This award will support student attendance at the 2023 version of the Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI) conference to be held in Sydney, Australia. IUI is the main international conference where researchers in human computer interaction (HCI) and artificial intelligence (AI) present work on systems that use AI to help people be more effective in interacting with computers. IUI research spans a wide range of socially important topics and domains, including recommender systems, adaptive educational systems, accessibility, autonomous systems, creativity, virtual agents, and many others. Providing travel funding that allows junior researchers to present their own work and be enriched by others' work will strengthen the IUI community and provide valuable benefits for the students involved. The funding will support around 12 students, some in person and some virtually, to attend the conference. Most of these students will also attend a Doctoral Consortium at which later-stage PhD students will present and get feedback on their dissertation research from both senior researchers and other PhD students in the IUI community. The availability of travel funding will be widely announced in the relevant communities, with students being invited to submit applications describing their doctoral work. These applications will be reviewed by a program committee that gives substantive feedback for every application, whether accepted or not. Acceptance decisions will be made with an eye toward topical, institutional, and demographic diversity of participants, while also considering financial need. Chosen students will attend a day-long doctoral consortium, have additional opportunities to meet with individual mentors, and be invited to present in a poster session for the conference.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.

该奖项将支持学生参加将在澳大利亚悉尼举行的2023年版本的智能用户界面（IUI）会议。 IUI是主要的国际会议，人机交互（HCI）和人工智能（AI）的研究人员在会上展示了使用AI帮助人们更有效地与计算机交互的系统的工作。 IUI研究涵盖了广泛的社会重要主题和领域，包括推荐系统，自适应教育系统，可访问性，自治系统，创造力，虚拟代理等。 提供旅行资金，让初级研究人员介绍自己的工作，并通过其他人的工作丰富将加强IUI社区，并为参与的学生提供宝贵的利益。这笔资金将支持大约12名学生参加会议，其中一些人亲自参加，一些人以虚拟方式参加。 这些学生中的大多数还将参加博士联盟，后期博士生将出席并从IUI社区的高级研究人员和其他博士生那里获得他们的论文研究反馈。 旅行资金的可用性将在相关社区广泛公布，并邀请学生提交描述其博士工作的申请。 这些申请将由项目委员会进行审查，该委员会将为每份申请提供实质性反馈，无论是否被接受。 接受决定将着眼于参与者的主题，机构和人口多样性，同时也考虑财务需求。 入选的学生将参加为期一天的博士生联盟，有额外的机会与个别导师见面，并被邀请出席会议的海报会议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
