CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS
The IJCAI 2009 Robot Learning by Demonstration (LbD) Challenge, held in conjunction with the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, welcomes contributions that demonstrate physically embodied robots learning a task or skill from a human teacher. This year, we aim to bring together several research/commercial groups to demonstrate complete platforms performing relevant LbD tasks. Our long-term aim is to define increasingly challenging experiments for future LbD events and greater scientific understanding of the area.
CONTRIBUTIONS can include live hardware demonstrations and/or short video clips, showcasing Learning by Demonstration abilities. Those interested in contributing should submit a 1-2 page proposal, by March 1 2009, containing the following information:
- the names and affiliation of the exhibitors;
- a summary of the objectives and methods of the underlying research;
- description of the LbD demonstration;
- citations to any relevant or supporting papers;
- if you are proposing a live hardware demonstration, a list and short description of the hardware you will be using at the Challenge.
SUBMISSION can be done online at:
http://www.easychair.org/
Notifications of acceptance will be sent out by March 20, 2009.
TRAVEL SUPPORT may be possible for selected participants and their hardware, depending on available funds and level of demand.
MISSION: the IJCAI 2009 Challenge will serve as the foundation for more focused and commonly pursued challenges for AAAI 2010 and beyond. Please visit the Challenge website for more details: http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~
