Please use the chance of presenting your work on imitation learning to a wider communities (note: abstracts fully suffice for submissions) and see what leaders in the field such as Drew Bagnell, Pieter Abbeel, Aude Billard, Emo Todorov, Sethu Vijayakumar, Umar Syed, Rajesh Rao, and Manuel Lopes, are working on!
Best wishes, -Jan ================================= Workshop: New Developments in Imitation Learning Conference: ICML 2011 Date: Saturday, July 2, 2011 Location: Bellevue, Washington, USA Website: http://www.robot-learning.de/Research/ICML2011 In the field of imitation learning, we have seen a dramatic growth over the past decade in many different ways: in terms of newly developed algorithms, new successful applications and new scientific challenges for understanding both the computational and the neuronal aspects of imitation. Moreover, imitation is a complex learning problem related to many fields of Machine Learning, including supervised and semi-supervised learning, learning with structured data, transfer learning, reinforcement learning, multi-agent learning, and online learning. Imitation Learning is also an essential technology for robotics, one of the main goals of this workshop is to bring together roboticists along with Machine Learning researchers. The workshop will have an awesome set of invited speakers including Drew Bagnell, Pieter Abbeel, Aude Billard, Emo Todorov, Sethu Vijayakumar, Umar Syed, Rajesh Rao, and Manuel Lopes. For this workshop, we are seeking researchers who want to present high-quality recent or ongoing work on all aspects of imitation learning. Both theoretical and applied work is solicited. An extended abstract suffices for a poster submission. Additionally, we welcome position papers, as well as papers discussing potential future research directions. Submissions and Publication Both extended abstracts and position/future research statements will be reviewed by program committee members on the basis of relevance, significance, and clarity. Accepted contributions will be presented as posters but particularly exciting work may be considered for talks. Submissions should be formatted according to the conference templates and submitted via email to [email protected]. Important Dates April 29 - Deadline of submission May 20 - Notification of Acceptance July 2 - Workshop Proper Organizing Committee Abdeslam Boularias, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems Brian Ziebart, Robotics Institute of Carnegie Mellon University Jan Peters, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems _______________________________________________ uai mailing list [email protected] https://secure.engr.oregonstate.edu/mailman/listinfo/uai
