WORKSHOP: Human-Computer Interaction Doctoral Research Consortium at ACM CHI 2018

这笔资金用于部分支持一个由大约20名有前途的研究生组成的博士研究联盟(DC)研讨会，以及一个由6名来自学术界和工业界的杰出研究人员组成的小组。除了评审团成员外，该奖项还将资助来自美国教育机构的8名学生。该活动将于4月21日至22日与ACM 2018计算系统中人的因素会议(CHI 2018)一起举行，该会议由计算机械协会的人机交互特别兴趣小组(SIGCHI)主办，将于4月21-26日在加拿大蒙特利尔举行。一年一度的CHI会议是介绍和讨论人机交互(HCI)研究和实践的领先国际论坛，来自世界各地的约3,000名人机交互专业人员参加了会议。发表在CHI会议论文集和CHI扩展摘要上的研究报告被大量引用和广泛引用；它们是人机界面领域最受科学尊重和最具影响力的研究出版物之一。有关今年会议的更多信息，请访问https://chi2018.acm.org/.，该会议的主题是“与CHI接触”一年一度的CHI博士联盟传统上聚集了下一代人机界面研究人员中最优秀的人，使他们能够在自己之间以及与处于专业发展关键阶段的高级研究人员建立一个社交网络。鼓励所有研究与人机交互相关的博士生申请，无论他们在哪个领域获得学位。为了增加活动的广泛影响，组织者致力于多样性。由于时间问题，2018年的学生参与者已经选定；共有来自世界10个不同国家的20名学生(9名女性和11名男性)，他们代表了广泛的主题领域和背景；此外，任何特定机构都不超过一名学生被录取。博士联盟是一个专注于研究的会议，自1986年以来每年在CHI会议上举行，并帮助启动了许多优秀的人机界面研究人员的职业生涯。2018年财团将于4月21日至22日举行，为期两天。研讨会的目标包括建立一个新研究人员群体，他们将拥有一个遍布世界各地的同事网络，通过让该领域的专家为新研究人员提供建议来指导他们的工作，并使有前途的新进入该领域的人能够参加他们的研究会议。今年的DC将采用2017年实施的成功时间表，即小组分成3-4名学生与一名教职员工组成的小组。每个学生参与者将有大约20分钟的时间来就他或她的博士研究进行正式陈述，并从教员小组成员和其他学生参与者那里获得反馈。这些反馈将是建设性的，旨在帮助学生理解和阐明他们的工作相对于其他人机界面研究的定位，他们的主题是否足够集中于论文研究项目，他们的方法是否得到正确的选择和应用，以及他们的结果是否得到适当的分析和展示。后续活动，包括两次海报会议，计划在4月23-26日的大会技术节目期间进行。学生工作的扩展摘要将发表在CHI 2018扩展摘要中。SIGCHI的会议管理委员会将对博士研究联盟进行评估，结果将提供给未来联盟的组织者。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This is funding to partially support a Doctoral Research Consortium (DC) workshop of about 20 promising graduate students along with a panel of 6 distinguished researchers from academia and industry. This award will support just the 8 students from U.S.-based educational institutions in addition to the panelists. The event will take place on April 21-22 in conjunction with the ACM 2018 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2018) sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Human-Computer Interaction (SIGCHI), which will be held April 21-26 in Montreal, Canada. The annual CHI conferences are the leading international forum for the presentation and discussion of human-computer interaction (HCI) research and practice, and they are attended by approximately 3,000 HCI professionals from around the world. Research reports published in the CHI Conference Proceedings and the CHI Extended Abstracts are heavily-refereed and widely cited; they are among the most scientifically respected and impactful research publications in the field of HCI. More information about this year's conference, whose theme is "Engage with CHI", is available online at https://chi2018.acm.org/. The annual CHI doctoral consortia traditionally bring together the best of the next generation of HCI researchers, allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development. Applications are encouraged from all doctoral students whose research is HCI-related, regardless of the fields in which they are earning their degrees. To increase the broad impact of the event, the organizers are committed to diversity. Due to timing issues, the student participants for 2018 have already been selected; there are a total of 20 students (9 females and 11 males) from 10 different countries around the world, who represent a wide range of topic areas and backgrounds; in addition, no more than one student was accepted from any given institution.The Doctoral Consortium is a research-focused meeting that has taken place annually at the CHI conference since 1986, and has helped to launch the careers of many outstanding HCI researchers. The 2018 Consortium will be a 2-day long event on April 21-22. Goals of the workshop include building a cohort group of new researchers who will have a network of colleagues spread out across the world, guiding the work of new researchers by having experts in the field give them advice, and making it possible for promising new entrants to the field to attend their research conference. This year's DC will adopt the successful schedule implemented in 2017, where the group breaks into clusters of 3-4 students paired with one faculty panelist. Each student participant will have a time slot of approximately 20 minutes in which to make a formal presentation about his or her doctoral research and to receive feedback both from the faculty panelist and the other student participants. The feedback will be constructive and geared to help the students understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other HCI research, whether their topics are adequately focused for thesis research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, and whether their results are appropriately analyzed and presented. Follow up activities, including two poster sessions, are planned during the technical program of the conference on April 23-26. Extended abstracts of the students' work will be published in the CHI 2018 Extended Abstracts. SIGCHI's conference management committee will evaluate the doctoral research consortium, and the results will be made available to the organizers of future consortia.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
