Description:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Causality, Agents and Large Models (CALM) represents three rapidly-growing =
fields within artificial intelligence research.
This workshop aims to bridge the gap between these disciplines by investiga=
ting how causal reasoning and explainable AI (XAI) techniques can enhance t=
he capabilities of multi-agent systems (MAS).
The workshop will provide a forum for researchers to discuss theoretical fo=
undations, practical applications, and future directions at the intersectio=
n of causal AI, XAI, Large Language Models (LLM) and MAS.

CALM Workshop goals:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
-Explore the role of causal reasoning in enhancing decision-making, coordin=
ation, and adaptation in multi-agent systems.
-Discuss technical challenges and opportunities for integrating causal AI t=
echniques and LLM into MAS frameworks.
-Develop methodologies and metrics to evaluate the explainability of causal=
 reasoning in agents and large models.
-Foster interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers in causal reaso=
ning, XAI, LLM, and MAS.
-Examine how explanations support user trust, cognitive ergonomics, and eff=
ective human-agent collaboration.
-Identify promising directions for future research and development in this =
rapidly advancing research domain.

Topics:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
-Theoretical foundations of causal reasoning in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS)
-Causal reasoning capabilities in Large Models (e.g., Large Language Models=
, LLMs)
-Theoretical and practical Agentic-AI
-Explainable AI (XAI) with active inference techniques
-Applications of XAI techniques in agent-based modeling and simulation
-Human-centered evaluation of causal explanations in MAS and LLMs
-Causal inference in complex and dynamic multi-agent environments
-Mechanistic Interpretability of Causality in Large Language Models
-LLMs for coordination, cooperation, and communication among agents
-Challenges and opportunities for incorporating XAI into MAS frameworks
-Case studies and empirical evaluations of XAI approaches in agents
-Generative AI as preprocessing for MAS
-Exploring causality with deep generative models
-Digital twins and simulators for interpretable synthetic data generation
-Graph neural network causal learning
-Interpretable and ergonomically-grounded root cause analysis methods for a=
gent decision-making
-Logic and argumentation-based approaches to causal reasoning
-Ethical and Responsible XAI in LLM
-Human Factors in XAI and Agentic AI
-Adaptive and Personalized Explanations (Context-aware, and Human-centric)
-Multi-modal explanations and Cross-cultural ergonomics
-Ergonomic evaluation of explanation modalities (visual, textual, interacti=
ve)
-Explainability in human-agent teaming: Ergonomic principles for effective =
collaboration in mixed teams (humans + AI agents)

Submission guidelines:

Submissions will be reviewed by at least three members of the program commi=
ttee, who are experts in the field. The acceptance of the submitted papers =
will depend on their quality, relevance, and originality.
All accepted papers will be published in the Springer proceedings Communica=
tions in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series devoted to the publ=
ication of proceedings of computer science conferences.

Participants are therefore invited to submit
Long papers: up to 16 pages in length (excl. references) or
Short papers: up to 5 pages in length (excl. references).

Papers must be edited using the LNCS format and have to be submitted electr=
onically as PDF files via the EasyChair submission page:
