The Turing Institute, as part of their AI Programme, will host a UK Multi-Agent Systems Symposium (UK-MAS) which will take place on 24 Feb 2020, 10.00-17.00 (lunch provided), at the Turing HQ in London.

https://www.turing.ac.uk/events/uk-multi-agent-systems-symposium</a> <b>Please note the deadline for applications is 31 January.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The goal of the symposium is to bring together UK-based research labs at universities and industry who have a focus on MAS research, to explore the MAS research landscape in the UK. We define MAS in a broad sense, including multi-agent
interaction/learning/planning, negotiation, game theory, mechanism design, opponent modelling, game playing, swarm robotics, HRI/HCI, autonomous driving, social networks, verification, etc.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There will be space for talks by people from academia and industry as well as discussion sessions and networking opportunities.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">It is planned to record talks and upload to YouTube (subject to data regulations and speaker consent). One concrete outcome will be the creation of a virtual map with the locations and research foci of the various
UK-based labs, as well as a shared mailing list to disseminate relevant opportunities, with the hope that these will facilitate future collaborations.<o:p></o:p></p>
