WORKSHOP: Graduate Student Consortium at the 2019 ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces

这笔资金将为来自美国大学的多达15名研究生提供全部或部分财政支持沿着教师导师参加将于3月16日至20日在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶举行的2019年ACM智能用户界面国际会议（IUI 2019），并参加将于3月20日与其他研讨会同时举行的全天学生联盟。 一年一度的IUI会议代表了人们对下一代智能交互式用户界面日益增长的兴趣。 吸引200-300与会者，他们是首屈一指的论坛，来自世界各地的学术界和工业界的研究人员谁在人机交互（HCI）和人工智能（AI）的交叉工作走到一起，交流见解，并提出优秀的研究和应用程序，其目标是使计算机化的世界更适合的地方。 与传统人工智能不同，重点不是让计算机本身变得智能，而是让计算机与人之间的交互变得更智能;与传统人机交互不同，重点是涉及大量知识和新兴技术的解决方案，例如自然语言理解、脑机接口和手势识别。 为此，IUI不仅鼓励计算机科学的贡献，还鼓励相关领域的贡献，如心理学，行为科学，认知科学，计算机图形学，设计，艺术等。 它将加强受资助的参与者的教育经验，使他们与该领域的主要研究人员接触，并使他们在会议期间参加热烈的讨论，这往往会带来专业发展的机会。 由于与会机构基础的扩大和与会者的多样化，会议本身的质量也将得到提高。 IUI丰富的思想交流已被证明是未来研究的宝贵思想来源，并导致合作努力;这笔资金将扩大合作的机会，并为以前很少或根本没有代表参加这次会议的计划提供智力刺激。 组织委员会已承诺积极从传统上在IUI社区中没有很好代表的学校招募学生参与者。 将特别鼓励代表性不足群体的妇女和学生参加。IUI 2019学生联盟将建立在以前此类活动的成功基础上。 该联盟的核心将是3月20日的全天研讨会。 学生学员将通过对他们的工作进行20-30次演讲，并接受同行和高级研究人员小组的反馈，接触他们新的研究社区。 该活动将包括学生与同龄人和导师进行讨论的机会，这将加强社区建设。学生们的工作也将在主会议期间以海报会议的形式展示，在那里他们将获得额外的经验，向该领域的其他人解释他们的工作。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。

This is funding to provide full or partial financial support for up to 15 graduate students from U.S. universities along with faculty mentors to attend the 2019 ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2019), to be held March 16-20 in Los Angeles, CA and to participate in a full-day Student Consortium that will be held on March 20 in parallel with the other workshops. The annual IUI conferences represent the growing interest in next-generation intelligent interactive user interfaces. Attracting 200-300 attendees, they are the premier forum where researchers from academia and industry worldwide who work at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) come together to exchange insights and to present outstanding research and applications whose goal is to make the computerized world a more amenable place. Unlike traditional AI the focus is not so much on making the computer smart all by itself, but rather on making the interaction between computers and people smarter; and unlike traditional HCI, there is a focus on solutions that involve large amounts of knowledge and emerging technologies such as natural language understanding, brain-computer interfaces, and gesture recognition. To this end, IUI encourages contributions not only from computer science but also from related fields such as psychology, behavioral science, cognitive science, computer graphics, design, the arts, etc. This funding will enable attendance at the IUI conference by students who might otherwise be unable to do so for financial reasons. It will enhance the educational experience of funded participants, by bringing them into contact with leading researchers in the field and by exposing them to the lively discussion during the course of the conference that often leads to opportunities for professional development. The quality of the conference itself will be enhanced as well, thanks to a broadening of the base of institutions represented and increased diversity of participants. The rich exchange of ideas at IUI has previously proven to be a valuable source of ideas for future research, as well as leading to collaborative efforts; this funding will extend the opportunities for collaboration and provide intellectual stimulus to programs that have previously sent few or no representatives to this conference. The organizing committee has undertaken to proactively recruit student participants from schools that have not traditionally been well represented in the IUI community. Women and students who are members of underrepresented groups will be particularly encouraged to participate. The IUI 2019 Student Consortium will build on the success of previous such events. The heart of the Consortium will be a full-day workshop on March 20. Student trainees will be afforded exposure to their new research community by giving a 20-30 presentation on their work and receiving feedback from peers and a panel of senior researchers. The event will include opportunities for students to engage in discussion with peers and mentors, which will enhance community building. The students' work will also be featured during the main conference in a poster session, where they will gain additional experience explaining their work to others in the field.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.
