» IJCAI 2018Video Competition IJCAI 2018 . In the spirit of earlier AI Video Competitions, our intention is to provide researchers with a showcase for demonstrating how exciting and interesting Artificial Intelligence can be, as well as offering to the public and the media accurate information crafted first-hand by researchers. The results of the competitionwill be presented at the IJCAI 2018 conference (July 13-19, 2018, in Stockholm, Sweden), where the best videos will be announced. All videos will also be made available online. Read more.

» Tutorial at AAMAS 2018. Today when social networking services are ubiquitous, it is important to understand social influence in a system of agents and how it impacts the beliefs and actions of the agents in the system. We are giving a tutorial at AAMAS 2018 titled Multiagent Systems and social influence where we cover the formal models of social influence from social science that originated such explorations half a century ago. We also look at modern models from multi-agent systems based on epistemic logic. Read more.

» Tutorial at IJCAI 2018. Machine ethics is concerned with the challenge of constructing ethical and ethically behaving artificial agents and systems. We are giving a tutorial at IJCAI-ECAI 2018 titled Machines that know Right, and can not do Wrong - The theory and practice of machine ethics where we introduce the advances in the machine ethics field and outlines the main AI challenges in this discipline.
