Today, robots at the state of the art can recognize simple emotions in the human user and mimic simple emotions. However, no robot state of the art is considered a genuinely affective robot. Scholars agree that a genuinely affective robot would change the current views on technology: it would not be a ?nice companion? but a novel artifact. Moreover, facing the problem of robot emotions would be significant in studying emotions in humans and animals. The special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing on Affective Robotics will concern the theoretical studies, the computational models, and the case studies of affective robotics. Topics related to this are: - the role of a body in an affective robot; - cognitive robotics and affective robotics; - software and hardware issues for affective robotics; - learning and developmental approaches in affective robotics; - symbolic and neural representations in affective robots; - LLMs for an affective robot; - theory of mind for an affective robot; - measurements and assessments of emotions in an affective robot; - ethical and trust issues in affective robotics; - empirical studies and industrial applications of affective robotics.

Researchers in the P&S community have continued to develop approaches and produce planners, representations, as well as heuristics that robotics researchers can make use of. However, there remain numerous challenges complicating the uptake, use and successful integration of P&S technology in robotics, many of which have been addressed by robotics researchers with novel solutions. Strong collaboration and synergy between researchers in both communities is vital to the continued growth of the fields in a way that provide mutual benefits to the two communities. To foster this, the PlanRob workshop aims to provide a stable, long-term forum (having been held annually at ICAPS since 2013) where researchers from both the P&S and Robotics communities can openly discuss relevant issues, research and development progress, future directions and open challenges related to P&S when applied to Robotics. In addition to the usual paper submissions, the workshop?s format naturally lends itself to preliminary results, position papers as well as to work focused on challenges in using and integrating planners in robotics systems. *Topics of Interest* Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - human-aware planning and execution in human-robot interaction, - real-world planning applications for autonomous and intelligent robots, - planning domain representations for robotics applications, - optimising behaviour in large scale automated or semi-automated systems, - integrated planning and execution in robot architectures, - learning methods for robot planning and scheduling, - P&S methods for optimisation and adaptation in robotics, - mission, path, and motion planning for robots, - formal methods for robot planning and control, - challenges and solutions in using P&S technology in robotics, - open problems for P&S in robotics, - coordination of multi-robot teams, - benchmark planning domains for robots, - adversarial action planning in competitive robot domains, - mixed-initiative planning and sliding autonomy for robotic systems. *Important Dates* - Paper submission: Monday, 25 March 2024 (AoE) - Notification of acceptance: Friday, 26 April 2024 - Camera-ready version due: Friday 24 May 2024 (AoE) Workshop Date: June 2-3, 2024 The reference time-zone for all deadlines is UTC-12: Your submissions will be on time so long as there is still any place on Earth where the deadline has not yet passed. *Submission Details* There are two types of submissions: - short position papers (four pages) - regular papers (up to 10 pages) Papers may have an additional page containing references. Regular papers may be scheduled with more time in the final program. A poster session may be considered to provide a further presentation opportunity. The guidelines for formatting are the same as is used for ICAPS 2024 papers (typeset in the AAAI style as described at: https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202402081627570116393&URLID=3&ESV=10.0.19.7431&IV=A66D42A3652992C1FEF784DA8EF2F002&TT=1707409683045&ESN=coxKvBVH%2F7hHOr%2BrfCkhUp9u3gsPLhVi%2FUP1N7aRfKY%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hYWFpLm9yZy9QdWJsaWNhdGlvbnMvQXV0aG9yL2F1dGhvci5waHApLA&HK=55FC1687FDA30344078AB6069837471930FB9CF60ABDC2AC8DFC2BCB79563232 but with the AAAI copyright removed.

This area is interpreted broadly, covering autonomous cars and other vehicles, autonomously flying UAV?s, self-navigating ships, etc. We are looking for a candidate with demonstrable expertise in the field of perception platforms for autonomous mobility, with a focus on computer vision and AI-based solutions. This broad area includes foundations, techniques and supporting tools to create and improve software and systems that deliver high-quality properties in terms of security and reliability. Candidates must show a track record with excellent research results and practical implementations on topics within this domain, including but not limited to: - The fast detection of objects and their semantic identification in an environment. - The visual tracking of objects in the 3D environment of the platform. - The definition of free versus avoidable regions for mobility. For the case of vehicles this includes the detection of lane markings. - The estimation of distances based on one or multiple sensors. - Guaranteeing continuity through the integration of information from multiple sensors through time (?sensor fusion?). - Combining multiple subtasks through compact and powerful multi-task learning architectures and other software pipelines. Candidates are expected to develop an applied research programme that integrates well with the current research activities of the research group and the Department, as well as a valorisation strategy that can leverage on the track record and best practices of the group. Candidates also have to contribute to academic education at bachelor and master level and must also be prepared to provide scientific services both within and outside the university. KU Leuven is committed to creating a diverse environment and is therefore an equal opportunity employer. It explicitly encourages candidates from groups that currently are underrepresented at the university to submit their applications.

In diverse environments, the increased levels of autonomy for robots demand human?machine interaction to be safer, more intuitive, comfortable, and robust. Supervised autonomy - the robot?s autonomy supervised by humans - bridges the gap between teleoperated robotics and full autonomy. By automating specific tasks while keeping the humans in the loop, supervised autonomy can enhance the safety and productivity of individuals including workers, users, and patients, while providing operators with the ability to intervene when necessary. Human-robot interaction, collaboration and role adaptation during human-robot cooperation are characterized by different aspects that go from the body to the brain of the robot facilitated through communication interfaces. The Supervised autonomy: how to shape human-robot interaction from the body to the brain workshop intends to investigate the influence of all those aspects on the realization of supervised autonomy in robots operating in different domains, such as driving, flying, assistive technologies, teleoperation, medical applications, logistics, manufacturing. How to shape human-robot "InterAction" is a question to be answered by focusing on the integrated ?Phygital? aspects concerning sensors, design and materials, control and artificial intelligence. ------------------------------------ Some of the questions we will try to answer---------------------------------- ? How design, materials and control interfaces can help in realizing effective human supervision on robotic systems ? How human experience and lifelong learning can help to develop new paradigm for supervised autonomy ? How vision and tactile information together with AI-based elaboration of the information can be integrated into the learning process and in control strategies ? How neural control of movement between humans and robots can be realized and integrated into supervised autonomous systems ---------------------------------------------The topics of interest-------------------------------------------- ? Innovative materials for soft/rigid robots ? Hardware and software solutions for human-robot communication interface ? Learning visual representations for perception-action systems ?

