There’s only one month left to submit papers to the 2019 ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (FAT*), an interdisciplinary conference to connect social, technical and policy domains around broad questions of fairness, accountability and transparency of computing systems, held in Atlanta, Georgia in late January (Jan 29-31, subject to final confirmation).
<br>
<br>Calls are out for:
<br>
<br>• papers (deadline: abstracts Aug 16, full papers Aug 23);
<br>• tutorials on application, implementation, translation, and hands-on learning (deadline: 13 Sep).
<br>
<br>In addition, there will be a interdisciplinary doctoral symposium, with later deadlines and specifications to be announced.
<br>
<br>== Papers ==
<br>
<br>The conference this year features dedicated tracks for work on or building bridges between:
<br>
<br>- Theory and Security
<br>
<br>- Statistics, Machine Learning, Data Mining
<br>
<br>- Applications (NLP, Computer Vision, Search Engines, and other Systems)
<br>
<br>- Systems (Programming Languages, Databases)
<br>
<br>- Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Information Visualization
<br>
<br>- Measurement and Algorithm Audits
<br>
<br>- Empirical Studies (Qualitative, Quantitative, Experimental, Etc.)
<br>
<br>- Law, Policy, and Humanistic/Critical Analysis
<br>
<br>Papers (8-10 pages, due August 23, abstract pre-registration August 16) are double-blind peer reviewed and published in conference proceedings in the ACM Digital Library. Authors can also opt for non-archival submission, subject to the same review process but only appearing as an abstract in the proceedings.
<br>
<br>The inaugural conference at NYU in February 2018 had an acceptance rate of 25% and was sold-out, with 450 international attendees from across academia, industry and public policy.

<br>
<br>== Tutorials ==
<br>
<br>We are soliciting three types of tutorials for FAT* 2019: hands-on tutorials, translation tutorials, and implications tutorials. Presenters will have 45 or 90 minutes for translation and implication tutorials, and 90 or 180 minutes for hands-on tutorials to address technical and/or policy/law aspects of FAT* issues for a broad audience. These will be held the day before the main conference.
<br>
<br>Tutorial submission and more information: https://fatconference.org/2019/cftutorials.html
<br>
<br>
<br>Please forward this call to other people or groups you think may be interested.
