The 2021 ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2021) is being held virtually this year from May 8 to 13, 2021. Widely considered to be the top international conference for Human-Computer Interaction research work, CHI (pronounced ‘kai’) is a place where a diverse group of researchers and practitioners gather to discuss the latest in interactive technology.
This is the second time that CHI is being held virtually, and the organizers have been observing and gathering feedback about virtual conferences that have been held over the last year to design a program schedule that will accommodate as many time zones as possible.
Adobe Research is presenting a variety of work at CHI this year, including:
- Five full papers
- Two “Late-Breaking Work” papers
- One workshop paper
Many of the accepted papers are the outcome of research internships. For those interested, please check out the Adobe Research Careers page to learn more about internships and full-time career opportunities.