Per questo motivo la partecipazione attiva di tutti voi ? particolarmente importante. Fra un anno, con l'Assemblea di Aprile 2025 scadr? infatti il terzo esercizio del secondo mandato dell?attuale Consiglio Direttivo e del Presidente in carica. Solo due dei nove membri del Consiglio potranno essere rieletti. La transizione coinvolger? almeno i sette noni della dirigenza: ? chiaramente in gioco il futuro di I-RIM. I Vice Presidenti per la Pianificazione, Dario e De Luca, hanno raccomandato che ci sia un tempo sufficiente per il passaggio delle consegne tra il vecchio Consiglio Direttivo e la presa di servizio del nuovo. Per questo motivo il Consiglio Direttivo ha deciso di fissare ad Ottobre 2024, in occasione dell?Assemblea durante I-RIM 3D, la elezione del nuovo Consiglio Direttivo. L?elezione durante l?Assemblea di I-RIM 3D 2024 a Roma, ? stata pensata in presenza per un coinvolgimento ancora maggiore vista l?importanza del momento. Il nuovo Consiglio Direttivo "in pectore" affiancher? quindi il Consiglio Direttivo attuale da Ottobre fino ad Aprile 2025, quando, dopo la votazione del bilancio, prender? carica effettiva. Il programma di questa fase elettiva ? quindi il seguente: 1) 16 Aprile 2024: Assemblea ordinaria per via telematica, apertura della discussione sulle nuove cariche 2) Giugno 2024: scadenza formale della presentazione delle candidature al Presidente 3) Ottobre 2024 (I-RIM 3D): elezione del nuovo Consiglio Direttivo durante l'Assemblea in persona a Roma 4) Novembre 2024: elezione di Presidente e Vice Presidente tra i membri del neo-eletto Consiglio Direttivo 5) Aprile 2025: Passaggio di consegne al nuovo Consiglio Direttivo e Presidente Per comodit?, si ricorda qui il link con Statuto e Regolamento vigenti: https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202403270936220102649&URLID=7&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=920DA68D4410BA0387B9B7E0255F01DA&TT=1711532183623&ESN=5qGyghvfG%2BSlLwWhMAXxaNfVMqGijDkRKaeVWJtvcKI%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9pLXJpbS5pdC9pdC9zdGF0dXRvLw&HK=F022890CC42482F0E99049DA660108FFDB4E920791E1C630ADA5D0DDA607BE6A Si ricorda infine l?Assemblea ? aperta a tutti i soci e simpatizzanti di I-RIM.

Personalization can significantly enhance human-robot interactions in various real-world scenarios by increasing engagement through tailored content, building trust and rapport, improving adherence to the interaction, and enhancing task performance. Due to their typical contexts of use, social robots are requested to adapt their behaviour in both short and long-term interactions. As a multimodal system, a robot integrates multiple channels of communication and perception to interact with humans and their environment effectively. For instance, a robot equipped with speech recognition capabilities can understand verbal commands and engage in spoken dialogue with users. Simultaneously, its vision system allows it to perceive facial expressions, gestures, and other visual cues, providing additional context for interpreting the user?s intent and emotional state. Moreover, tactile sensors enable the robot to sense touch and physical interactions, enhancing its ability to respond appropriately to human gestures and contact. By integrating these modalities, the robot can tailor its behaviour dynamically based on the information it gathers from each channel. Apart from that by leveraging multiple modalities such as speech, vision, and gesture, robots can offer diverse and flexible interfaces for non-experts to interact with and personalize the robot. For example, non-experts can teach new behaviours to the robot through multimodal demonstration, where they can verbally explain the desired behaviour while demonstrating corresponding actions. This approach not only allows users to convey their intentions more effectively but also provides multiple sources of information for the robot to learn from, enhancing the quality and robustness of the learned behaviours. This special session aims to bring together a multidisciplinary group of researchers from areas including, but not limited to, psychology, neuroscience, computer science, robotics, and sociology, to share and discuss current approaches to empowering robots with adaptive multimodal capabilities to foster research and development of robotic solutions specifically designed for meeting the individual?s unique needs. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: ? Personalization in short and long-term HRI ? User modelling in HRI ? Personalization in Multimodal Behaviors ? Robot?s personality ? Context and situation awareness for robots ? Engagement evaluation and re-engagement strategies ? Personalized dialogue with robots ? Personalized non-verbal behaviour with robots ? Adaptive human-aware task planning ? Theory of Mind for adaptive interaction ? Machine Learning for robotic personalization ? Lifelong (continual) learning for adaptation ? Adaptation in multimodal interaction ? Affective and emotion-adapted HRI ? Persuasion in HRI ? Personalization for Sustainability ? Culture-aware robots ? Evaluation metrics for adaptive robotic behaviour ? Ethical implications of personalization ? Robot customization and teaching --------- Paper format and submission guidelines https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202403301627490110342&URLID=10&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=0D783715C193BDE52136A7D390846869&TT=1711816074045&ESN=xWrendIM6o3YQSNWlGh1OJXrSGj1B5wph%2B6K99PR4bo%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9pY21pLmFjbS5vcmcvMjAyNC9ndWlkZWxpbmVzLw&HK=A82A86A79BD0704166C7CD5D2D7656EE3CC3DFCFC234C4FB42489BBA41531D7E --------- Organizers Silvia Rossi, University of Naples Federico II, Italy Antonio Andriella, Institut de Robotica I Informatica Industrial, Spain Berardina De Carolis, University of Bari, Italy Geoffrey Louie Wing-Yue, University of Oakland, USA --------------------------------------------------- Silvia Rossi, PhD Associate Professor Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology - D.I.E.T.I.

In parallel, new regulatory standards are being developed in Europe with the recent proposal of regulation of safety critical applications of Artificial Intelligence algorithms. This regulation, called the ?AI Act?, requires the continuous human supervision of the application and the possibility of intervening to stop or modify it, should a possible mistake be identified. This requirement goes beyond ?Explainable AI? and poses new architectural challenges, since autonomous tasks must be added to the teleoperated surgical robot that must seamlessly switch between the two modes. Speakers from surgical, industrial and technology areas are invited to explore the different points of view, and to provide their position statements and successful examples of autonomy in robotic surgery. A white paper will be prepared at the end of the workshop on the basis of the discussed points. -------------------The questions we will discuss------------------ It is known that medical devices must be designed starting from the regulatory requirements, to ensure that the solutions adopted will satisfy all safety, and certification statements. The development of autonomous features in robotic surgery has not paid attention to this aspect. Furthermore, the recent introduction of the AI Act by the European Commission, and similar regulations worldwide, adds very stringent constraints to the use of AI algorithms in safety-critical applications, such as robotic surgery. This requirement has two profound implications; the first is that surgical autonomous robots should not operate unattended, i.e. the robot must preserve its user visual and physical interfaces; the second implication is that a surgical robot must allow information exchange between its teleoperation and autonomous parts. This workshop aims to address these challenges, and explore the scientific and technical impact of these two implications on future products The discussions will be documented in a white paper, organizing contributions in a structured format. For those unable to attend in person, the workshop will offer Zoom participation, ensuring a global audience can actively contribute to the discussions. The tentative schedule, subject to adjustment for different time zones, reflects our commitment to inclusive participation and engaging discussions. Join us as we explore the forefront of autonomous capabilities in robotic surgery and collectively navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. ---------------------------The topics of interest------------------------------- Interaction and impact of these technologies in robotic surgery: ??? ?

