[agents] [meetings] RO-MAN 2025: Call For Proposals of Special Sessions

[Silvia Rossi]

Dear colleagues (Apologies for cross-posting),


we are very pleased to invite you to submit your latest research results,
developments, and ideas to the 34th IEEE International Conference on Robot
and Human Interactive Communication, which will be held at the Eindhoven
University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands, from August 25th to
29th, 2025.

Call for Proposals of Special Session and Papers of Special Sessions

#############################################################


The goal of special sessions is to provide a forum for focused oral
presentations featuring emerging topics or innovative applications of
established approaches. A typical special session consists of four to six
papers, each addressing a particular theme or presenting work done in an
international project or network. Each Special session is expected to run
for 80 minutes ~ to 2 hours.

All submitted Special Session papers will be subject to the same
peer-review process as regular papers and will be included in the main
conference proceedings (IEEE Xplore Digital Library).

The theme of the IEEE RO-MAN 2025 is “*Shaping our hybrid future with
robots together*.”

While robots become increasingly more able to socially interact with
people, it is important to start thinking about how we can shape a future
with these robots in which we collaborate and work together with these new
team members that are on the horizon. Rather than replacing us, our vision
is that robots will complement us. We envision a hybrid intelligence where
robots and humans together will be more able, effective, productive,
efficient, and fun to work with. To realize a successful integration of
these socially interactive robots into our society, we need to invest in a
future where human-robot teams could become prevalent. To this end, we need
to create a clear vision of this future and create innovations related to
interaction models, social capabilities, and the skills of these robots to
understand how they can work together with us.



The conference provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to
discuss a variety of topics related to the broad theme of Robot and Human
Interactive Communication involving theories, methodologies, technologies,
empirical and experimental studies, and generate more insights for the
future of Robot and Human Interactive Communication!



Please visit the office website, https://www.ro-man2025.org, for more
information.

The format of RO-MAN 2025 will be "hybrid".
