% The \author macro works with any number of authors. There are two commands
% used to separate the names and addresses of multiple authors: \And and \AND.
%
% Using \And between authors leaves it to \LaTeX{} to determine where to break
% the lines. Using \AND forces a linebreak at that point. So, if \LaTeX{}
% puts 3 of 4 authors names on the first line, and the last on the second
% line, try using \AND instead of \And before the third author name.

\section{Submission of papers to HAIC 2027}
The 1st Human--AI Interaction Conference (HAIC 2027) will be held June
27--30, 2027 in Washington, DC. HAIC accepts papers, practice \& deployment
reports, demos, and doctoral consortium applications. See the conference
website for the call for papers, important dates, and submission
instructions:
\begin{center}
\url{https://haic.cc/}
\end{center}
The format for submissions is a variant of the COLM formats. Please read the instructions below carefully and follow them
faithfully.
\subsection{Style}
Papers submitted to HAIC 2027 must be prepared according to the
instructions presented here.
%% Please note that we have introduced automatic line number generation
%% into the style file for \LaTeXe. This is to help reviewers
%% refer to specific lines of the paper when they make their comments. Please do
%% NOT refer to these line numbers in your paper as they will be removed from the
%% style file for the final version of accepted papers.
Authors are required to use the HAIC \LaTeX{} style files obtainable from the
HAIC website. Please make sure you use the current files and
not previous versions. Tweaking the style files may be grounds for rejection.
\subsubsection{Copy options}
The {\tt submission} option is the default and is to be used for all
submissions during the review process. It anonymizes the authors and turns on
line numbers. If your paper is accepted, set the option {\tt final} in the
{\tt {\textbackslash}usepackage[submission]\{haic2027\_conference\}} command for
the camera-ready version. To post a preprint, use the option {\tt preprint}.
\subsection{Retrieval of style files}
The style files for HAIC and other conference information are available
online at \url{https://haic.cc/}.
The file \verb+haic2027_conference.pdf+ contains these
instructions and illustrates the
various formatting requirements your HAIC paper must satisfy.
Submissions must be made using \LaTeX{} and the style files
\verb+haic2027_conference.sty+ and \verb+haic2027_conference.bst+ (to be used
with \LaTeX{}2e). The file \verb+haic2027_conference.tex+ may be used as a
``shell'' for writing your paper. All you have to do is replace the author,
title, abstract, and text of the paper with your own.
The formatting instructions contained in these style files are summarized in
sections \ref{gen_inst}, \ref{headings}, and \ref{others} below.
\section{General formatting instructions}
\label{gen_inst}
The text must be confined within a rectangle 5.5~inches (33~picas) wide and
9~inches (54~picas) long. The left margin is 1.5~inch (9~picas).
Use 10~point type with a vertical spacing of 11~points. Palatino is the
preferred typeface throughout, and is mandatory for the main text. Paragraphs
are separated by 1/2~line space, with no indentation.
Paper title is 17~point and left-aligned.
All pages should start at 1~inch (6~picas) from the top of the page.
Please verify that any custom header information you may add does not
override the style defined in this document. This has been known to occur
especially when submissions are converted to a new template from a previous
one (i.e., for re-submission from a different venue).
Authors' names are
set in boldface, and each name is placed above its corresponding
address. The lead author's name is to be listed first, and
the co-authors' names are set to follow. Authors sharing the
same address can be on the same line.
Please pay special attention to the instructions in section \ref{others}
regarding figures, tables, acknowledgments, and references.
There will be a strict upper limit of 15 pages for the main text of the
submission, with unlimited additional pages for citations.
We strongly recommend following arXiv's guidelines for making your paper
friendly for HTML conversion:
\url{https://info.arxiv.org/help/submit_latex_best_practices.html}.
\section{Headings: first level}
\label{headings}
First level headings are in lower case (except for first word and proper
nouns), bold face, flush left and in point size 12. One line space before the
first level heading and 1/2~line space after the first level heading.
\subsection{Headings: second level}
Second level headings are in lower case (except for first word and proper
nouns), bold face, flush left and in point size 10. One line space before the
second level heading and 1/2~line space after the second level heading.
\subsubsection{Headings: third level}
Third level headings are in lower case (except for first word and proper
nouns), bold face, italics, flush left and in point size 10. One line space
before the third level heading and 1/2~line space after the third level
heading.
\section{Citations, figures, tables, references}\label{others}
These instructions apply to everyone, regardless of the formatter being used.