This focused section will be a stage for researchers, engineering, and industrial practitioners to propose novel mechatronics solutions integrated into robotic system that are capable of autonomously executing tasks typically hazardous, dirty, and boring for humans, or into human-centric solutions where the robot supports the human in complex tasks. To reach this objective, novel actuation and multi-modal sensor systems, with functionalities and features also beyond human capabilities, will play a fundamental role in a range of innovative applications in key sectors, from service to production, from healthcare to domestic use. Furthermore, these solutions must be able to guarantee the responsiveness, intelligibility, and adaptability necessary for natural human-robot, as well as robot-robot, collaboration and interaction. The close interaction between actuation and sensing also allows the implementation of algorithms for quick detection and response to failures in different embodiments of mechatronics systems. In this direction also move several players (e.g., EU Commission and single countries) by funding new research and innovation projects and opening calls for new proposals. Particular focus shall be placed on multidisciplinary methodological frameworks, hardware development for real-world applications and out-of-lab experiments. Manuscripts should contain both theoretical and experimental results and they will be subject to the normal TMECH review procedures. The topics of interest within the scope of this Special Section include, but not limited to, the following: ? Human-centric robotics. ? Multi-modal perception. ? Sensing and perception for grasping and manipulation. ? Smart-material-based actuation and sensing systems. ? Sensor fusion techniques. ? Integrated robot design for natural human-machine interaction. ? High-density/distributed actuation and sensing. ? Sensory-motor integration. ? Shared autonomy of redundancy control in human-robot interaction. ? Synergy of data and robotics. Manuscript Preparation: Papers must contain original contributions and be prepared in accordance with TMECH standards.

Best regards, Paolo Salaris %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% *#1 PostDoc position/Research Fellow at Research Centre ?E. Piaggio?: University of Pisa, within the EU H2020 project DARKO (GA n. 01017274) in the topic of ?Safe and efficient dynamic manipulation in cluttered scenario?.* *RESEARCH ACTIVITY* The goal of the PostDoc is to advance the state-of-the-art in mobile dynamic manipulation. The primary objective will be to develop (possibly optimal) path planning and control strategies that enable safe and efficient dynamic grasping and manipulation (e.g., grasping of moving objects and throwing of them toward desired positions) in cluttered environments (e.g., boxes on a shelf) by using as a feedback the onboard sensors available on the robot. Model-free methodologies base on sensory feedback will be also explored for completely solving or just refining the model-based solutions. The robotic platform used for testing all the developed algorithms (and available in our lab) consists of an omnidirectional mobile based with on top of it a manipulator (Franka arm) equipped with a compliant gripper with an elastic wrist. *THE POSITION* The position is open until a satisfactory candidate is found. The PostDoc position is full-time for 1+1 years: upon completion of the first year, a renewal will be granted if both parties are satisfied. The position will be paid according to the current Italian salary regulations for Postdoctoral scholars and will be determined depending on the level of experience and research seniority of the candidate. *REQUIRED SKILLS* The successful candidate should ideally have: 1) a PhD in robotics and automation, Mechanical/Information Engineering; 2) clear publication record in the main robotics conferences/journals (e.g., ICRA, IROS, RSS, RAL, TRO, IJRR, JFR, AURO); 3) good experience with programming (C, C++, ROS1/ROS2), experience with Matlab/Simulink and robotic simulation environments (e.g., Gazebo) as well as computer vision and visual servoing will also be appreciated; 4) strong interest in scientific robotics research: both the more theoretical and algorithmic side of robotics (e.g., nonlinear and optimal control, estimation, trajectory planning, machine learning approaches), but also the experimental one (design and implementation of experiments with complex robots); 5) Scientific curiosity, large autonomy and ability to work independently; 6) Availability to co-supervise M.Sc. and Ph.D. students; 7) Availability to travel to international conferences and project meetings with partners.

Piaggio? of the University of Pisa is partner, sets out to realise a new generation of agile production robots that have energy-efficient elastic actuators to execute highly dynamic motions; are able to operate safely within unknown, changing environments; are easy (cost-efficient) to deploy; have predictive planning capabilities to decide for most efficient actions while limiting associated risks; and are aware of humans and their intentions to smoothly and intuitively interact with them. DARKO will demonstrate, in relevant scenarios, autonomous capabilities significantly beyond the current state of the art in dynamic manipulation (e.g., throwing of goods, picking and placing objects while in motion), perception, mapping, risk management, motion planning and human-robot interaction. Beyond its impact through improved capabilities in these areas, DARKO will provide answers to the questions where and how dynamic manipulation should be integrated as the most efficient solution in intra logistics. THE UNIVERSITY OF PISA AND THE RESEARCH CENTRE ?E. PIAGGIO? The University of Pisa (UNIPI), founded in 1343, is a public institution among the oldest and most prestigious universities in Europe. Moreover, it has twenty departments high level research centres in the agriculture, astrophysics, computer science, engineering, medicine and veterinary medicine sectors.

This focused section will be a stage for researchers, engineering, and industrial practitioners to propose novel mechatronics solutions integrated into robotic system that are capable of autonomously executing tasks typically hazardous, dirty, and boring for humans, or into human-centric solutions where the robot supports the human in complex tasks. To reach this objective, novel actuation and multi-modal sensor systems, with functionalities and features also beyond human capabilities, will play a fundamental role in a range of innovative applications in key sectors, from service to production, from healthcare to domestic use. Furthermore, these solutions must be able to guarantee the responsiveness, intelligibility, and adaptability necessary for natural human-robot, as well as robot-robot, collaboration and interaction. The close interaction between actuation and sensing also allows the implementation of algorithms for quick detection and response to failures in different embodiments of mechatronics systems. In this direction also move several players (e.g., EU Commission and single countries) by funding new research and innovation projects and opening calls for new proposals. Particular focus shall be placed on multidisciplinary methodological frameworks, hardware development for real-world applications and out-of-lab experiments. Manuscripts should contain both theoretical and experimental results and they will be subject to the normal TMECH review procedures. The topics of interest within the scope of this Special Section include, but not limited to, the following: ? Human-centric robotics. ? Multi-modal perception. ? Sensing and perception for grasping and manipulation. ? Smart-material-based actuation and sensing systems. ? Sensor fusion techniques. ? Integrated robot design for natural human-machine interaction. ? High-density/distributed actuation and sensing. ? Sensory-motor integration. ? Shared autonomy of redundancy control in human-robot interaction. ? Synergy of data and robotics.

