However, evaluating systems that are built using existing techniques can be difficult. For example, a system can be built using a known machine-learning technique but it can enable entirely new functionality. In this case, reviewers will need to judge the novelty of the new functionality that the system enables without penalizing the work for leveraging an existing technique.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For reference, here\u2019s a paper about evaluating interactive systems that reviewers and authors should both be familiar with:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">James Fogarty (2017): Code and Contribution in Interactive Systems Research<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We further accept studies that replicate known findings systematically to confirm or contradict previously found results.<\/span><\/p><p><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><br \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0d201d0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0d201d0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e59fbc2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e59fbc2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c6b6b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5c6b6b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When designing and presenting user evaluations, please consider the following: User evaluations using non-representative or homogeneous participant populations can introduce biases in the results and conclusions. We recommend that researchers strive to use samples that are representative of the population for which the technology is being designed. If representative samples are not possible to collect, we recommend that the limitations of the population studied should be discussed within the paper and care must be taken when making claims about the findings. We recommend that participant demographic information should be reported for user evaluations so that future researchers understand the results based on the population studied.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65d2e98 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"65d2e98\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7d49b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e7d49b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Accessibility<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f72dfdf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f72dfdf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We ask authors to try to be as inclusive as possible when preparing a submission.
