IJCAI Workshop on Decision Making in Partially Observable, Uncertain Worlds:
Exploring Insights from Multiple Communities
July 18 2011
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~emma/ijcai2011_workshop.html
Planning under uncertainty and partial observability is a key
challenge for both single agent and multi-agent systems. While much
progress has been made over the past decade in both areas, new
breakthroughs are needed for scaling up to more realistic domains. In
the related field of planning (classical, contingent, and conformant)
modern solvers can handle much larger domains, under the simpler
planning models. Moreover, scaling up of single and multi-agent
partially observable problems has been done largely independently, as
the two communities have little overlap.
In this workshop we seek to bring together members of these three
communities that handle partial observability - conformant planning,
POMDPs, and DEC-POMDPs - as well as people from other related
communities, such as classical planning, MDPs, reinforcement learning,
and distributed search, to discuss how each community may be able to
leverage advances from the other. We will have invited talks by three
experts in these areas: Hector Geffner, David Hsu, and Shlomo
Zilberstein.
We solicit papers relevant to single or multi-agent decision making
under uncertainty and partial observability. We also welcome papers
that are under review or have been recently accepted at a conference.