In these cases, the systems need the ability to operate and learn autonomously, while understanding when their decisions are unsafe, questionable, or unethical, and thus human supervision is required. Since situations are more and more frequent where systems exhibiting a high degree of autonomy are embodied into physical devices, such as robots, this form of adjustable autonomy also needs to take into account the peculiarities of the devices where the systems are physically embodied. In order to unify these two perspectives, scientific foundations, techniques, and tools for adjustable autonomy need to be devised, so as to equip software and/or physical AI systems with the required abilities to operate and learn in human environments, while being trustworthy and fully integrated in the environment. The objective of the workshop is to serve as a forum for researchers interested in investigating all the aspects of combining adjustable autonomy and physical embodied intelligence, to openly discuss relevant issues, research and development progress, future directions, and open challenges. Since the primary goal is to foster the discussion about ideas related to the WS topics, we welcome contributions reporting on original, published, or ongoing work in the area. Workshop Format and Submissions The workshop program will include one oral presentation for each accepted paper. Additionally, one or two invited speakers working in related areas will also be part of the program. The expected duration is one full day. We solicit submissions of papers covering any aspect of interest for Adjustable Autonomy and Physical Embodied Intelligence. Recent work currently submitted to or accepted at other conferences and/or journals is also eligible for presentation. Typical contributions relate (but are not limited) to the following topics: - Humans and AI - Knowledge Representation and Reasoning - Machine Learning and Reinforcement Learning - AI and Robotics - Logic-based approaches for AI - Fairness, Ethics, and Trust - Multi-Agent Systems - Human-Robot Interaction and cooperation - Embodied Intelligence - Robot Learning - Planning, execution and monitoring for autonomy - LLMs for embedded autonomy - Experiences in deploying embedded autonomy, from conception to maturity in practice Authors can choose one of the following submission options: - Extended Abstract: 2 to 4 pages, not included in proceedings - Short Paper: 5 pages (excluding references) - Regular Paper: 6 to 10 pages (excluding references) Contributions must be submitted via the CMT System https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202404122019010241718&URLID=18&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=6A3C0320A732BBB6D07AC02878A4F2EC&TT=1712953148344&ESN=kjricDjqbkxsTfeLRx8CFCXAbLqldcNwJ0VjH9Hq0Ow%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9jbXQzLnJlc2VhcmNoLm1pY3Jvc29mdC5jb20vQUFQRUkyMDI0L1N1Ym1pc3Npb24vSW5kZXg&HK=FC1FD349C2AE882D643BF5E83F72CD16736A87DCA52E4BD187ECA740AE2C50B0 and must be formatted using the new CEURART style.

In 2023, 69 international students attended the first edition, and the school offered 52 hours of didactic activities. The multidisciplinary and hands-on structure of the School, highly appreciated by the attendants in 2023, is a one-of-kind opportunity for the attendees to see robotics from a wider point of view. This year, the Scientific Committee is comprised of 13 members, with great team diversity in terms of cultural background, universities, and regional distribution, aiming to provide a top-class education.

A three-year PhD position is available in the ABRO program (Automatica, Bioingegneria e Rcerca Operativa) of the currect cycle 40 (2024-25) under the ?Automatic Control? curriculum on ?Safe human-robot collaboration for assembly and test activities of aerospace devices?. The research activity is sponsored by Thales Alenia Space Italia - TASI (https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202405280930320147259&URLID=21&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=5BC03C7A1542453B8F1AB0C4C22393BF&TT=1716888636993&ESN=t61%2Fkm%2B%2FpnPdDW07c8qT9MUiwPPIKAtA1JgwLA99wX0%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhhbGVzYWxlbmlhc3BhY2UuY29tL2Vu&HK=5BA1C54541E5826DFD1C69576978AFAD6AA84ECD025C2694023032F05F057BE3 ) under the PNRR DM 630 national program, and supervised scientifically by Alessandro De Luca (deluca at diag.uniroma1.it ). In the context of integration between advanced IT techniques and automation of production processes (Industry 4.0), the theme of this doctorate concerns the introduction of collaborative robotic systems for the semi-automatic assembly and testing of aerospace components and devices. Starting from an analysis of the existing assembly and test procedures, which are currently carried out manually, activities will be identified that can be performed, under premises of efficiency and safety, in a collaborative mode between operator and robot. Based on the corresponding specifications, the sensory system needed for coexistence and collaboration will be designed, together with the supervisory system for controlling motion and exchanged forces during the physical interaction, and the associated human-machine interface. The goal is the creation of a prototype of a flexible cell for the assembly of small satellites, in which the most advanced research results in collaborative robotics will be implemented. The activities will be perfomed both at the DIAG Robotics Laboratory (https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202405280930320147259&URLID=19&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=E1D950AE7C9F74ABE0444B12AA2305ED&TT=1716888636993&ESN=6nUf6n72pJehQvBUn1xHkCN4FgZWUZ%2FXZuTknydsRtk%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20vdXNlci9Sb2JvdGljc0xhYlNhcGllbnph&HK=ADC9DD8BAF9749DEADACBC5DF92B82ECF5A4876E88EE6A338345DEA6FF0146EE ) and at the TASI Laboratories in the ?Tiburtina Valley? in Rome.

The workshop aims at pushing the synergetic contribution from experts (scholars, researchers, Ph.D. students, and practitioners) in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics and other crossing disciplines involved in developing innovative and effective research and technologies for the aging society and assistance in general. The workshop will pursue a multi-disciplinary approach by collecting knowledge and experiences from heterogeneous disciplines and also experiences from stakeholders in order to show how efforts from technological and non-technological actors would add value to the promotion of innovative assistive systems. The workshop aims at bridging the gap between the health needs of users and (potentially conflicting) clinical/social requirements of different stakeholders (e.g., patients, roboticists, engineers, and healthcare professionals). Topics of Interest - Cognitive Robotics - Social-Aware and User-Aware Interaction - Personalized and Adaptive Robotic Assistance - Activity monitoring systems (indoor and outdoor) - Object and Activity Recognition - Trustworthy Social Robots - Explainable AI with Social Robots - Co-Design of Assistive Solutions - Mixed-Initiative Interaction - Ethical Issues in Social Robotics for frailty management - AI Techniques Applied to Assistive Scenarios - Evaluation methodologies and experiences for social robots - Multi-modal perception and human behavioral modeling - other related topics Submission Guidelines We welcome prospective participants to submit extended abstracts (up to 4 pages LNCS one-column) or full papers that will be included in the CEUR-WS proceedings of the workshop. Two types of full papers are considered for publication and should be formatted as follows: - Short paper: up to 6-7 pages formatted as LNCS one-column paper - Long paper: minimum 6-7 pages formatted as LNCS one-column paper Submitted short and long papers should comply with CEURART style. An Overleaf page is available for Latex as a template . Style files could even be downloaded offline as a zip file . Please refer to the official instructions on the CEUR-WS webpage for further details. We strongly encourage workshop participants to present during paper presentation demos and videos showing their experiments and achievements.

Ho conosciuto Ettore pi? di 20 anni fa. Ero da poco ad Unibas ed avevamo appena avviato un corso di laurea in ingegneria dell'informazione e delle tlc nella sede di Matera. Conobbi Ettore a Houston, ad un congresso (un ISIC/CCA se non erro), e fui subito colpito dalla sua seriet?, dalla sua intelligenza viva e dalla sua cultura veramente interdisciplinare. Gli chiesi di venire a darci una mano per coprire alcuni corsi e lui accett? con entusiasmo. Per anni ? stato un nostro docente, apprezzato da colleghi e studenti. Perdo un collega con cui era sempre un piacere confrontarsi, anche se ormai le occasioni di confronto erano purtroppo diventate rarissime. Prego? colleghi della sede di Bari di informarci sui funerali, vorrei provare a partecipare per salutarlo.

