About the AIFORS Colloquia

The AIFORS Colloquia is a series of small, invitation-only, face-to-face group meetings that focus on a small number of important research questions in the field of AI and robotics. They aim to open up new avenues of research, propose solutions and strategies for theoretical, technological, and societal problems, and establish fruitful new collaborations. High-level, internationally recognized researchers from diverse backgrounds in terms of gender, nationality, and career stage are invited. The style of the meetings is informal, and allows for in-depth, unconventional discussions, and encourages informal exchanges between participants.

The 1st AIFORS Colloquim

The first colloquium, to be held on March 19, 2024, focuses on the research challenges and the potential enormous synergies arising from the fusion of (physics-aware) deep neural networks, soft robot and agent embodiments, and neuromorphic computing. What are the challenges? Where are the potential solutions? What research strategy do we need?
