15th International Conference on Social Robotics

Under the Patronage of the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs,
H.E. Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani

Human-Robot Collaboration: Sea, Air, Land, Space and Cyberspace

The 15th International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR 2023) will bring together researchers and practitioners working on the interaction between humans and intelligent robots and on the integration of social robots into our society.  ICSR 2023 will take place in Doha as a face-to-face conference on December 3-7, 2023. This will be the first time that the conference will be hosted in Qatar and in the Middle East and North Africa region. The theme of this year’s conference is “Human-Robot Collaboration: Sea, Air, Land, Space and Cyberspace”. The theme emphasizes on all physical and cyber-physical domains where humans and robots collaborate.

The ICSR2022 organizing committee has decided to hold the ICSR as a traditional in-person conference . Virtual attendance may also be an option for the general audience, who have Covid-travel restrictions by their organization or do not feel comfortable participating in large gatherings. However, it is strong encouraged for presenters, invited speakers, and workshop organizers to be present in person .For any exceptional cases, please, write an email to icsr23@qu.edu.qa. All accepted papers must be supported by a full Conference Registration (“in person”) paid by the corresponding author. Each full Conference Registration will support up to one paper. If authors have another paper (max 2 papers), they must pay an extra fee as detailed in the “Registration Page”.

The conference welcomes original contributions describing technically rigorous scientific and research advances in the area of social robotics and AI: innovative ideas and concepts, new discoveries and improvements, novel applications on the latest fundamental advances in the core technologies that form the backbone of social robotics as well as distinguished studies and projects pertaining the social robotics and its interaction and impact in our society. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Affective and cognitive sciences for socially interactive robots