Such general-purpose solutions often reveal potentials that go beyond what their creators originally envisioned, motivating users to adopt these models for a broad spectrum of applications. The goal of this workshop is to identify and discuss strategies to assess both positive and negative (possibly unexpected) behaviors in the development and use of foundation models. Particular attention will be given to applications that diverge significantly from the scenarios encountered during the training phase of foundational models. These include application-specific visual understanding, uncertainty evaluation, goal-conditioned reasoning, human habits learning, task and motion planning, scene navigation, vision-based manipulation, etc. Our purpose is to foster an open discussion between foundation model creators and users, targeting the analysis of the most pressing open questions for the two communities and fostering new fruitful collaborations. Call for Papers The workshop calls for submissions addressing, but not limited to, the following topics: * New vision-and-language applications * Supervised vs unsupervised based foundation model and downstream tasks * Zero-shot, Few-shot, continual and life-long learning of foundation model * Open set, out-of-distribution detection and uncertainty estimation * Perceptual reasoning and decision making: alignment with human intents and modeling * Prompt and Visual instruction tuning * Novel evaluation schemes and benchmarks * Task-specific vs general-purpose models * Robustness and generalization * Interpretability and explainability * Ethics and bias in prompting Submission guidelines Papers should be submitted at: https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202406071254520172489&URLID=8&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=324F7936A6F367196CF73A7DE8104CF1&TT=1717764897437&ESN=L268RgdZY9p7E1gBjKYLEfMp6fhVoP1XNEwr1Hk5Oh4%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9jbXQzLnJlc2VhcmNoLm1pY3Jvc29mdC5jb20vRk9DVVMyMDI0&HK=B8BFBB9D42C549A10C508225B0C5C8CAD701A727AFDFE53A999EAAFA4C9FE456 We accept two types of submission: Full papers: must present original research, not published elsewhere, and follow the ECCV main conference policies and format with a maximum length of 14 pages (extra pages with references only are allowed).

Piaggio? of the University of Pisa is partner, sets out to realise a new generation of agile production robots that have energy-efficient elastic actuators to execute highly dynamic motions; are able to operate safely within unknown, changing environments; are easy (cost-efficient) to deploy; have predictive planning capabilities to decide for most efficient actions while limiting associated risks; and are aware of humans and their intentions to smoothly and intuitively interact with them. DARKO will demonstrate, in relevant scenarios, autonomous capabilities significantly beyond the current state of the art in dynamic manipulation (e.g., throwing of goods, picking and placing objects while in motion), perception, mapping, risk management, motion planning and human-robot interaction. Beyond its impact through improved capabilities in these areas, DARKO will provide answers to the questions where and how dynamic manipulation should be integrated as the most efficient solution in intra logistics. *THE UNIVERSITY OF PISA AND THE RESEARCH CENTRE ?E. PIAGGIO?* The University of Pisa (UNIPI), founded in 1343, is a public institution among the oldest and most prestigious universities in Europe. Moreover, it has twenty departments high level research centres in the agriculture, astrophysics, computer science, engineering, medicine and veterinary medicine sectors. Among them, the Research Centre "Enrico Piaggio" (https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202406220715250208977&URLID=13&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=F92534A694D06FCFCDDECFDC73BA2B3E&TT=1719040530439&ESN=4Hgp4VwSCelyICZhEAkTBIHDxF8hth3LBhoUUDN0c8E%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5jZW50cm9waWFnZ2lvLnVuaXBpLml0&HK=D3EF37A9AE1D30DAB299546590C37CE3CBF00040E1C3C516B1D899E4BD35A840), since its foundation in September 1965, has paved the way for the convergence of minds by bringing together scientists from different fields of knowledge, ranging from engineering to mathematics, medicine and psychology, towards applications in Bioengineering and Robotics. The ?Enrico Piaggio? Research Centre has long-standing experience in managing contracts with international, EU, and industrial partners. The Robotics group focuses on robotics and embodied intelligence, and it is among the originators of the modern approach to physical human-robot interaction, with a particular attention to the study of compliant actuators, hands and haptics, human tactual perception and the relationship between perceptual illusions in the visual and tactile domains. *INFORMATION* For additional information, please contact Prof. Paolo Salaris [paolo.salaris at unipi.it]. -- Paolo Salaris, PhD Associate Professor ************************************* Department of Information Engineering and Research Center "E.Piaggio", School of Engineering - University of Pisa Largo Lucio Lazzarino 1, 56122 Pisa, Italy Email:paolo.salaris at unipi.it -- Paolo Salaris, PhD Associate Professor ************************************* Department of Information Engineering and Research Center "E.Piaggio", School of Engineering - University of Pisa Largo Lucio Lazzarino 1, 56122 Pisa, Italy Email:paolo.salaris at unipi.it -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Ci? sar? possibile a partire dall?identificazione dei bisogni non soddisfatti dei pazienti e degli operatori sanitari, da affrontare con tecnologie (bio)robotiche/bioniche attuali e innovative, attraverso studi clinici multicentrici concepiti congiuntamente da bioingegneri e clinici coinvolti. Il paradigma di continuit? di cura partir? dalla prevenzione e comprender? tutte le fasi della malattia, dalla fase acuta (al letto del paziente) a quella cronica (riabilitazione domiciliare), contribuendo alla definizione di nuovi protocolli di pre-riabilitazione e di strumenti diagnostici rivolti a individui fragili o lavoratori esposti a malattie professionali o stress ripetitivi. Fit for Medical Robotics si concentra sia sulle tecnologie gi? disponibili ma non ancora completamente validate, che su quelle emergenti o nuove idee da esplorare nel corso dell?Iniziativa. Pertanto, saranno oggetto di studio tutti quei nuovi materiali, gli algoritmi, i sensori e gli attuatori intelligenti, cos? come le fonti di energia sostenibili, in grado di superare i limiti fisici e tecnologici dell?attuale generazione di robot biomedicali. Gli sforzi clinici, scientifici e tecnologici saranno di pari passo accompagnati da iniziative in ambito politico, normativo e organizzativo al fine di favorire lo sviluppo di un ecosistema nazionale atto a incorporare (in modo sostenibile) le attuali e future tecnologie nel sistema sanitario e a sostenere l'innovazione che esse porteranno. L'iniziativa ? organizzata in tre Missioni (Mission) di ricerca interconnesse: ? Mission 1: Clinical Translation & Innovation (Traslazione Clinica e Innovazione); ? Mission 2: Biorobotic Platforms & Allied Digital Technologies (Piattaforme Biorobotiche & Tecnologie Digitali Alleate); ? Mission 3: Next Generation Components (Componenti di Nuova Generazione). Rientrano tra gli interventi finanziabili la costruzione di prototipi, la dimostrazione, la realizzazione di prodotti pilota, test e convalida di prodotti, processi o servizi nuovi o migliorati, effettuati in un ambiente che riproduce le condizioni operative reali con l'obiettivo primario di apportare ulteriori miglioramenti tecnici a prodotti, processi e servizi che non sono sostanzialmente definitivi, attraverso l'acquisizione, la combinazione, la strutturazione e l'utilizzo delle conoscenze e capacit? esistenti di natura scientifica, tecnologica, commerciale e di altro tipo. Mission 2 (amministrativamente gestita dallo Spoke 2 ? CNR), costituita dalla compagine (bio)ingegneristica del consorzio, fornisce ai clinici della Mission 1 gli health-care o personal-care robots, appositamente adattati ai bisogni non soddisfatti dei gruppi target, per condurre gli studi clinici. Per health-care robot si intendono i robot che supportano i pazienti con funzioni sensomotorie o cognitive ridotte. Tra questi possiamo elencare: robot assistivi che ripristinano funzioni sensoriali e motorie perse (come protesi d?arto, esoscheletri assistivi, manipolatori su sedie a rotelle, ecc.) e robot per la riabilitazione che forniscono riabilitazione fisica robot-mediata (end-effector, esoscheletri per la riabilitazione, deambulatori robotici, ecc.). Per personal-care robots si intendono i robot che offrono adattamento della terapia, monitoraggio, empowerment o trattamenti di pre-riabilitazione a individui a rischio. Questi includono: mobile servants (servitori mobili), e physical assistants (assistenti fisici) in grado di supportare e/o monitorare individui fragili e robot occupazionali per individui esposti a malattie professionali o stress ripetitivi. Il bando cofinanzia proposte di intervento per attivit? di ricerca industriale e sviluppo sperimentale in tecnologie e percorsi innovativi in ambito sanitario e assistenziale realizzate in collaborazione tra imprese ed organismi di ricerca, nell?ambito dell?Iniziativa Codice PNC0000007 dal titolo "FIT4MEDROB: Fit for Medical Robotics", Mission 2 - CUP B53C22006960001.

