AL-EMCOM2025: Workshop on Emergence and Evolution of Language and
Communication in ALIFE 2025
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the AL-EMCOM2025 Workshop as a part of
ALIFE2025, and invite poster presentation submissions from researchers
across various disciplines.
- Dates
Date: October 6-19th, 2025 (tentative)
Venue: Kyoto Industrial Hall, Kyoto, Japan
https://www.ksk.or.jp/
- Aim of the workshop
The emergence of language and communication has been a major theme in
artificial life research, beginning with studies on the evolution of
communication protocols (Werner and Dyer 1991), naming games (Steels,
1995), and iterated learning (Kirby, 2001), with methodologies that have
expanded across multiple fields including robotics, linguistics, cognitive
science, evolutionary theory, philosophy, and complex systems sciences.
In recent years, the rapid advances of large language models have enabled
artificial intelligence with sophisticated language processing
capabilities, heightening expectations for AGI. However, numerous
challenges remain concerning the origins of language—the source of
"intelligence"—and its grounding in the real world.
To address these challenges, research on "Emergent Communication," which
approaches from a constructive perspective based on technological progress
in deep learning and large language models, has gathered attention.
Emergent Communication aims to model the process of language emergence and
evolution. It is an interdisciplinary field where various research domains
intersect, such as symbol emergence robotics, language evolution, and
multi-agent reinforcement learning for communication.
This workshop aims to provide an interdisciplinary forum where
researchers from various fields can gather to share and discuss the latest
research findings on symbol emergence, emergence of communication, and
language evolution. We hope to return to the foundational principles of
artificial life research while integrating cutting-edge technologies.
Through this, we seek to explore new research questions and strengthen
cross-disciplinary collaboration.
- Call for Contributions
We invite poster presentations related to the workshop topics.
Topics of Interest (including but not limited to):
Symbol emergence and language emergence
Emergent communication
Language evolution
Multi-agent reinforcement learning for communication
Symbol emergence robotics
Naming games and language games
Iterated learning and language change
Large language models and emergent linguistic phenomena
Related research areas
- Important Dates
Poster Presentation Submission Deadline: July 31st, 2025
Workshop Date: October 6-10th, 2025 (tentative)
- Tentative Program
Opening and plenary talk: 30 minutes
Poster presentation: 60 minutes
Additional details will be announced
