This AROB 18th '13 (Jan.30(Wed.)-Feb.1(Fri.), 2013. Daejeon Convention Center, Daejeon, JAPAN) symposium invites you all to present original research and to discuss development of new technologies concerning artificial life and robotics based on computer simulations and hardware designs of state-of-the-art technologies.
We wish to thank the followings for their contributions to the success of a series of conferences:
This symposium was founded in 1996 under the support of Science and International Affairs Bureau, Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japanese Government. Since then, this symposium has been held every year at B-Con Plaza, Beppu, Japan except AROB 5th '00 (Oita) and AROB 6th '01 (Tokyo). The Eleventh to Seventeenth symposiums (2006-2012) were held at B-Con Plaza, Beppu, Japan.
The objective of this symposium is to develop new technologies for artificial life and robotics and their applications in various fields listed in the following Topics. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original research and to discuss development of new technologies concerning artificial life and robotics based on computer simulations and hardware designs of state-of-the-art technologies.
