ABiALS is designed to help investigate how anticipations can influence, initiate, and guide behavior and learning as well as how anticipatory influences can be implemented in an adaptive learning system. Submission deadline: Wednesday, 15. JUNE 2006 Anticipatory behavior is a mechanism, or a behavior, that does not only depend on the past and present but also on predictions, expectations, or beliefs about the future. ___________________________________________________________________________ OBJECTIVES: After two previous successful gatherings during SAB 2002, resulting in the Springer-Verlag LNCS 2684 State-of-the-Art survey named after the workshop, and SAB2004, ABiALS 2006 will continue to explore anticipatory influences on behavior and learning. The aim of ABiALS 2006 is to join researchers in their understanding and development of anticipatory mechanisms in adaptive behavior. It is aimed for an interdisciplinary gathering that combines the expertise of researchers from various disciplines including neuroscience, cognitive psychology, machine learning, artificial intelligence, control, and vision research to shed further light on the concept of anticipation. Essentially, it will be discussed how knowledge about the future can influence actual behavioral mechanisms, including influences on attention, action decision making and control, as well as (behavioral and model) learning. ___________________________________________________________________________ KEY INTERESTS: Anticipatory mechanisms for model learning ? Adaptive, predictive model learning ? Adaptive, predictive filtering ? Anticipatory attention ? Surprise for model learning ? Hierarchical, predictive model architectures ?

The workshop is not limited to one particular type of anticipatory learning system or a particular representation of anticipations. The workshop will be generally targeted towards short presentations and extended discussions. The advantages and disadvantages of different anticipatory mechanisms and representations will be discussed in detail. Several discussion sessions on the topics in question will put the presentations in a broader perspective. Papers should be submitted electronically to one of the organizers via email in pdf or ps format. Electronic submission is strongly encouraged. If you cannot submit your contribution electronically, please contact one of the organizers. Submitted papers should have a maximal length of ten pages in 10pt, one-column format.

Epigenetic systems, either natural or artificial, share a prolonged developmental process through which varied and complex cognitive and perceptual structures emerge as a result of the interaction of an embodied system with a physical and social environment. Epigenetic robotics includes the two-fold goal of understanding biological systems by the interdisciplinary integration between social and engineering sciences and, simultaneously, that of enabling robots and artificial systems to develop skills for any particular environment instead of programming them for solving particular goals for the environment in which they happen to reside. Psychological theory and empirical evidence is being used to inform epigenetic robotic models, and these models should be used as theoretical tools to make experimental predictions in developmental psychology. This year we particularly encourage research resulting from actual interdisciplinary collaboration. Epigenetic Robotics themes include, but are not limited to: * The development of: emotion, imitation, synchrony processing, intersubjectivity, joint attention, intentionality, non-verbal and verbal communication, sensorimotor schemata, shared meaning and symbolic reference, social learning, social relationships, social cognition ("mind reading", "theory of mind"); * The scope and limits of maturation, the mechanisms of open-ended development; * The mechanisms of stage formation and stage transitions; * The epistemological foundations of using robots to study development; * The role of motivations, emotions, and value systems in development; * Interaction between innate structure, ongoing developing structure, and experience; * The interplay between embodiment, learning biases and environment; * The differences between learning and development; * Algorithms for self-supervision, autonomous exploration, representation making, and methods for evolving new representations during ontogeny; * Robots that can undergo morphological changes and how they can be used to study the interplay between cognitive and morphological development; Keynote speakers 2006 Karen Adolph (Psychology Dpt, New York University, USA) Andrew Barto (Computer Science Dpt, University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA) Philippe Rochat (Psychology Dpt, University of Emory, USA) Gregor Schoener (Institut f?r Neuroinformatik, Ruhr-Universit?t-Bochum, Germany) Bruno Wicker (Institut de Neurosciences Cognitives de la Mediterran?e, France) Important Dates April 3rd, 2006: Deadline for submission of papers and posters May 15th, 2006: Notification of acceptance for papers and posters July 17th, 2006: Deadline for camera ready-papers & posters September 20-22, 2006: Epirob 2006 Modes of submission (1) Regular Submission (8-page max).
