Session details: IRMAS - intelligent robotics and multi-agent systems track

Abstract

The special track on Intelligent Robotics and Multi-Agent Systems (IRMAS) focuses on all aspects of intelligent robotics and multi-agent systems (MAS) including related areas and applications. Its primary goal is to exploit synergies between robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), more precisely between intelligent robotics and MAS, and bring together researchers from both fields. For many years, robotics and AI researchers have worked separately, both fields have matured enormously, and today there is a growing interest in getting the two research fields together. Many in robotics believe that the focus in the near future should be adding capabilities to robots that lie at the core of AI research. Reciprocally, AI researchers aim at embedding their techniques in physical robots that can perceive, reason and act in real, dynamic environments.
