Description
Research in AI promises to bring huge advances in all aspects of human life, from groundbreaking discoveries in medicine and self-driving cars to the arts. However, it also raises serious ethical concerns.
The goal of the ReAI workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners in the broad area of responsible AI to discuss recent advancements and future perspectives of this rapidly changing field. Special emphasis will be placed on how Greece is tackling these challenges aiming at fostering a community on the topic of responsible AI.
The workshop will focus on the foundations, principles, and practices of responsibly developing and deploying AI systems, addressing issues of fair and unbiased use, transparency, explainability, respect for human autonomy, privacy, accountability, safety and trustworthiness.
Besides covering technical aspects, the workshop will also provide a broader interdisciplinary perspective by including legal, social, and ethical perspectives, aiming to provide participants with a well-rounded understanding of the implications and considerations surrounding AI beyond just its technical implementation.
Topics include but are not limited to
- Bias and fairness in AI systems
- Transparency, interpretability and explainability (XAI)
- AI regulations
- Privacy and accountability
- Use cases
Submission Guidelines
We welcome submissions reporting both mature and on-going research as well as position and vision papers.
Submissions may be of of two types:
- full papers (6-10 pages)
- short papers (2-4 pages)
and should report original work.
Each paper will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee on the basis of technical quality, relevance to the topics of the workshop, originality, novelty, significance, and clarity. The review process will be double-blind, so authors should not reveal their identities.

Attendance and proceedings
To encourage interactions, we will have both longer and flash/pitch-like presentations.
At least one of the authors of each workshop paper must complete a full conference registration and deliver an on-site presentation during the workshop
All accepted Research Track papers will be included in the Conference Proceedings, which will be published by ACM (International Conference Proceedings Series) and be available through the ACM Digital Library (approval pending).
