I am delighted to invite you and your colleagues to the 4th International Conference on Human and Artificial Rationality (HAR 2025), which will take place in Paris, France. This year’s conference will be held at the Facultés Libres de Philosophie et de Psychologie (IPC) in the heart of Paris and is now open for the submission of extended abstracts for individual talks.
The conference on Human and Artificial Rationality's main focus is on computational approaches to human reasoning (in the broad sense, including judgments, decision-making, problem-solving, pragmatics, ...), its criticism, and how human-like artificial reasoning can be. Regarding human rationality, this includes not only formal models of rationality but also the investigation of the different factors that influence or direct human reasoning (including automatic processes and deliberate thinking).
Regarding artificial rationality, this does not simply include artificial computational models, but how they relate to human reasoning. Another area of interest is the rationality processes involved in interacting with artificial and human agents.
Following peer review, accepted papers will be published as a volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) LNCS volumes are submitted for indexing in the Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI), part of Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science; Scopus; EI Engineering Index; Google Scholar; DBLP; etc.
