Call for papers
We solicit submissions across the entire spectrum of the application of AI techniques to RE. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- RE quality models and their automation
- Natural language processing and comprehension
- Natural language semantics, understanding and generation
- Machine learning techniques including supervised, unsupervised, and machine-human interactions
- Artificial neural networks, deep learning
- Detection of uncertainties and ambiguities
- Logic-based reasoning techniques
- Knowledge acquisition and representation
- Agent based solutions
- Problem solving and decision making support mechanisms
- Optimization techniques
- Automated approaches for prioritization
- RE for machine-learning based systems
- RE to support explainable AI
- RE and AI-based safety critical systems
The following types of papers are possible (page limits include references):
Research Papers
Short: max 4 pages; long: max. 7 to 10 pages (including references). These papers should describe ongoing research within the entire spectrum of AI and RE, and can describe either a new technical solution or an empirical evaluation. Short papers present preliminary work or research previews, while long papers present more advanced, yet ongoing, studies.
Position Papers
Max 4 pages. These papers serve to foster discussion on hot, relevant topics in the field.
Demo Papers
Max 2 pages, plus 2 pages for screenshots. These papers describe a novel tool for AI and RE, and describe a plan for demonstrating the tool at the workshop.
Poster Papers
Max 2 pages. These papers can cover any topic within the scope of the workshop and should present progress towards a scientific result. These papers will be presented in a poster session.
Conference-first Extended Abstracts
Max 1 page. These contributions present extended abstract of papers that were presented in recent conferences, other than IEEE RE and co-located events, and that fit AIRE themes. The goal of these contributions is to give the authors the opportunity to further publicise AIRE-related papers that did not have sufficient diffusion within the community, or that present particularly relevant techniques or results.
Formatting and Submission Guidelines
Submissions must be written in English and formatted according to the IEEE formatting instructions. All submissions must be in PDF format. Also, please note that for AIRE the maximun limit page is 10 pages including references.
