RSS 2024 Workshop on Semantics for Robotics: From Environment Understanding and Reasoning to Safe Interaction
Workshop Overview
This workshop aims to bring together researchers working on various aspects of semantics for robotics, including perception, learning, mapping, and control, to foster discussions on innovative approaches that harness semantic understanding for the design and deployment of intelligent embodied systems.
Call for Papers
The workshop invites researchers to submit novel ideas and approaches on topics such as perception methods incorporating semantic, geometric, and multi-modal information, efficient 3D object and environment representations, uncertainty estimation, contextual reasoning, safe motion planning, robot skill acquisition, multi-agent collaboration, and foundation-model-based perception and decision-making methods.
