Workshop Goal: The workshop aims to gather researchers in the fields of speech technology, dialogue systems, and human-robot interaction to discuss the challenges of creating interactive agents that can take their environment, context and own embodiment into account to make the interactions with their users natural and convincing. While it is already challenging to deploy embodied agents for spoken interactions in the real world, the addition of a dynamically evolving context during the interaction makes the complexity of this task even higher. As these types of interactions can fail or succeed in many different ways, it is important to bring different fields together to share experiences in addressing this research path. In particular, communities with a history of research on spoken dialogue systems, conversation analysis, and conversational user interfaces can help provide a common ground on the notion of context-awareness and how it could be developed for robotics and human-robot interaction. How to participate: We welcome papers that are maximum 4 pages in length, excluding references (if necessary, figures can be included in an appendix). All papers are reviewed using a single-blind review process and authors should use the templates provided by the RO-MAN conference and follow the format specified there. Authors should submit their papers electronically, in PDF format, via the EasyChair submission site. Potential topics for the workshop: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Position papers on context and domain in HRI - Studies of the effects of context-awareness in HRI - Analyses of how robot embodiment affects domain & context - Multimodal fusion for communicative modalities - Descriptions/demonstrations of adaptive speech dialogue systems - Empirical studies that demonstrate how interactions evolve situated contexts - In-the-wild HRI studies on evolving situated contexts Important Information and Dates Submission deadline: June 9th, 2023 (AOE) Notification of acceptance: June 30th, 2023 Workshop date: August 31st, 2023 Location: Busan, South Korea/hybrid, as part of the International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN 2023) See workshop website for details: https://www.mpcosin.com/home Organizers Ronald Cumbal (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) Agnes Axelsson (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) Hannah Pelikan (Link?ping University) Divesh Lala (Kyoto University) Merle Reimann (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) Felix Gervits (DEVCOM US Army Research Laboratory) Olov Engwall (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) Please don?t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about the workshop!

Two main questions we would like to discuss are: 1. Methodological challenges for EMCAI: How does EM/CA deal methodologically with technology? 2. Analytical challenges for EMCAI: What is interaction (with a machine)? How do we deal with hybrid approaches and incommensurability between disciplines? We have formulated hopefully thought-provoking sub questions to stimulate discussion, regarding among other things the position of experimental/semi-elicited data, the issue of rapidly changing technology, our potential involvement in design/programming the technology we study, and what we consider part of the category of interactionally competent machine. At the start of the meeting we will give a short refresher on potentially relevant points made during the previous meetings, to situate the discussion and help new members and those of us that could not attend (all) prior meetings take part in the discussion. On a general note, if you?d like to do a show-and-tell in the future please add your name to the show-and-tell schedule (at the top of the meeting minutes document). Once we have 3-4 presenters we will schedule the next show-and-tell meeting, which will take place after the summer break. And for new(er) members, if you have not done so already you can introduce yourself on these slides. See you Friday hopefully!
