Dear Colleagues, We are now accepting submissions to the *Robotics for People: Perspectives on Interaction, Learning, and Safety* workshop, to be held at the Robotics: Science and Systems 2021 conference.
This is a full-day workshop that aims to bring together experts from the Human-Robot Interaction, Machine Learning, and Motion Planning communities to create a road map for safer, smarter robots. Our workshop accepts *extended abstracts* (2 pgs excluding references) and *short/position papers* (4 pgs excluding references) in IEEE two column format. Papers will undergo a double-blind peer review process, and accepted papers and posters will be hosted on our website. We are a non-archival workshop, meaning we also accept iterations on previous or ongoing work. The workshop will include keynote talks, a panel debate, a poster session, and short talks for accepted papers. Topics for submission include (but are not limited to): - Decision-making under uncertainty and safety-oriented approaches - Safety considerations in uncertain, interactive settings - Safety-critical applications for HRI - Probabilistic models for robot learning - Social navigation - Human-robot collaboration and human behavior modeling - Multi-agent approaches for human-robot teams - Calibrating and estimating uncertainty in learned models - Learning from demonstration - Human-interactive robot learning - Cognitive architectures for interactive robots - HRI datasets, metrics, and benchmarks - Robot-interpretable human models - Explainability, transparency, and interpretability More information is available at our website: https://sites.google.com/view/r4p2021/ **** Important Dates **** Paper Submission: June 20th, 2021, anywhere on Earth Notification of Acceptance: July 1st, 2021, anywhere on Earth Camera-ready Deadline: July 12th, 2021, anywhere on Earth **** Confirmed Speakers ****Yiannis Demiris, Imperial College London, UK Stefanie Tellex, Brown University, USA Dan Bohus, Microsoft AI Research, USA Changliu Liu, Carnegie Mellon University, USA **** Organizing Committee **** *General Chairs:* Matthew Gombolay (Georgia Institute of Technology) Shreyas Kousik (Stanford University) *Program Chairs:* Tesca Fitzgerald (Carnegie Mellon University) Amir Aly (University of Plymouth) *Invited Speaker Chairs:* Kim Baraka (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) Filipa Correia (University of Lisbon) *Social Chairs:* Andrea Bajcsy (University of California Berkeley) SiQi Zhou (University of Toronto) David Fridovich-Keil (Stanford University) Angela P.
