CALL FOR PAPERS

IROS 2019 Workshop on Deep Probabilistic Generative Models for Cognitive Architecture in Robotics
Web: https://sites.google.com/site/dpgmcar2019/

Submission deadline: September 20, 2019

OBJECTIVES
==========
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from robotics and machine learning to share knowledge about deep and probabilistic generative models to develop a future cognitive architecture for robots. The workshop also aims at examining the challenges and opportunities emerging from the interdisciplinary research field covering machine learning, cognitive science, and robotics. Success in deep learning has enabled robots to recognize their environment, e.g., visual and speech recognition, and to learn behaviors efficiently, e.g., reinforcement and imitation learning. However, most of the success in deep learning is heavily depending on labeled data or hand-crafted reward functions that need to be prepared before the learning process.

INVITED SPEAKERS
================
We will have distinguished speakers who are the forerunners of this interdisciplinary research effort.

Kenji Doya, OIST
Igor Mordatch, OpenAI
Masahiro Suzuki, Tokyo University
Tomoaki Nakamura, The University of Electro-Communications
Douwe Kiela, Facebook AI Research USA

SUBMISSION
==========
Submissions must be in PDF following the IEEE conference style in two-columns and be limited to 2 pages:
http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php
