Topics of Interest
- Human Robot Interaction: Design and evaluation of communication, collaboration, and trust between humans and robotic systems.
- Cognitive Robotics: Robots equipped with reasoning, learning, and planning capabilities that go beyond fixed, pre-programmed behavior.
- Robotic Prosthetics: Design and control of robotic limbs and assistive devices that restore or augment human physical capability.
- Swarm Intelligence: Coordination algorithms for large numbers of simple agents or robots achieving complex collective behavior.
- Real-Time Learning: Algorithms that allow robotic and autonomous systems to adapt and learn from data as it is generated, without offline retraining.
- Self-Constructing Systems: Robotic or computational systems capable of reconfiguring or building their own structure or software in response to task demands.
- Bio-Inspired Robotics: Robot design and control strategies drawn from biological movement, sensing, and morphology.
- Continual Learning in Robotics: Methods that let robots accumulate knowledge and skills over time without forgetting previously learned tasks.
- Neuro-Robotic Interfaces: Direct interfaces between neural signals and robotic control systems for prosthetics, rehabilitation, or augmentation.
- Industry 5.0: Human-centric, resilient, and sustainable manufacturing paradigms that pair robotics and AI with human expertise on the factory floor.
Submission Guidelines
- We accept initial submission in PDF format only.
- In adherence to the double-blind peer review policy, please ensure your paper contains no identifying author information like author details, university and country information.
- Authors are responsible for ensuring their papers are thoroughly checked and proofread prior to submission. No revisions are permitted during the review process. If accepted, the authors may make minor revisions before final publication to address any identified areas for improvement.
- You will be able to include full author details in the camera-ready submission, following the specified format. Author names, email addresses, and their sequence will be considered final as per the submitted camera-ready version.
- Submissions are expected to be primarily original. While up to 25% of the text may be drawn from prior publications by the same authors, provided proper citation is included, at least 75% of the manuscript must consist of new, unpublished material.
Formatting Guidelines
- The maximum manuscript length is 18 pages for the main text, exclusive of references and appendices up to 7 pages. Submissions exceeding this limit may be considered by the chair, particularly in the case of review or survey articles.
- Submissions must present original research relevant to the conference topics.
- Authors must ensure the accuracy of all sections in their paper.
- The abstract should adhere to the 150-250 word limit as per the conference guidelines.
- Place figures and tables where they are discussed in the text, and make sure they are clear and easy to read.
- All figures, tables, references, appendices, algorithms, annexures, and supplementary materials must be clearly numbered, properly cited in the text.
- Tables must be neatly aligned within the page margins and must not overflow the page boundaries.
- Figure captions and table headings should be concise, unique, and ideally limited to a maximum of two lines.
- References should be formatted correctly and consistently, including all the necessary details such as, author names, paper titles, publication sources, and years. Every reference listed must be cited in the main text.
- The use of foreign languages in the manuscript is not allowed unless accompanied by a corresponding English translation.
- Manuscripts are required to adhere to the formatting guidelines specified in the provided template.
Review Process
Submissions will undergo double-blind peer review. To ensure anonymity, please omit all author-identifying information from your manuscript, including names, affiliations, and any funding or other acknowledgments. Citations and mentions of closely related prior work should also be anonymized.
All submitted papers will be reviewed by a minimum of three regular program committee members or two senior program committee members. Acceptance decisions will be based on assessments of novelty, technical depth, elegance, impact (both practical and theoretical), and presentation quality.
- Original: Exploring a new idea, project, issue, or offering new insights/perspectives on existing research/information.
- Engaging: Interactive and audience-engaging, or addressing research community needs.
- Significant: Addressing key issues related to improving current techniques' effectiveness, with easily understood and widely applicable content.
- Quality: Substantiated by adequate data, referencing relevant existing work, and honestly acknowledging limitations.
- Relevant: Aligned with at least one of the conference's designated tracks.
Use of AI-Assisting Tools
The conference permits the responsible use of Generative AI (GenAI) tools in manuscript preparation. Authors are required to observe the following:
- Declare Usage – Any use of GenAI must be disclosed in the manuscript (e.g., in a Declaration on Generative AI section).
- Maintain Responsibility – Authors must critically review and edit AI-assisted text; unedited AI output is not acceptable.
- No AI Authorship – GenAI tools cannot be listed as authors. Authorship is limited to humans who take full responsibility for the work.
- Limit Role of AI – GenAI may support drafting and language refinement, but the development of scientific ideas, arguments, results, and conclusions must be carried out by human authors.
- Accountability – Authors remain fully accountable for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of their manuscripts.
Note: Non-compliance with these guidelines will be treated as academic misconduct and may result in the removal of published work.
