The summer school will is titled <strong><em>Fairness, Accountability, Transparency and Ethics (FATE) in AI.<\/em><\/strong> The aim is to cover topics related to AI systems and promote the multidisciplinarity of FATE, with an emphasis on human-centered AI. Participants will benefit from understanding the diverse perspectives of others involved in the above topics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The FATE in AI Summer School is targeting Postgraduate students at Masters and PhD levels, and early career postdoctoral researchers. The disciplines of the students and researchers we are aiming to attract are the following:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Human Computer Interaction<\/li>\n<li>Data Science<\/li>\n<li>Information Systems<\/li>\n<li>Cognitive Systems<\/li>\n<li>Computer Science<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The aim is for the participants to be exposed to the issues of FATE in AI from different angles e.g.\u00a0\u00a0from the developer\u2019s point of view, or that of the data scientist, user interface and interaction designer etc., as well as the ethical implications of their decisions when designing, developing, or auditing an AI system or tool. This will provide the participants the opportunity to have a more holistic idea of where biases might occur during the process of developing an intelligent system and deploying it for use. Aligned with the ACM principles for Algorithmic Transparency and Accountability, and ACM Code of Ethics, this summer school aims to support the benefits of AI systems while examining the issues that accompany their opaqueness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The goal of the FATE in AI Summer School is to bring people into a holistic environment, with participants, as well as speakers, coming from different disciplines, allowing them to get a different perspective than the one they hold, which will result in new insights on the topics of FATE. Our objective is to educate participants, broaden their knowledge and emphasize the importance of FATE topics by gaining the experience and creating resources for providing awareness. The knowledge participants\u2019 gained will be demonstrated through the hands-on activities and final projects they will be working on throughout the summer school and especially at the last day\u2019s presentations. In addition, since CyCAT and RISE LTD are organizing a number of workshops and other research related events, the best projects will be invited to present their work at those events, to maximize the impact of the summer school.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993300; text-decoration: underline;\">Local Organization<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||40px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||8px||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993300; text-decoration: underline;\">Important Dates<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||6px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||41px||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h5>Summer school dates: <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">31\/8\/2020 &#8211; 04\/9\/2020<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||6px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||41px||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h5>Register by: TBA<\/h5>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||4px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||1px|48px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||47px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||0px||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993300; text-decoration: underline;\">Organizers<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/cycat2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/CYCAT-LOGO-F-CMYK-LANDSCAPE-1.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; width=&#8221;81%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-21px||-54px|39px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||0px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/cycat2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Logo-OUC.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; width=&#8221;74%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;106px|||55px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||12px|5px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||43px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||48px|false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993300; text-decoration: underline;\">Supporter<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/cycat2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/sigchi-4c-logo.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; width=&#8221;72%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|||48px|false|false&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||4px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||1px|48px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||47px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px|||0px||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993300; text-decoration: underline;\">Latest News<br \/><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;20px|||||&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-38px|auto||auto||&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243;][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Jahna Otterbacher&#8221; image=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/cycat2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/jahna.jpg&#8221; image_max_width=&#8221;82%&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.26.4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||-2px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"events-box-content-cycat orangecycat\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Open University of Cyprus<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"color: #8f8f8f; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; font-style: italic;\">Information Retrieval, Human-Computer Interaction, Artificial Intelligence<\/p>\n<p class=\"events-box-content-cycat\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jahna Otterbacher holds a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, USA is an Assistant Professor at the Open University of Cyprus (OUC), Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences.
