Dear all,


we warmly invite you to join our workshop titled “SA WS9 Cognitive 
Robotics” organized as part of the I-RIM 3D Conference.

Date: 8th October 2022 from 15:30 to 18:30

Location: Istituto Superiore Antincendi, Rome, ISA - Room 19 or online 
(https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202210051746560138409&URLID=3&ESV=10.0.16.7295&IV=16C691999060417087AA7DA342764C50&TT=1664992017176&ESN=GtLBIXWzUOkE2z7wXZiO%2B1CoWFWPwhzzANExvWok8X4%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9pLXJpbS5pdC9pdC9wcm9ncmFtbWEtdGVjbmljby1kZXR0YWdsaWF0by13b3Jrc2hvcC1pLXJpbTIwMjIv&HK=EC86628F272038835E4E30DE964E1B58206AF3ED4500F9EA93CE7F53F6B63CBE)

Title of the WorkShop: SA WS9 Cognitive Robotics


Organizers:
Antonio Chella, Full Professor at University of Palermo,
Antonio Sgorbissa, Associate Professor at University of Genova

Cognitive Robotics addresses the problem of making robots capable of 
intelligent and autonomous behaviors, allowing them to interact with the 
surrounding environment and humans by learning how to interpret their 
perceptions and act to achieve complex objectives.

In its narrowest sense, Cognitive Robotics is often interpreted as the 
engineering counterpart of Cognitive Sciences, aimed at exploring and 
embodying computational cognitive models, often with biological 
inspiration, in robotic agents. However, the term is used here in its 
broadest sense. In this workshop, the biological inspiration of the 
solutions proposed will undoubtedly be considered with attention but 
without being a prerequisite. On the opposite, we will use the term 
"Cognitive robotics" to refer to all computational approaches whose 
purpose is to equip a robotic system with advanced cognitive 
capabilities allowing it to interact with a dynamic and complex 
environment in complete or partial autonomy.

According to this definition, the workshop is open to all issues that 
play a crucial role in implementing intelligent autonomous systems. 
These include, for example, the study of new techniques for knowledge 
representation, learning, reasoning, planning, perception, navigation, 
manipulation, verbal and non-verbal human-robot interaction, cognitive 
architectures, and many others. In addition to the methodological 
aspects, the workshop will pay attention to applicative domains. 
Specifically, it will encourage the discussion on the most critical 
issues researchers encounter in developing intelligent agents operating 
in real environments related to industry and production, health and 
social care, safety, maintenance and inspection, agriculture, and more.
