[Event at CIG] [CFP] Autonomous Robots and Multirobot Systems (ARMS) Workshop 2026 @ AAMAS

[Nicola Basilico]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the Autonomous Robots and Multirobot Systems (ARMS) Workshop 2026, to be held as a full-day in-person event on May 25, 2026 as part of the AAMAS 2026 conference.

OVERVIEW
The goal of this workshop is to offer a dedicated forum where agents and robotics researchers can interact, discuss promising research directions, and foster further collaborations. The event accompanies the *Robotics and Control* Area of Interest of the main conference. Contributions are sought in all areas of robotics, particularly those related to autonomous agents research, including both theoretical papers and empirical studies.

TOPICS OF INTEREST
Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
*   Knowledge representation, reasoning, and planning in single- and multi-robot settings.
*   Machine learning and imitation learning.
*   Human-robot interaction and teamwork.
*   Game-theoretic coordination and market-based methods.
*   Large-scale multi-robot systems and swarms.
*   Canonical robotics problems (e.g., robot soccer, coverage, foraging, or patrolling).

IMPORTANT DATES (Anywhere on Earth - AoE)
*   Paper Submission Deadline: February 4, 2026.
*   Notification of Acceptance: March 20, 2026.
*   Workshop Date: May 25, 2026.

SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
Papers must follow the AAMAS 2026 format and should not exceed 8 pages plus references. The review process is single-blind. Please note that ARMS is a non-archival workshop; papers will be made available to participants upon request, but presenting original work here usually does not preclude future publication.

Submission Link: https://openreview.net/group?id=ifaamas.org/AAMAS/2026/Workshop/ARMS.

FAST-TRACK REVIEW FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS
We offer a fast-track review process for robotics papers that were initially submitted as full papers to AAMAS but accepted as extended abstracts. Authors may submit their original full version to ARMS for the opportunity to give a full oral presentation at the workshop.
