9th Workshop on Collaboration of Humans, Agents, Robots, Machines and Sensors (CHARMS 2023)

 

Cyber physical systems (CPS) and robots are becoming more involved in the lives of humans. All indications point to a future where many varieties of CPS, robots, and humans co-exist and, at a minimum, must interact consistently through life’s tasks. This workshop will explore ideas of the future to understand, discern, and develop the relationships between humans, robots, and CPS and the practical nature of software agents to facilitate the integration.

​

The general interest of this workshop is the research intersection between humans, agents, robots, machines, and sensors. Specifically, how agents can be used in the modeling, design, implementation, and experimentation of these complex systems. Intersecting humans and CPS are agents and multiagent systems tasked to map interaction, communication, and networked relationships.

​

The goals of this workshop are to provide a forum to exchange ideas, present results, share experiences, and enhance collaborations among researchers, practitioners, and developers in numerous areas of communicative interfaces between humans, robots, and other entities.

Topics:

  • Human-centered agents

  • Indistinguishability between agents, robots, machines, sensors, and humans

  • Conversational ubiquitous systems

  • Human-robot social interaction

  • Service robots and agents

  • Conversational agents

  • Humans and the Internet-of-things (IoT)

  • Humanoid assistance and rehabilitation robots

  • Wearable computing and wearable robotics

  • Wearable companion robots and agents

  • Human behavior modeling and activity recognition

  • Ubiquitous robots and agent challenges

  • Autonomic capabilities and semantic reasoning

  • Social awareness

  • Human activities monitoring

  • Social interaction of robots

 

Goals:

  • 12 papers, all day workshop (1 day )

  • 1 Panel discussion or invited talk
