We are now accepting submissions for the International Workshop on Diversity-Aware Artificial Intelligence (DIVERSITY 2016) at ECAI 2016, sponsored by SmartSociety and ESSENCE.

The workshop seeks to explore diversity as a phenomenon that both poses a challenge for AI in terms of dealing with and managing diversity in an intelligent system (or ecosystem of intelligent human and/or artificial agents) and presents an opportunity in terms of leveraging diversity (for example through processes like crowdsourcing and collaborative knowledge production) to achieve human-like (and human-friendly) capabilities in more open-ended, incrementally evolving, and interactive AI systems. For more details, please see the original announcement, here.