We have a high number of forums, discussing the global themes that robotics can address. IROS 2024 will be a celebration of the future of robotics leveraging on the opportunities offered by the location in the Middle East. It will feature: *Opportunities for technical exchange:*?the quality of the papers selected and the conference format will support in depth discussions and exchanges of scientific ideas and application examples. Workshop and tutorials will focus on specific technical contents for in depth sharing and learning. *Opportunities for sustainability*: Following the example of ICRA 2023, we will use part of the conference surplus to offset the CO2 footprint of the conference. According to the UAE habit, the venue is managed in fully green way. More importantly,?we will explore how robotics can be made sustainable and accessible, bringing the benefits to robotics to the largest possible number of people. We will listen to governments' programs on the diverse challenges of sustainability robotics can respond to, from environmental to social. *Opportunities for employment:*?We will offer partial travel support to students and young professionals who will have the opportunity to meet potential employers from all over the world within an organized Job Fair on the conference ground. *Opportunities for business*: We organized meetings on funding of research and development, motivated by the interest in robotics by the local government. We will encourage one-to-one meetings with government members of all participating Countries and with potential investors, to address the business aspects of robotics. We are working on simplifying travel and custom procedures and investor relations, to facilitate the participation of small companies to IROS 2024. *Opportunities for families*: Support to families traveling to the conference will be provided to accommodate families' preferred way of participation. Childcare services will be made available. The traditional Women in Robotics luncheon will offer an opportunity to discuss specific needs and further initiatives. *Opportunities for cultural exchange: *we are developing a strong cultural program to expose the conference delegates to the cultural and historical heritage of the hosting Country and of the whole region. *Opportunities for inclusion*: IROS 2024 will be a snapshot of all diversities existing in the society and in the Countries sending their delegates to the event. IROS 2024 will be accessible to everybody and welcoming everybody. We will offer partial travel support to students and researchers from developing countries who have the opportunity?to more easily reach the destination of Abu Dhabi. Two Forums will address diversity, in a broad sense, and robotics in Africa, specifically. We hope to see many of you at IROS 2024 to share these opportunities together.

Such general-purpose solutions often reveal potentials that go beyond what their creators originally envisioned, motivating users to adopt these models for a broad spectrum of applications. The goal of this workshop is to identify and discuss strategies to assess both positive and negative (possibly unexpected) behaviors in the development and use of foundation models. Particular attention will be given to applications that diverge significantly from the scenarios encountered during the training phase of foundational models. These include application-specific visual understanding, uncertainty evaluation, goal-conditioned reasoning, human habits learning, task and motion planning, scene navigation, vision-based manipulation, etc. Our purpose is to foster an open discussion between foundation model creators and users, targeting the analysis of the most pressing open questions for the two communities and fostering new fruitful collaborations. Call for Papers The workshop calls for submissions addressing, but not limited to, the following topics: * New vision-and-language applications * Supervised vs unsupervised based foundation model and downstream tasks * Zero-shot, Few-shot, continual and life-long learning of foundation model * Open set, out-of-distribution detection and uncertainty estimation * Perceptual reasoning and decision making: alignment with human intents and modeling * Prompt and Visual instruction tuning * Novel evaluation schemes and benchmarks * Task-specific vs general-purpose models * Robustness and generalization * Interpretability and explainability * Ethics and bias in prompting Submission guidelines Papers should be submitted at: https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202407111223430258526&URLID=7&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=4C55745843908E6694E47CD9A27711E8&TT=1720700629274&ESN=8MtJqxIdLo%2BGRlrc7VqsahS62a%2BmGyVEs0xcuu1fTXI%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly9jbXQzLnJlc2VhcmNoLm1pY3Jvc29mdC5jb20vRk9DVVMyMDI0&HK=3F51CD61AE2684FF6FA77A85100143C6DD9D4073942E46668416B9269DFDD832 We accept two types of submission: Full papers: must present original research, not published elsewhere, and follow the ECCV main conference policies and format with a maximum length of 14 pages (extra pages with references only are allowed).

Spoke3? L?Iniziativa PNC, Fit for Medical Robotics mira a rivoluzionare gli attuali modelli di riabilitazione e assistenza a persone di tutte le et? con ridotte o assenti funzioni motorie, sensoriali o cognitive, attraverso l?uso di opportune tecnologie (bio)robotiche, delle tecnologie digitali alleate e di paradigmi di ?continuit? della cura? in tutte le fasi del processo di riabilitazione, dalla prevenzione fino all'assistenza domiciliare nella fase cronica. Ci? sar? possibile a partire dall?identificazione dei bisogni non soddisfatti dei pazienti e degli operatori sanitari, da affrontare con tecnologie (bio)robotiche/bioniche attuali e innovative, attraverso studi clinici multicentrici concepiti congiuntamente da bioingegneri e clinici coinvolti. Il paradigma di continuit? di cura partir? dalla prevenzione e comprender? tutte le fasi della malattia, dalla fase acuta (al letto del paziente) a quella cronica (riabilitazione domiciliare), contribuendo alla definizione di nuovi protocolli di pre-riabilitazione e di strumenti diagnostici rivolti a individui fragili o lavoratori esposti a malattie professionali o stress ripetitivi. Fit for Medical Robotics si concentra sia sulle tecnologie gi? disponibili ma non ancora completamente validate, che su quelle emergenti o nuove idee da esplorare nel corso dell?Iniziativa. Pertanto, saranno oggetto di studio tutti quei nuovi materiali, gli algoritmi, i sensori e gli attuatori intelligenti, cos? come le fonti di energia sostenibili, in grado di superare i limiti fisici e tecnologici dell?attuale generazione di robot biomedicali. Gli sforzi clinici, scientifici e tecnologici saranno di pari passo accompagnati da iniziative in ambito politico, normativo e organizzativo al fine di favorire lo sviluppo di un ecosistema nazionale atto a incorporare (in modo sostenibile) le attuali e future tecnologie nel sistema sanitario e a sostenere l'innovazione che esse porteranno. L'iniziativa ? organizzata in tre Missioni (Mission) di ricerca interconnesse: ? Mission 1: Clinical Translation & Innovation (Traslazione Clinica e Innovazione); ? Mission 2: Biorobotic Platforms & Allied Digital Technologies (Piattaforme Biorobotiche & Tecnologie Digitali Alleate); ? Mission 3: Next Generation Components (Componenti di Nuova Generazione). Rientrano tra gli interventi finanziabili la costruzione di prototipi, la dimostrazione, la realizzazione di prodotti pilota, test e convalida di prodotti, processi o servizi nuovi o migliorati, effettuati in un ambiente che riproduce le condizioni operative reali con l'obiettivo primario di apportare ulteriori miglioramenti tecnici a prodotti, processi e servizi che non sono sostanzialmente definitivi, attraverso l'acquisizione, la combinazione, la strutturazione e l'utilizzo delle conoscenze e capacit? esistenti di natura scientifica, tecnologica, commerciale e di altro tipo.

