June 23 22-26, 2020: St. Petersburg, Russia Virtual Due to Covid-19

The THIRTEENTH annual conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI−20) will take place in St. Petersburg, Russia, June 23-26, 2020 Online, June 22-26

The AGI conference series is the premier international event aimed at advancing the state of knowledge regarding the original goal of the AI field — the creation of thinking machines with general intelligence at the human level and possibly beyond. 

Information on the previous AGI conferences may be found here.

EasyChair is now accepting submissions for AGI-20!

Keynote speakers: TBD

Papers:
As in prior AGI conferences, we welcome contributed papers on all aspects of AGI R&D, with the key proviso that each paper should somehow contribute specifically to the development of Artificial General Intelligence.

The proceedings of AGI-20 will be published as a book in Springer’s Lecture Notes in AI series, and all the accepted papers will be available online. Papers must be written in either LaTeX (preferred) or Word. Author guidelines and templates can be downloaded here and additional information about Springer’s Lecture Notes in AI and CS series is here. Two types of papers will be accepted:

  • Regular papers, with a length limit of 10 pages, presenting new research results or rigorously describing new research ideas
  • Short technical communications, with a limit of 4 pages, summarizing results and ideas of interest to the AGI audience, including reports about recent publications, position papers, and preliminary results.

Appropriate topics for contributed papers include, but are not restricted to:

  • Agent Architectures
  • Autonomy
  • Benchmarks and Evaluation
  • Cognitive Modeling
  • Collaborative Intelligence
  • Creativity
  • Distributed AI
  • Formal Models of General Intelligence
  • Implications of AGI for Society, Economy and Ecology
  • Integration of Different Capabilities
  • Knowledge Representation for General Intelligence
  • Languages, Specification Approaches and Toolkits
  • Learning, and Learning Theory
  • Motivation, Emotion and Affect
  • Multi-Agent Interaction
  • Natural Language Understanding
  • Neural-Symbolic Processing
  • Perception and Perceptual Modeling
  • Philosophy of AGI
  • Reasoning, Inference and Planning
  • Reinforcement Learning
  • Robotic and Virtual Embodiment
  • Simulation and Emergent Behavior
  • Solomonoff Induction

Workshops, Tutorials and Demos:
AGI-20 will include a number of exciting workshops, tutorials and software/hardware demos. To submit proposals for workshops, tutorials or demos include the following information in an email:

  • Presenter(s). Each presenter must be registered in the conference.
  • Affiliation.
  • Demo title.
  • Demo description. What would you like to show? Keep this to a few sentences with as much detail as possible.
  • Demo images. 1-3 photographs (if hardware) or screenshots (if software).
  • AGI relevance. How does your work related to the over arching goal of human level artificial intelligence? As a rule of thumb, the more relevant your work, the shorter this answer needs to be.
  • Resources. Anything you’ll need, other than a table and 220V AC power.
