Abstract

The aim of SCAI@ICTIR2017 is to bring together IR and AI communities to instigate future direction of search-oriented conversational systems. We identified the number of research areas related to conversational AI which is of actual interest to both communities and which have not been fully explored yet. We think it's beneficial to exchange our visions. We solicit the paper submissions and more importantly proposals for panel discussions where researchers can exchange opinions and experiences. We believe that the proposed workshop is relevant to ICTIR since we look for novel contributions to search-oriented conversational systems which are a new and promising area.
