[robocup-humanoid] Fwd: [robocup-worldwide] [meetings] International RoboCup Symposium 2015 - CFP

Thu Mar 19 07:35:06 EDT 2015

Dear All,

please consider submitting papers on work in the humanoid league.

If you do not have the time or the material for a full paper, please consider asking others to join forces and combine your effort. Should there be any cases like this, please do not hesitate to post your idea on this mailing list or ask humanoid league OC and TC for assistance.

Regards

Reinhard Gerndt
(Humanoid League OC/TC)

> OVERVIEW
> 
> The 19th Annual RoboCup International Symposium will be held in 
> conjunction with RoboCup 2015. The Symposium is a primary venue for 
> presentation and discussion of scientific contributions to a variety 
> of research areas related to all RoboCup divisions (RoboCup Soccer, 
> RoboCup Rescue, RoboCup at Home, RoboCup at Work, and RoboCup 
> Junior). Its scope includes, but is not restricted to, research and 
> educational activities in robotics and artificial intelligence.  
> 
> Due to its interdisciplinary nature, the Symposium offers a unique 
> venue for exploring both theory and practice in wide spectrum of 
> research fields. The experimental, interactive, and benchmark 
> character of the RoboCup initiative presents an opportunity to 
> disseminate novel ideas and promising technologies, rapidly adopted 
> and field-tested by a large, and still growing, community.  
> 
> 
> SUBMISSION
> 
> We solicit submissions of papers reporting high-quality, original 
> research with relevance to the areas mentioned below. Researchers in 
> these areas, even if not actively participating in RoboCup teams, are 
> urged to submit their work. We welcome both papers describing real-
> world research and papers reporting theoretical results, as well as 
> combinations thereof.  We also encourage the submission of high-
> quality overview articles for any field related to the general scope 
> of RoboCup.  
> 
> The proceedings of the RoboCup International Symposium are published 
> and archived within the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Artificial 
> Intelligence (LNAI) series. Submitted papers are limited to 12 pages 
> formatted according to the LNAI requirements 
> (http://www.springer.com/series/1244) and must be electronically 
> submitted through the symposium web site: 
> https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=robocupsymposium2015 All 
> contributions are peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers.  
> 
> 
> DEVELOPMENT TRACK
> 
> To encourage open-source release of hardware and software components, 
> a special track on open-source development will be part of the 2015 
> RoboCup International Symposium. Contributions to this track are 
> limited to eight pages, formatted according to LNAI requirements. 
> Contributions should include evidence of impact of the released 
> component on the RoboCup community. Review of these contributions 
> will be based on technical contribution and benefit to the RoboCup 
> community.
