Final CFP: Special Issue on “Theory of Mind in Humans and in Machines”

Together with Prof. Fabio Cuzzolin (Oxford Brookes University, UK), Prof. Barbara Jacquelyn Sahakian (University of Cambridge, UK) and Dr. Christelle Langley (University of Cambridge, UK), we are organizing a special issue (Frontiers Research Topic) on the emerging topic of “Theory of Mind in Humans and in Machines” under the “Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence” and “Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience” journals. We would like to invite you to contribute articles to the Research Topic. For more information on this special issue, please visit the website at https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/16802/theory-of-mind-in-humans-and-in-machines

Papers may be submitted until the 30th of July 2021 (manuscript submission extended deadline). Submitted papers should not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. We also encourage authors to send a short abstract (via the platform) to ensure compliance with the topic and scope of the Frontiers journals as early as possible.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, theoretical proposals, computational experiments, and case studies of:

• Computational Theory of Mind

• Learning from Demonstrations

• Cognitive Models for Learning from Demonstration and Planning

• Neuroscience-inspired models of Theory of Mind

• Human-Robot Interaction

• Cooperative Inverse Reinforcement Learning (assistance games)

• Learning from Preferences

If you intend to send an article to the special issue, please do let us know by hitting the “Participate” button in the web interface.

If you have any questions or need any kind of assistance from us, please do not hesitate to let us know.

On behalf of the topic editors,

MICCAI 2021 Sixth Educational Challenge — Deadline Extended August , 2

The MICCAI Educational Challenge will be held for the sixth time, leading up to and concluding at MICCAI 2021 in Strasbourg, France. The goal of the challenge is to encourage members of the MICCAI community to create and share educational materials, covering fundamental concepts in medical image computing and computer-assisted interventions. The first prize winner of the MICCAI Educational Challenge will receive a prize of $500, sponsored by the MICCAI society, and an interview with a well-known professor published on YouTube to promote their research. Pending sufficient submissions, a second and third place prize will also be awarded. The winner(s) will be decided by popular vote and announced at MICCAI 2021. Tutorials may be formatted as videos, papers, presentations, IPython Notebooks, GitHub sources and documentation, or blog posts.

For more details please visit our website: https://miccai-sb.github.io/challenge.html
