As such, ICDL is a unique conference gathering<o:p></o:p> researchers from computer science, robotics, psychology and<o:p></o:p> developmental studies.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> ICDL is a highly selective annual international conference that aims to<o:p></o:p> showcase and share the very best interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary<o:p></o:p> research on how humans and animals develop sensing, reasoning and actions.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> ICDL community focusses on the understanding of how biological agents<o:p></o:p> take advantage of interaction with social and physical environments to<o:p></o:p> develop their cognitive capabilities. Moreover, how this knowledge can<o:p></o:p> be used to improve future computing and robotic systems.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> We invite submissions for the conference to explore, extend, and<o:p></o:p> consolidate the interdisciplinary boundaries of this exciting research<o:p></o:p> field.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> ==== Scope and Topics ====<o:p></o:p> The primary list of topics of interest includes, but not limited to:<o:p></o:p> - principles and theories of development and learning;<o:p></o:p> - development of skills in biological systems and robots;<o:p></o:p> - nature vs nurture, developmental stages;<o:p></o:p> - models on the contributions of interaction to learning;<o:p></o:p> - verbal, non-verbal and multi-modal interaction;<o:p></o:p> - models on active learning;<o:p></o:p> - architectures for lifelong learning;<o:p></o:p> - emergence of body and affordance perception;<o:p></o:p> - analysis and modelling of human motion and state;<o:p></o:p> - models for prediction, planning and problem solving;<o:p></o:p> - models of human-human and human-robot interaction;<o:p></o:p> - emergence of verbal and non-verbal communication;<o:p></o:p> - epistemological foundations and philosophical issues;<o:p></o:p> - robot prototyping of human and animal skills;<o:p></o:p> - ethics and trust in computational intelligence and robotics;<o:p></o:p> - social learning in humans, animals, and robots.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> ==== Submissions ====<o:p></o:p> Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers of six<o:p></o:p> pages with the possibility of two-extra pages at a fee. Submissions are<o:p></o:p> in the IEEE conference template. Submission will be selected for either<o:p></o:p> oral or poster presentation based on the reviews.
