HRI Workshop on Human – Large Language Model Interaction

January 18th, 2024 Daniela Lopez de Luise

Call for Submissions to the “Human – Large Language Model Interaction: The dawn of a new era or the end of it all?” Workshop at HRI 2024 


The Human – Large Language Model Interaction workshop aims at bringing together researchers and industry experts across all disciplines in the fields of Human-Robot Interaction and Artificial Intelligence for an interactive and interdisciplinary discussion around the enormous opportunities and challenges that emerge from integrating Large Language Models (including multimodal Vision-and-Language models) in the interactive, conversational and reasoning abilities of robots.   

The workshop aims to provide an important venue to encourage debate around issues concerning the deployment of Large Language Model / Large Multimodal Model empowered solutions for human-robot interaction. This will be an opportunity to share and discuss ideas, methods, worries, strategies, insights, and findings around the application of LLMs in interaction scenarios.   

 

Date: March 11, 2024 (Half-day workshop) 

Location: Boulder, Colorado (USA) during the 19th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI 2024)

TOPICS OF INTEREST 

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 

  • Applications of LLMs in HRI 

  • Multimodal social interaction research with LLMs 

  • Planning and decision making with LLMs for HRI 

  • Reasoning and knowledge representation using LLMs 

  • Situated interactions and grounding using LLMs 

  • Multiparty interactions using LLMs 

  • Explainability of LLM-powered interactive robots 

  • Reliability and Safety of LLM-powered interactive robots 

  • Trustworthiness of LLM-powered interactive robots 

 

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES 

Participants are invited to submit 2-pages extended abstracts on research related to the topics described above using EasyChair. We explicitly encourage the submission of position papers to discuss with the community or papers describing work in progress, novel ideas or new approaches related to the use of LLMs in HRI.   

All manuscripts must be submitted in PDF format and will be peer-reviewed based on relevance to the workshop. Authors are asked to adhere to the submission guidelines outlined by HRI2024. Submissions should be made using the ACM template; Overleaf provides an appropriate template that may be used. 

The authors of the accepted papers will present their work in the format of lightning talks or posters during the workshop. The accepted papers will be published on the workshop website.
