** CALL FOR PAPERS **
6th ICAPS Workshop on Planning and Robotics (PlanRob‚ 2018)
http://icaps18.icaps-conference.org/planrob/
ICAPS 2018 Workshop
Delft, The Netherlands
June 25 or June 26, 2018
----------------------------------------------------------------
Topics and Objectives
***************
AI Planning & Scheduling (P&S) methods are crucial to enable intelligent
robots to perform autonomous, flexible, and interactive behaviors, but a
deep integration into robotic architectures is needed for their
effective deployment. This requires a close collaboration between
researchers from both the AI and the Robotics communities. In this
direction, this workshop aims at constituting a stable, long-term forum
where researchers from the P&S and the Robotics communities can openly
discuss about research progress, future directions and open challenges
related to P&S when applied to Robotics.
The PlanRob workshop is proposed in synergy with the ICAPS Robotics
track. We are in contact with the Robotics Track organizers trying to
explore different ways to synchronize with them. The PlanRob WS aims to
maintain a more informal forum where also more preliminary/visionary
works can be discussed stimulating direct and open interactions.
Topics of interest include but not limited to the following:
- planning domain representations for robotics applications;
- mission, path, and motion planning for robots;
- integrated planning and execution in robotic architectures;
- planning and coordination methods for multi-robot teams;
- mixed-initiative planning and sliding autonomy for robotic systems;
- human-aware planning and execution in human-robot interaction;
- adversarial action planning in competitive robotic domains;
- formal methods for robot planning and control;
- P&S methods for optimization and adaptation in robotics;
- benchmark planning domains for robots;
- optimizing behavior in large scale automated or semi-automated systems;
- real-world planning applications for autonomous and intelligent robots.
Important Dates
***************
Paper submission: March 20, 2018
Notification of acceptance: April 20, 2018
Camera-ready version due: May 25, 2018
Workshop Date: June 25 or June 26, 2018
Submissions
***************
There are two types of submissions: short position statements and
regular papers. Position papers are a maximum of 4 (four) pages. Regular
papers are a maximum of 10 (ten) pages.
All papers should be typeset in the AAAI style, described
at:http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/author.php removing AAAI
copyright. Accepted papers will be published on the workshop website and
printed as a hard-copy.
The papers must be submitted in a PDF format via EasyChair system
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=planrob2018).
The organizers will investigate the availability of journal editors in
order to invite higher quality papers from the PlanRob 2018 edition to a
special issue or post-proceedings volume.
