dr
Piotr Wasilewski
Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences

Description

This track is a forum for bringing together researchers from academia and business to explore and discuss various approaches to dealing with the uncertainty in a broad range of AI systems and applications. The uncertainty can refer to indeterminism, incompleteness, vagueness, and many other aspects related to knowledge, information, and data. The elements of reasoning under uncertainty can be found in many practical areas, such as data science, robotics, simulations, video game industry, and so on.

 

We welcome the topics related to theories, methodologies, and applications in the fields of machine learning, knowledge representation, reasoning under uncertainty, and multi-agent systems. We also encourage contributions dedicated to probabilistic graphical models, fuzzy logic, rough sets, information granulation, and others. Last but not least, when it comes to machine learning, we are particularly interested in new approaches to estimation and utilization of aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty.

 

ROBOTICS AND AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS

Chairs

prof.
Piotr Skrzypczyński

.

prof.
Piotr Lipiński

Description

The track is devoted to the methods, algorithms and applications that belong to the broadly understood Artificial Intelligence and adaptive systems in robotics and related areas including but not limited to: autonomous vehicles, drones, human-machine interfaces including AR/VR, and various types of embodied agents. Artificial intelligence methods and algorithms, especially machine learning methods, are key factors in the progress of modern robotics. At the same time, many initiatives (e.g. the AI, Data and Robotics Partnership in Horizon Europe and Adra) emphasize the need for cooperation of various research and industrial communities that draw on the achievements of AI and apply AI-based methods in engineering, which we hope can be achieved thanks to the participation in this track. Therefore, we invite you to submit works for PP-RAI 2023 in the RAS track.

Description

The “Interdisciplinary Applications of Artificial Intelligence” track is a response to the ever-growing applications of artificial intelligence in interdisciplinary scientific and industrial research. The beneficiaries of artificial intelligence are both scientists, companies, institutions, and indirectly a human society benefiting from the contemporary achievements of science, including AI.  

The invitation is addressed to both academia (academic pass) and companies and institutions (business pass) that interdisciplinarily implement artificial intelligence techniques and methods in various projects.

The scope of the track includes and is not limited to:

  • food and nutrition technology;
  • energy saving and sustainability;
  • game development; – material engineering;
  • mechanical engineering and mobility;
  • business and economy;
  • chemical sciences;
  • construction and architecture;


An additional value will be the presentation of the results of scientific and research projects, which, in addition to its popularisation value, will provide a valuable source of inspiration for the academic community.
