Introduction
The advent of AI Agents in real-world decision making applications has made it important to ground the knowledge of AI Agents research focusing on Human-AI and AI-AI interaction. Such AI Agents can be personalized to assist humans in day-to-day tasks and can help improve planning, reasoning, navigation with AI models, especially large models to serve many use cases and are capable of taking actions in order to perform tasks aligned to humans’ goals.
Important Dates
Paper Submission Deadline: November 30th, 2024 (Anywhere on Earth).
Extended Paper Submission Deadline: December 3rd, 2024 (Anywhere on Earth).
Notification to Authors: December 12th, 2024.
Extended Notification to Authors: December 16th, 2024
Date of Workshop: March 3rd, 2025.

Any other Agentic Applications in the real world
Submission
We welcome paper contributions for the following submission tracks:
TRACK 1: Short Research Paper Track (4 pages)
TRACK 2: Long Research Paper Track (8 pages)
TRACK 3: Special Research Paper Track for Multimodal Agents in the Real World (4-8 pages)
TRACK 4: Survey Paper Track (4-8 pages)
Accepted survey papers will be consolidated by the academic-research industry coalition of AI Agents researchers for a joint survey paper submission to JMLR.
There will be best paper awards in each track.
Papers must follow AAAI-25 formatting guidelines and can be submitted to our OpenReview site https://openreview.net/group?id=AAAI.org/2025/Workshop/MARW. More details can be found on the MARW website.
MARW is non-archival, so please feel free to submit papers that will be submitted to other conferences.
Publication and Attendance
Accepted papers will be posted on the website. The authors of each accepted paper will have an opportunity to showcase their research to the AI Agents community on Monday, March 3rd. At least one author from each accepted paper is expected to attend.
