AAMAS 2017 Robotics Track

---------------

We invite papers that advance theory and application of single and
multiple robots. Papers on the interaction between robots and agents
(broadly defined) are particularly welcome, but all papers at the
intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics are welcome.


Papers are solicited in all areas, including, but not restricted to:

Human-robot interaction

Robot communication and teamwork

Machine learning for robotics

Mapping, localization and exploration

Architectures for teams of robots

Networked robot/sensor systems, distributed robotics

Robot planning and plan execution (including action and motion planning)

Robot teams, multi-robot systems, robot coordination

Robotic agent languages and middleware for robot systems

Swarms and collective behavior

Modular robotics


Information for Authors

---------------

Submissions to the Robotics Track will follow AAMAS procedures and
will be rigorously peer reviewed and evaluated on the basis of the
overall quality of their technical contribution, including criteria
such as originality, soundness, relevance, significance, quality of
presentation, and understanding of the state of the art.


Submissions are limited to 8 pages in length, with any additional
pages containing only bibliographic references. Reviews will be double
blind; authors must avoid including anything that can be used to
identify them. Please note that submitting an abstract is required to
submit a full paper. However, the abstracts will not be reviewed and
full papers must be submitted for the review process to begin.  All
work must be original (i.e., it must not have appeared in a conference
proceedings, book, or journal and may not be under review for another
archival conference).


The review process for the special tracks will be the same as for the
main track, but with program committee members specially selected for
each track (i.e., they will be selected from the robotics community).
All accepted papers for the special tracks will be included in the
proceedings.


Robotics Track Chairs

---------------

Christopher Amato (Northeastern University, USA)

Alessandro Farinelli (University of Verona, IT)


About AAMAS

---------------

AAMAS is the leading scientific conference for research in autonomous
agents and multiagent systems. The AAMAS conference series was
initiated in 2002 by merging three highly respected meetings: the
International Conference on Multi-Agent Systems (ICMAS); the
International Workshop on Agent Theories, Architectures, and Languages
(ATAL); and the International Conference on Autonomous Agents (AA).
The aim of the joint conference is to provide a single, high-profile,
internationally respected archival forum for scientific research in
the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent systems.


General Information

---------------

All full papers accepted to the main track and the special tracks will
be presented in parallel technical sessions. All the papers will be
published in the conference proceedings and will be permanently
available after the conference at  www.ifaamas.org/proceedings.html.In
addition, AAMAS 2017 will include:

Workshops

Demonstrations

Poster presentations for full papers and extended abstracts

Invited talks and panel discussions

The submission processes for the workshops and demonstrations are
separate from the main paper submission process. Information will be
posted on the relevant pages.
