ABSTRACT
Human-Centered AI (HCAI) is an emerging discipline that aims to create AI systems that amplify and augment human abilities and preserve human control in order to make AI partnerships more productive, enjoyable, and fair. Our workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from the NeurIPS and HCI communities and others with convergent interests in HCAI. With an emphasis on diversity and discussion, we will explore research questions that stem from the increasingly wide-spread usage of machine learning algorithms across all areas of society, with a specific focus on understanding both technical and design requirements for HCAI systems, as well as how to evaluate the efficacy and effects of HCAI systems.

Wendy Mackay, Inria; Université Paris-Saclay, France. Dr. Mackay directs the ExSitu research group in HCI at Inria and Université Paris-Saclay. Through study of users who push the limits of interaction and their use patterns regarding complex phenomena, Dr. Mackay explores the future of interactive technologies for creative professionals, with a particular focus on human-AI interaction and collaboration. She is an ACM Fellow and the 2021-22 Computer Science Chair for the Collège de France.

Cynthia Rudin, Duke University, US. Dr. Rudin’s research focuses on machine learning tools that help humans make better decisions, mainly interpretable machine learning and interpretable deep learning with domain-based constraints. She applies these methods to critical societal problems in criminology, healthcare, and energy grid reliability, as well as to computer vision.
