Call for Papers
============
(Hybrid) Workshop on Scaling Robot Learning
IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA)
May 23th, 2022
Hybrid in both Philadelphia, USA and online
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/icra22-srl/
Overview
========
With an increased adoption of thousands of robots in various industries comes the question of how to better deploy physical robots “at scale”. In this workshop, we are specifically interested in the challenges connected to “scaling” machine learning for robotic applications. This includes topics on both the algorithmic advancements (self-supervised learning, lifelong learning, multi-task learning, etc), and the systems side (data-acquisition at scale, distributed training, real-world challenges in deploying and maintaining a fleet of thousands of robots). The goal of this workshop is to bring together experts from different communities, industry and academia, to discuss challenges and explore new directions towards scaling robot learning.
Topics
======
The focus topics for our workshop include, but are not restricted to:
Self-supervised learning for robotics, robot vision, reinforcement learning….
Lifelong learning
Multi-task learning
Data acquisition at scale
Multi robot systems / learning from fleets
Large scale robotics applications and systems
Scaling task specification via language/video conditioned policies
Submission Instructions
====================
We encourage participants to submit their research in the form of a single PDF. Submissions may be up to 4 pages in length, including figures, excluding references and any supplementary material. Please use the ICRA conference template. Accepted papers will be presented in a poster session and selected papers as spotlight talks. All submitted contributions will go through a single blind review process. The contributed papers will be made available on the website of the workshop. Selected papers will be invited for a special issue of a major robotics journal.
