Call for Papers - 1st ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on Spatiotemporal Causal Analysis (STCausal2024) - October 29, 2024 (Atlanta, GA, USA)
In conjunction with 32nd ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems (ACM SIGSPATIAL 2024)
Workshop Website: https://bdal.umbc.edu/stcausal-2024/
Overview:
We are pleased to announce the 1st International Workshop on Spatiotemporal Causality, to be held in conjunction with the ACM SIGSPATIAL Conference, 2024. The workshop aims to bring together experts, researchers, and practitioners from diverse fields to discuss cutting-edge methodologies, share innovative research, and foster collaborative discussions on the challenges and opportunities in spatiotemporal causal analysis.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:
Causal discovery from temporal, spatial and spatiotemporal data.
Causal inference from temporal, spatial and spatiotemporal data.
Causal representation learning from temporal, spatial and spatiotemporal data.
Deep/machine learning for causality.
Causality for deep/machine learning.
Spatiotemporal causal analysis applications in scientific disciplines (earth science, epidemiology, transportation, urban planning, etc).
Spatiotemporal causal analysis applications in business and public sectors.
Open-source tools and benchmarking datasets demonstrations for spatial causal inference.
Important Dates
Paper Submission: September 1st, 2024
Decision Notification: September 29th, 2024
Camera-Ready Due Date: October 4th, 2024
Workshop Date: October 29th, 2024
All submissions are due at 11:59 pm EDT.
Paper Submission
The workshop seeks high-quality full (8-10 pages) and short (4 pages) papers that have not been published in other academic outlets and are not concurrently under peer review.
Manuscripts should be submitted in PDF format and formatted using the ACM camera-ready templates available at http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. SIGSPATIAL uses the Conference Proceedings Primary Article template with two-column format. Alterations to the template, especially to gain more space, will be grounds for administrative rejection without further technical review. The author list is considered to be final after the submission deadline and no changes to the author list are allowed for accepted papers.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the workshop and present the paper.
