Deadline Extension: IJCAI-21 Call for Expressions of Robot Exhibition
Interest
****The deadline for the IJCAI-21 Call for Expressions of Robot Exhibition
Interest has been extended to May 21****
We are pleased to present the call for expressions of interest in the IJCAI
2021 Robot Exhibition. IJCAI is the major conference of the worldwide AI
community, and the Robot Exhibition will run alongside its technical
program. Robot systems serve as effective development, test, and validation
platforms for AI research. The IJCAI Robot Exhibition seeks to showcase the
state of the art in robotics systems for AI research - we are looking for
demonstrations of systems, software, tools, and competitions that would be
of interest to the broad AI community, including, but not limited to:
-
Single and multi-robot platforms
-
Sensor suites and support infrastructure
-
State of the art AI systems implementations, including perception
software, planning frameworks, etc.
-
Benchmark datasets or standardized simulator environments for evaluation
-
Open competitions to showcase leading examples of the above
Presentation Format
Due to the expected COVID-19 restrictions, IJCAI-21 Robot Exhibition is
planned as a virtual event. Each demo presented at IJCAI will consist of:
1.
A website of the demo, which includes a description of the contribution
and links to the technical content (video recording/activities, stated
below)
2.
A video recording associated with the exhibition activity (up to 2
minutes)
3.
An optional synchronous activity, e.g. a live remote demonstration
4.
An optional asynchronous interactive activity, e.g. a web based
simulator or user--executable software package
The synchronous / asynchronous interactive activities are optional, but
having one or more of those will increase the chances of the proposal to be
accepted.
Submission Instructions
At present, we are seeking expressions of interest for
-
Demonstrations and exhibits by universities, research organisations, or
companies
-
Proposals for robot competitions (note that competitions should be
virtual)
In keeping with the robotics exhibitions at past editions of IJCAI,
expressions of interest will be evaluated according to the following
criteria:
-
Relevance: What is the relevance of the shown demonstration/competition
to AI?
-
Understandability: How amenable is the showcase to technical and
non-technical audience?
Expressions of interest must be submitted via CMT, and should include the
following:
1.
A short description of the proposing group/company
2.
A description of the proposed activity, with reference to the two
criteria above (up to two pages)
3.
A short video demonstration (up to 2 minutes)