\subsection{Citations within the text}
Citations within the text should be based on the \texttt{natbib} package
and include the authors' last names and year (with the ``et~al.'' construct
for more than two authors). When the authors or the publication are
included in the sentence, the citation should not be in parentheses; use
\verb|\citet{}| (as in ``See \citet{exampleHCI} for more information.'').
Otherwise, the citation should be in parentheses using \verb|\citep{}| (as in
``Human-centered design is a key consideration for AI
systems~\citep{exampleAI}.'').
The corresponding references are to be listed in alphabetical order of
authors, in the \textsc{References} section. As to the format of the
references themselves, any style is acceptable as long as it is used
consistently.
\subsection{Footnotes}
Indicate footnotes with a number\footnote{Sample of the first footnote} in the
text. Place the footnotes at the bottom of the page on which they appear.
Precede the footnote with a horizontal rule of 2~inches
(12~picas).\footnote{Sample of the second footnote}
\subsection{Figures}
All artwork must be neat, clean, and legible. Lines should be dark
enough for purposes of reproduction; artwork should not be
hand-drawn. Any text within the figure must be readable. We ask that you not
use font sizes below {\tt small}. We strongly recommend using vector
representations (e.g., pdf or svg) for all diagrams. Screenshots of interfaces
should be high-resolution and legible at the printed size.
We strongly recommend positioning all figures at the top or bottom of the page.
The figure number and caption always appear below the figure. Place one line
space before the figure caption, and one line space after the figure. The
figure caption is lower case (except for first word and proper nouns); figures
are numbered consecutively.
Make sure the figure caption does not get separated from the figure.
Leave sufficient space to avoid splitting the figure and figure caption.
You may use color figures.
However, it is best for the
figure captions and the paper body to make sense if the paper is printed
either in black/white or in color. Please also consider readers with color
vision deficiencies.

\fbox{\rule[-.5cm]{0cm}{4cm} \rule[-.5cm]{4cm}{0cm}}
\end{center}
\caption{Sample figure caption.}
\end{figure}
\subsection{Tables}
All tables must be centered, neat, clean and legible. Do not use hand-drawn
tables. The table number and title always appear below the table. See
Table~\ref{sample-table}. Please do not use font sizes below {\tt small} in
tables. We recommend using {\tt booktabs} or a similar package to style tables.
We strongly recommend positioning all tables at the top or bottom of the page.
Place one line space before the table title, one line space after the table
title, and one line space after the table. The table title must be lowercase
(except for first word and proper nouns); tables are numbered consecutively.
\begin{table}[t]
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{ll}
\toprule
\multicolumn{1}{c}{\bf CONDITION} &\multicolumn{1}{c}{\bf DESCRIPTION} \\
\midrule
Baseline &Participants complete the task without AI support \\
AI suggestions &The system proposes options the participant may accept \\
AI explanations &Suggestions are accompanied by rationales \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\caption{Sample table title}\label{sample-table}
\end{table}
\section{Final instructions}
Do not change any aspects of the formatting parameters in the style files.
In particular, do not modify the width or length of the rectangle the text
should fit into, and do not change font sizes (except perhaps in the
\textsc{References} section; see below). Please note that pages should be
numbered.
\section{Preparing PDF files}
Please prepare PDF files with paper size ``US Letter'', and
not, for example, ``A4''.
We recommend generating PDF files directly using \verb+pdflatex+, followed by
\verb+bibtex+ and two more runs of \verb+pdflatex+ (or simply
\verb+latexmk -pdf+).
\subsection{Margins in LaTeX}
Most of the margin problems come from figures positioned by hand using
\verb+\special+ or other commands. We suggest using the command
\verb+\includegraphics+ from the graphicx package. Always specify the figure
width as a multiple of the line width, as in
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage{graphicx} ...
\includegraphics[width=0.8\linewidth]{myfile.pdf}
\end{verbatim}
See section~4.4 in the graphics bundle documentation
(\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/graphics/grfguide.ps}).
A number of width problems arise when LaTeX cannot properly hyphenate a
line. Please give LaTeX hyphenation hints using the \verb+\-+ command.
\section*{Author Contributions}
If you'd like to, you may include a section for author contributions as is
done in many journals. This is optional and at the discretion of the authors.
\section*{Acknowledgments}
Use unnumbered first level headings for the acknowledgments. All
acknowledgments, including those to funding agencies and study participants,
go at the end of the paper. Follow the HAIC review instructions regarding
identifying information during submission.
\section*{Artifact Availability}
If relevant, describe the availability of code, data, study materials,
or other artifacts, subject to participant privacy, research ethics,
and the current HAIC submission policies.
