<p>Title of the WorkShop: SA WS9 Cognitive Robotics</p>
<br>
Organizers:<br>
Antonio Chella, Full Professor at University of Palermo, <br>
Antonio Sgorbissa, Associate Professor at University of Genova<br>
<br>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
