lim, NUS Singapore Carl-Christian Kanne, Platfora Carlos Scheidegger, University of Arizona Chris Re, Stanford University Dafna Shahaf, Hebrew University Jerusalem Danyel Fisher, Microsoft Research Dana Groff, MongoDB Dominik Moritz, University of Washington Enrico Bertini, New York University Giorgio Caviglia, Trifacta Inc Guoliang Li, Tsinghua University Harish Doraiswamy, NYU Data Science Center James Terwilliger, Microsoft Research Jessica Hullman, University of Washington Leilani Battle, Univeristy of Maryland, College Park Martin Kersten, CWI Olga Papemmanouil, Brandeis University Oliver Kennedy, University at Buffalo Patrick Olivier, Newcastle University Remco Chang, Tufts University Rick Cole, Tableau Software Stratos Idreos, Harvard University Thibault Sellam, Columbia University Tim Kraska, Brown University Tiziana Catarci, Sapienza Universit di Roma Yunyao Li, IBM Research
