[iva] [meeting][CFP] SCRITA 2021: The 4th Workshop on Trust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot Interaction

[Alessandra Rossi]

Dear Colleagues,


We are very pleased to invite you to submit your work at the fourth edition
of our workshop on Trust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot
Interaction - SCRITA 2021.

This workshop is held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference
on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN 2021). Both the
workshop and main conference will be held virtually. The Workshop will be
held on August 12th.


Read below further information, and please do not hesitate to contact us if
you have any questions.



Kind regards,

Alessandra Rossi

on behalf of SCRITA Organising Committee

*TARGET AUDIENCE*

We intend to open the workshop to a broad audience, such as researchers and
scientists from social robotics, machine learning and robot behavioural
control, and user-profiling fields. We will be fostering the exchange of
insights on past and ongoing research, and the discussion of innovative
ideas for tackling unresolved issues providing new and inspirational
directions of research. Although the previous editions valued the
participation of leading researchers in the field and several exceptional
invited speakers who identified some of the principal points in this
research direction, current research still presents several limitations.
For this reason, we wish to continue to further explore the role of trust
in robotics to effectively design and develop socially acceptable and
trustable robots.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

   - Impact of Social Cues on Trust in Human-Robot Interaction
   - Measuring Trust in Human-Robot Interaction
   - Robot's Trust in Humans
   - Trust Violation and Recovery Mechanism in HRI
   - Effects of Humans’ Acceptance on Trust of Robots
   - Humans Sense of Control and Trust in Robots
   - Trust and Assistive Robotics
   - Overtrust in Robots
   - Antecedent of Trust and Robot Trust
   - Enhancing Humans Trust in Robots
   - Enhancing Trust in a Robot Companion
   - Privacy Implications on Trust in HRI
   - Mental Models and Trust in HRI
   - Trust and Safety in HRI
   - Ethics Implications on Trust in HRI
   - Trustworthy AI
   - XAI in HRI
   - Legal Frameworks for Trustworthy Robotics

*SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*

We will invite authors to submit two-page abstracts or full papers (up to 6
pages) on original and unpublished research. We will also welcome
submissions of two-page position papers on topics covering the scope of the
workshop. All accepted papers will have oral presentations. We will encourage
authors of the accepted papers to present a video or demonstrate their
works and
achievements.

Authors should submit their papers formatted according to the *IEEE
two-column format*
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php>, which is also
used for contributions to the main conference. Use the following templates
to create the paper and generate or export a PDF file: *LaTeX*
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/tex.php> or *MS-Word*
<http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/word.php>.

Authors will be able to submit a PDF copy through EasyChair
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=scrita2021>. Each paper will
receive at least two reviews. At least one of the authors of the accepted
papers needs to register for the workshop.

All papers are reviewed using a single-blind review process: authors
declare their names and affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to
see, but reviewers do not know each other's identities, nor do the authors
receive information about who has reviewed their manuscript.

Authors of accepted papers will also be invited to publish their works on a
pre-print archive (e.g.  *arXiv* <https://arxiv.org/covid19search>) to
increase the visibility of their work, this Workshop and the whole
Conference.
Authors of the accepted papers will also be invited to a SPECIAL ISSUE of
the International Journal of Social Robotics
<https://link.springer.com/journal/12369> (*confirmed*).
