***************************************
International Workshop on NeuroBotics:
Bioinspired Computation for Robotics
****************************************
20 September 2004
Call for Papers ---------------
Substantial progress has been made recently in bio-inspired computation and robotics. This international workshop invites contributions to robotics which use methods of learning or artificial neural networks and/or are inspired by observations and results in neuroscience, cognitive science and animal behaviour.
Topics of interest include but are not restricted to: -------
Neural networks for robots Biomimetic robots Learning for robotics Cognitive robots Speech interfaces and neural networks Neural Vision Talking robots Spiking neural networks in robots Learning self localization and mapping Imitation and neural networks Cognitive Development in robots etc
Location -------- The workshop is organised as part of the 27th Conference on Artificial Intelligence (KI-2004) and runs parallel to the 34th Annual Meeting of the German Computer Science Society (Informatik 2004). The workshop will take place on September 20, 2004 at the University of Ulm, Germany.
Format ------ We invite contributions for half-hour talks and, if possible, additional short demonstrations. If we receive sufficient submissions of high quality, we plan to publish the revised articles of the workshop contributions in a journal or book.
Deadlines ---------
Please send either abstracts of one page or full papers up to 8 pages (and if appropriate, possible descriptions of demonstrations) until June 9, 2004 to the organisers email address below.
You will receive notification of acceptance, a more detailed workshop program and regarding the planned publication by July 5, 2004.
Workshop registration: until August 20, 2004.
Conference fees: will be not more than 100 Euro for the workshop. Registration at the conference will be optional.
