<b>Call for Participation:</b> Machine Learning from User Interactions (MLUI) Workshop at IEEE VIS 2021<br><br>The
Machine Learning from User Interactions (MLUI) workshop is back for a
4th year. In this workshop, we seek to bring together researchers to
share their knowledge and build collaborations at the intersection of
the Machine Learning and Visualization fields, with a focus on learning
from user interaction. Rather than focusing on what visualization can do
to support machine learning (as in current Explainable AI research),
this workshop seeks contributions on <b>how machine learning can support visualization</b>.
Such support incorporates human-centric sensemaking processes,
user-driven analytical systems, and gaining insight from data. Our
intention in this workshop is to generate open discussion about how we
currently learn from user interaction, how to build intelligent
visualization systems, and how to proceed with future research in this
area. We hope to foster discussion regarding systems, interaction
models, and interaction techniques. MLUI 2021 largely plans to continue
the momentum in this research area that the previous workshops have
initiated.<br><br>This year, we plan to accept both short and long
papers jointly in the same submission block. Full papers have a length
of 5-10 pages (not including references), while short papers are 2-4
pages (plus references). Short papers are intended to capture either (1)
limited aspects of a larger work that fit our call or (2) late-breaking
work not yet mature enough for a full paper submission. The option of
submitting a short paper replaces the posters track that we previously
offered at MLUI.<br><br>Submissions will be reviewed by a committee of
reviewers that we will organize. This committee will include the
workshop committee members. The size of the committee will be determined
by the number of submissions, such that each submission is reviewed by
at least 2 committee members. Both full and short paper metadata (author
information, title, university, etc.) as well as the submissions
themselves will be posted to the workshop website in advance of the
event. Workshop papers will be archived on IEEE Xplore following the
conference.<br><br><b>Website:</b> <a href="https://learningfromusersworkshop.github.io/" target="_blank">https://learningfromusersworkshop.github.io/</a><br><b>Submission deadline:</b> July 30, 2021<br><b>Author notification:</b> August 15, 2021<br><b>Workshop dates:</b> TBD, held with IEEE VIS (October 24-29, 2021)
