================================================
The organizing committee of the 13th International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction (ACII) 2025 invites proposals for tutorials.
ACII is the premier venue for interdisciplinary research on the design of systems that can recognize, interpret, and simulate human emotions and, more generally, affective phenomena. ACII 2025 will be held in person at the Hotel Realm conference venue in Canberra, Australia. Workshops, tutorials, and the doctoral consortium will be held on 11 October, 2025. The main conference will be on 8-10 October, 2025.

CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS
================================
We welcome tutorial proposals which cover topics related to the ACII 2025 theme in introductory or advanced levels to complement the conference’s program. For ACII 2025 our theme is titled  “Socially Responsible Affective Computing”. The goal is to ensure robust data privacy, clear ethical guidelines, and regulations around the use of emotional data. Additionally, to improve the transparency, accountability, and mitigating biases in affective computing systems. As such, we encourage tutorials that support responsible and transparent affective computing research and application.

The tutorials can be organized as either half-day (preferred) or full-day events and will
take place at the same venue as the main conference. The full instructions for submitting tutorial proposals can be found at: https://acii-conf.net/2025/calls/tutorials
