Programming (ICLP 2023 <https://iclp2023.imperial.ac.uk/home>)at 
Imperial College London, UK.


Note, that as well as original, unpublished work, we encourage

    Formal verification of system behaviour

  *

    Explainable and interpretable AI

  *

    Knowledge representation and reasoning

  *

    Neurosymbolic AI

  *

    Safe multi-agent systems

  *

    Coordination and cooperative AI

  *

    Fairness, bias, and algorithmic discrimination

  *

    AI ethics and value alignment

  *

    Robustness and failures of generalisation

  *

    AI policy and regulation, including the use of agent-based modeling
    to better understand the consequences of such policy

  *

    The use of norms for ensuring alignment of multi-agent systems with
    certain values


Submissions


STAI23 aims to encourage discussion and sharing of ideas, and to build 
connections between people working in related areas. There will not be 
any published proceedings for STAI23; this allows us to welcome not only 
original, unpublished papers, but also papers that have been published 
in a relevant conference or journal, and work that is under review at 
other relevant venues.


STAI23 offers three types of submissions.

  *

    Regular original papers (8 pages + references) will present more
    mature work that includes some (perhaps preliminary) results, that
    has not been previously published nor accepted for publication, nor
    is currently under review by another conference or journal.

  *

    Short original papers (4 pages + references) are intended for less
    well-developed work, where results may still be forthcoming, that
    has not been previously published nor accepted for publication, nor
    is currently under review by another conference or journal.

  *

    Published papers or papers under review (up to 15 pages, in the
    original submitted format) reporting on interesting and relevant
    work that has been published (or accepted for publication) in the
    last 18 months or is currently under review at another venue.


It is the authors’ responsibility to ensure that submitting a published 
paper, or paper under review, does not violate the conditions of the 
venue where that work has previously been submitted/published.

Authors of accepted papers may be invited to give a talk or present a 
poster. There will be a prize for the best paper and a prize for the 
best poster. We will not give prizes to submissions in the published 
papers track.