Call for Papers Focused Section on Smart Actuation and Multi-Modal Sensing Systems for Mechatronics Applications, Beyond the Human Capabilities https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202407231345130292078&URLID=15&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=22F900D291E2020538C5B70794D54908&TT=1721742316695&ESN=aw5yty8Fe9Ceg%2FNfT3uYAHwzx%2BhK7obvLId888vMD7U%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5pZWVlLWFzbWUtbWVjaGF0cm9uaWNzLmluZm8vZm9jdXMtc2VjdGlvbnMv&HK=F960CDE79A8ED60FFF323249EA9883FFE297606FE4CCDD49F6EA2E72D6AB4E09 In recent years, the number of research groups around the world working on innovative actuation systems (e.g., soft/compliant robots, reconfigurable systems) and multi-modal sensor systems (e.g., tactile, proximity, inertial, vision) is continuously growing. This focused section will be a stage for researchers, engineering, and industrial practitioners to propose novel mechatronics solutions integrated into robotic system that are capable of autonomously executing tasks typically hazardous, dirty, and boring for humans, or into human-centric solutions where the robot supports the human in complex tasks. To reach this objective, novel actuation and multi-modal sensor systems, with functionalities and features also beyond human capabilities, will play a fundamental role in a range of innovative applications in key sectors, from service to production, from healthcare to domestic use. Furthermore, these solutions must be able to guarantee the responsiveness, intelligibility, and adaptability necessary for natural human-robot, as well as robot-robot, collaboration and interaction. The close interaction between actuation and sensing also allows the implementation of algorithms for quick detection and response to failures in different embodiments of mechatronics systems. In this direction also move several players (e.g., EU Commission and single countries) by funding new research and innovation projects and opening calls for new proposals. Particular focus shall be placed on multidisciplinary methodological frameworks, hardware development for real-world applications and out-of-lab experiments. Manuscripts should contain both theoretical and experimental results and they will be subject to the normal TMECH review procedures. The topics of interest within the scope of this Special Section include, but not limited to, the following: ? Human-centric robotics. ? Multi-modal perception. ? Sensing and perception for grasping and manipulation. ? Smart-material-based actuation and sensing systems. ? Sensor fusion techniques. ? Integrated robot design for natural human-machine interaction. ? High-density/distributed actuation and sensing. ? Sensory-motor integration. ? Shared autonomy of redundancy control in human-robot interaction. ? Synergy of data and robotics. Manuscript Preparation: Papers must contain original contributions and be prepared in accordance with TMECH standards.

AI principles and methods play a crucial role in several areas of Robotics research (e.g., field, service, social robotics, etc.) and are pervasively exploited at various levels of robot architectures. We argue that robot intelligence is a property arising from the interaction between robots and their environment. As we expect robots to leave lab settings and to take part to our everyday life, either at home or in public spaces, the notion of AI as a separated and somewhat peculiar functionality of a robotic architecture shows its intrinsic limitations. On the contrary, the main motivation of AIRO 2024 is the belief that AI techniques must be considered at any levels of a robotic architecture, with respect to both hardware and software components. Sensing, representation and action can greatly benefit from the adoption of various forms of AI. The scientific relevance of the workshop is related to how diverse areas of AI research can be used to design robots able to face complex challenges in real-world tasks. The scope of AIRO 2024 encompasses such diverse yet intertwined research areas as sensing and perception, human-robot interaction, intelligent control, cognition and adaptation, behaviour and reasoning models, knowledge representation and computational ontologies, but also robot engineering tools, real-time software architectures and fast-prototyping techniques. Starting from these fields, and in continuity with the previous AIRO workshops, we will explore how robot intelligence is expected to play major roles when robots interact with humans and when dealing with everyday not predictable situations, like human assistance, housekeeping or autonomous driving, just to name three of the most common trendy scenarios nowadays. AIRO 2024 is part of an on-going effort to consolidate the Italian community working on various aspects of the intersection between AI and Robotics. To foster and strengthen this endeavor, the 11th edition of the AIRO workshop is organized in close synergy with the Transversal Project 4 (adjustable autonomy and physical embodied intelligence) of the FAIR (Future AI Research) national initiative. ** Workshop Format and submission** The workshop will include oral presentations, system demonstrations and posters related to the integration of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. Invited talks will complement presentations of contributed papers. Prospective authors wishing to give either an oral or poster presentation will be required to submit a 5-page extended abstract (not including references). People interested in showcasing live their work in the form of a demo, or showing videos of their work, will be required to submit a 1-page abstract describing the main relevant aspects of the demo/video. All the 5-page extended abstracts and the 1-page abstracts will form the Proceedings of the event, which will be published in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings AI*IA Series, as in previous Workshop editions, as well as on the workshop website. Additional submission and format details can be found at https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202408031348300143577&URLID=7&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=576C01B394ECC0A7AECE73176787EDA5&TT=1722692913593&ESN=o5efznrpsCxHgPeV3AaRWbhQmSj8pL%2BMCXtGbqpIB98%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYWlyby1haXhpYS5pdC9haXJvMjAyNC9zdWJtaXNzaW9ucw&HK=9A819B2DB9F98DD1DDBECA90B900330A5F937A656DA13CEF9296421627B319CF ** Important Dates ** Submission deadline: September 18, 2024 Notification of acceptance: October 5, 2024 Camera Ready: November 10, 2024 Workshop days: November 25-28 (TBA), 2024 ** Workshop Organizers ** Gloria Beraldo (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Roma, Italy) Alberto Castellini (Universita' di Verona, Verona, Italy) Alberto Finzi (Universita' di Napoli "Federico II", Naples, Italy) Fabio Patrizi (Sapienza, Universita' di Roma, Roma, Italy) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The defining trait of cobots is their ability to interact safely, efficiently, and intuitively with human partners, adapting to dynamic and uncertain environments. Recent advancements in learning-based systems propelled progress in enhancing such interactions, yet the seamless integration of cobots into everyday environments remains a significant challenge. This workshop aims to bring together leading experts from the robot learning and human-robot interaction communities to discuss the specific challenges and opportunities in advancing learning-based human-centered cobots. Workshop Topics The workshop will focus on, but is not limited to, the following guiding topics: Key Challenges in Human-Centered Collaboration: - What are the primary obstacles when deploying cobots in human-centric environments? - What are the unique benefits and challenges of using learning-based approaches for human-centered collaboration? Learning to Adapt and Improve in Real-World Situations: - How can cobots leverage information from humans and the environment to learn and adapt their actions in real-time? - Which approaches can ensure continual learning and adaptation in collaborative tasks? Innovative Learning Methods and Intuitive Interfaces: - How can recent progress in generative AI, such as foundation models and LLMs, be leveraged to enhance the capabilities of cobots in human-centric environments? - How can we utilize new communication interfaces (e.g., wearables and gestures) to ease and enhance human-robot interaction? Simulation and Real-World: - What are the pros and cons of learning from real-world data compared to simulated data for collaborative tasks? How to effectively model human behavior in simulation? - What are the potential approaches to bridge the sim-real gap for collaborative robotic tasks? Submission Instructions Papers covering ongoing work, under peer review, or published recently (including in the CoRL 2024 main conference track), are welcome. There will be no proceedings for this workshop. Paper submission format: - Format: CoRL conference paper template - Submissions must be anonymous, since papers will be peer-reviewed in double-blind mode. This includes potential links to supplementary videos and repositories. Submissions and reviews will not be released publicly. - Paper length: 4 to 8 pages, excluding references, acknowledgments, and appendices Accepted papers will be presented in-person during an interactive poster session, and selected papers will also be presented as spotlight talks. At least one of the authors needs to be present at the venue for each paper. Accepted papers will (optionally) be made available on the workshop website.

