*** Scope: ***
We are pleased to announce that the International Autumn School on 
Situation Awareness in Cognitive Technologies (ISACT 2022) will be held 
from November 16 to 19, 2022 in Orlando, Florida, USA, in a hybrid 
fashion, in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on 
Human-Machine Systems (ICHMS 2022).

Situation Awareness in Cognitive Technologies is a trending research 
direction that gained a lot of interest from the industry in recent 
years. Situation awareness is the key to providing the best possible 
user experience and supplying the user with the most relevant content - 
by establishing a grounded assessment of interactions, actions, etc., 
based on the environmental elements and corresponding events. With the 
astonishing development of the field of machine learning, especially of 
deep learning, one of the important aspects of the situation awareness 
of the machine learning models is by means of explainability. Therefore, 
this autumn school this autumn aims to present the fundamental aspects 
of situation awareness in cognitive technologies, which can be discussed 
in an interdisciplinary context, and will mainly be focusing on 
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) and 
Explainable AI (XAI). Going with the theme of this year’s ICHMS 2022, 
the school will also be focusing on the topic of “human-autonomy 
teaming” in different areas – robotics, industry 4.0, autonomous 
driving, even medicine. To make this school an interactive learning 
experience, we would encourage the participants to share their research 
presentations (posters) related to the above-mentioned topics

This year’s edition intends to bring together academia and industry to 
provide a large practical perspective to undergraduate and graduate 
(including early-stage PhD) students, as well as to young industry 
personnel. Attendees will be able to extend their knowledge in both 
theoretical and practical aspects of:
   - Situation Awareness
   - Brain-Computer Interaction
   - Human-Computer Interaction
   - Explainable AI

The International Autumn School on Situation Awareness in Cognitive 
Technologies 2022 will be held from November 16 to 19, 2022 in Orlando, 
FL, USA, in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on 
Human-Machine Systems (ICHMS 2022). It is going to be a great 
opportunity to learn about new technologies, meet fellow 
students/employees, discuss ideas with experts, participate in an 
international conference and simply have a splendid time in the city of 
Orlando!
