Call for Contributions: NeurIPS Workshop on Goal-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning

[idur...@gmail.com]

tldr: Submit to the NeurIPS 2023 Workshop on Goal-Conditioned RL by submitting a video or 2-page paper by October 4th.

Hello all,

I'm co-organizing a NeurIPS workshop on goal-conditioned RL. If you work on algorithms or applications of goal-conditioned RL (broadly defined), you should consider submitting! For more details, check out the formal call for papers below and the website: https://goal-conditioned-rl.github.io/2023/

For questions, please reach out to gcrlwo...@gmail.com.

Regards,

NeurIPS 2023 Workshop on Goal-Conditioned RL

Website: https://goal-conditioned-rl.github.io/2023/

Areas of Interest:

• Algorithms. We encourage both proposals of new methods, as well as analyses and/or evaluations of existing ones.
• Connections between goal-conditioned RL and other ML areas (e.g., representation learning, self-supervised learning, GANs, probabilistic inference, metric learning, duality).
• Applications of goal-conditioned decision making. In addition to common decision making tasks (e.g., robotics and games) and goal-conditioned applications (e.g., instruction-following, molecular discovery), we especially encourage work in goal-conditioned domains where GCRL is not (yet) the mainstream strategy

Submission details:

• All anonymous submissions will be managed through OpenReview. For video submission, natural voice narration is still considered anonymized, but don't show authors' faces or names.
• Format: choose one of the following:
  • A report in the NeurIPS style with at most 2 pages (no limit on appendices)
  • A video (e.g., a narrated slide deck, a video of a talk) in mp4 format lasting at most 5 minutes.
• One author of each submission volunteers serves as a reviewer, responsible for reviewing up to 3 submissions.
• We have a small number of free conference registrations, which we will offer to authors from historically underrepresented groups.

Important dates:

• Submission deadline: October 4th, 2023
• Acceptance notification: October 18th, 2023
• Workshop: December 15th, 2023

Invited Speakers:

• Reuth Mirsky, Bar Ilan University
• Olexandr Isayev, Carnegie Mellon University
• Susan Murphy, Harvard University
• Yonatan Bisk, Carnegie Mellon University
• Gianluca Baldassarre, Italian Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies

Organizers: Ishan Durugkar (Sony AI), Ben Eysenbach (Princeton University), Jason Ma (University of Pennsylvania), Andi Peng (MIT), Tongzhou Wang (MIT), Amy Zhang (UT Austin)
