" *The Development of the Self: from self-perception to interaction
under uncertainty* ", a full-day workshop at the IEEE International
Conference on Developmental Learning and Epigenetic Robotics
(ICDL-EpiRob 2017), to be held in Lisbon, Portugal, on September 18, 2017.
This is the first interdisciplinary workshop that brings together
roboticists, psychologists and cognitive scientists to address
self-construction from a sensorimotor point of view and to discuss the
challenges and possibilities arising for building real life robots. The
development of intelligent behaviour depends strongly on active
exploration and sensorimotor interactions with the world. However, it is
not clear how multimodal sensorimotor temporal and spatial associations
could be integrated into a single representation of the self or an
individual sense of agency or ownership. What is a sensorimotor self?
How can sensorimotor learning ground the development of the self? And
what could be the benefits of having an integrated bodily self-model in
order to support effective actions in an uncertain world (e.g., through
prediction)?
The goal of the WS is to: i) shed some light on the development and
construction of the sensorimotor self; ii) discuss computational models
that use self-perceptive learning as a basis for active interaction and
agency inference; and iii) propose the steps toward future
interdisciplinary research regarding the active self concept.

**** *Call for contributions (detailed)* ****
Participants are required to submit a 1-2 pages extended abstract or
short paper (no more than 4 pages) of relevant work. Publications to be
presented at the main conference (ICDL-Epirob 2017) are also welcome.
Accepted contributions will be presented during the workshop as posters
or to present their work/ideas in a poster session and up to 4 selective
submissions will give a 15 min talk at the workshop. Please indicate in
your email if you want to present your work as a poster or/and in an
oral presentation.
Please submit your abstract to the workshop’s official email address
selfception.works...@gmail.com indicating [ICDL 2017 Workshop]. The
template for the extended abstracts is IEEE conference style (two-columns).