AI principles and methods play a crucial role in several areas of Robotics research (e.g., field, service, social robotics, etc.) and are pervasively exploited at various levels of robot architectures. We argue that robot intelligence is a property arising from the interaction between robots and their environment. As we expect robots to leave lab settings and to take part to our everyday life, either at home or in public spaces, the notion of AI as a separated and somewhat peculiar functionality of a robotic architecture shows its intrinsic limitations. On the contrary, the main motivation of AIRO 2024 is the belief that AI techniques must be considered at any levels of a robotic architecture, with respect to both hardware and software components. Sensing, representation and action can greatly benefit from the adoption of various forms of AI. The scientific relevance of the workshop is related to how diverse areas of AI research can be used to design robots able to face complex challenges in real-world tasks. The scope of AIRO 2024 encompasses such diverse yet intertwined research areas as sensing and perception, human-robot interaction, intelligent control, cognition and adaptation, behaviour and reasoning models, knowledge representation and computational ontologies, but also robot engineering tools, real-time software architectures and fast-prototyping techniques. Starting from these fields, and in continuity with the previous AIRO workshops, we will explore how robot intelligence is expected to play major roles when robots interact with humans and when dealing with everyday not predictable situations, like human assistance, housekeeping or autonomous driving, just to name three of the most common trendy scenarios nowadays. AIRO 2024 is part of an on-going effort to consolidate the Italian community working on various aspects of the intersection between AI and Robotics. To foster and strengthen this endeavor, the 11th edition of the AIRO workshop is organized in close synergy with the Transversal Project 4 (adjustable autonomy and physical embodied intelligence) of the FAIR (Future AI Research) national initiative. ** Workshop Format and submission** The workshop will include oral presentations, system demonstrations and posters related to the integration of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. Invited talks will complement presentations of contributed papers. Prospective authors wishing to give either an oral or poster presentation will be required to submit a 5-page extended abstract (not including references). People interested in showcasing live their work in the form of a demo, or showing videos of their work, will be required to submit a 1-page abstract describing the main relevant aspects of the demo/video. All the 5-page extended abstracts and the 1-page abstracts will form the Proceedings of the event, which will be published in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings AI*IA Series, as in previous Workshop editions, as well as on the workshop website. Additional submission and format details can be found at https://es.sonicurlprotection-fra.com/click?PV=2&MSGID=202409230556550257621&URLID=7&ESV=10.0.28.7941&IV=B020CCE6E6204B2CE9C07877EC02CA2B&TT=1727071022877&ESN=OrNkgHYsX%2F0AiCEFFRpEjOVxI98Ze4zF%2FKDirAyRFyM%3D&KV=1536961729280&B64_ENCODED_URL=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYWlyby1haXhpYS5pdC93b3Jrc2hvcHMvYWlybzIwMjQvc3VibWlzc2lvbnM&HK=0EC0907A45E82ACA1325E3D604AF0A711F060CE8DBCC9FC2156CB96642C914A4 ** Important Dates ** Submission deadline: September 25, 2024 Notification of acceptance: October 5, 2024 Camera Ready: November 10, 2024 Workshop days: November 25-28 (TBA), 2024 ** Workshop Organizers ** Gloria Beraldo (CNR, Roma, Italy) Alberto Castellini (Universita' di Verona, Verona, Italy) Alberto Finzi (Universita' di Napoli "Federico II", Naples, Italy) Fabio Patrizi (Sapienza, Universita' di Roma, Roma, Italy) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I would greatly appreciate your support! As you might know, I have volunteered in several critical IEEE RAS activities, which made me fully aware of this society?s strengths and weaknesses. I have listed my thoughts below in bullet point format (obviously these are in addition to the usual AdCom responsibilities and tasks, which I avoid to re-state here): * The IEEE RAS can benefit from ?lean thinking?, as a transformational framework to understand how to seek dynamic gains rather than static efficiencies. Rather than reviewing the overall society goals and preparing AdCom reports according to a standard format, I would set priorities year on year and strengthen each aspect one at a time. * Often, when making important decisions (e.g., whether to eliminate conference papers), we focus solely on productivity. However, I would like to emphasize the importance of fostering a sense of belonging through RAS initiatives, which is just as critical as metrics that enhance a CV. * We are at a very critical point in terms of conferences and events organization. In my opinion, we should take a step back and see how the two worlds of online and in-person conferences can be joined to create even better experiences in the future. This period gives us the best opportunity to create it! * I will work hard towards sustaining and strengthening our society?s meritocratic and performance-driven culture. I think, in part, it will be the governing members? duty to identify the talents and reflect their opinions in decision making processes. * IEEE RAS conferences are increasing in number. We need to make sure that this growth rate corresponds to the RAS population growth to ensure quality. If the former overtakes the latter, RAS publications? quality and credibility will be at risk. This needs a thorough analysis that should be done by RAS governing bodies. I sincerely thank you for considering and hopefully promoting my candidacy. Please also see my short bio below.

The conference covers a broad range of novel robotics methods and applications that demand the development of increasingly complex systems. Many open challenges in robotics require innovative solutions, as well as practical tools, libraries, and algorithms that can be readily integrated into new projects.
