This award will support student attendance at the 2024 version of the Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI) conference to be held in Greenville, South Carolina. IUI is the main international conference where researchers in human computer interaction (HCI) and artificial intelligence (AI) present work on systems that use AI to help people be more effective in interacting with computers. IUI research spans a wide range of socially important topics and domains, including recommender systems, adaptive educational systems, accessibility, autonomous systems, creativity, virtual agents, and many others. Providing travel funding that allows junior researchers to present their own work and be enriched by others' work will strengthen the IUI community and provide valuable benefits for the students involved.The funding will support around 14 students to attend the conference. Most of these students will also attend a Doctoral Consortium at which later-stage PhD students will present and get feedback on their dissertation research from both senior researchers and other PhD students in the IUI community. The availability of travel funding will be widely announced in the relevant communities, with students being invited to submit applications describing their doctoral work. These applications will be reviewed by a program committee that gives substantive feedback for every application, whether accepted or not. Acceptance decisions will be made with an eye toward topical, institutional, and demographic diversity of participants, while also considering financial need. Chosen students will attend a day-long doctoral consortium, have additional opportunities to meet with individual mentors, and be invited to present in a poster session for the conference.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将支持学生参加2024年版的智能用户界面（IUI）会议，该会议将在南卡罗来纳州的格林维尔举行。 IUI是主要国际会议，人类计算机互动（HCI）和人工智能（AI）的研究人员介绍了使用AI来帮助人们更有效与计算机互动的系统的工作。 IUI研究涵盖了广泛的社会重要主题和领域，包括推荐系统，自适应教育系统，可访问性，自主系统，创造力，虚拟代理等。提供旅行资金，使初级研究人员能够展示自己的作品并被他人丰富的工作，这将增强IUI社区并为相关学生提供宝贵的利益。资金将支持大约14名学生参加会议。这些学生中的大多数还将参加一个博士联盟，在该联盟中，后来的博士学位学生将在IUI社区中的高级研究人员和其他博士学位学生提供有关其论文研究的反馈。旅行资金的可用性将在相关社区中广泛宣布，并邀请学生提交描述其博士工作的申请。这些申请将由计划委员会审查，该计划委员会为每个申请（无论是否接受）提供实质性反馈。接受决策将介意参与者的局部，机构和人口多样性，同时也考虑财务需求。选定的学生将参加为期一天的博士联盟，还有其他机会与个人导师会面，并受邀参加会议的海报会议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的审查标准通过评估来进行评估。
