Scope and Background
Intelligent agents in AI are software entities designed to act on behalf of humans with varying degrees of autonomy. These agents interact with their environment by sensing its status and employing their knowledge to carry out operations that help them achieve their goals. They possess distinctive properties such as adaptability, reactivity, proactivity, and sociability. Intelligent agents can collaborate or compete with each other, aiming to achieve personal or shared objectives. The applications of these agents vary widely in scale, ranging from personal assistants and conversational systems to large-scale, intricate, and mission-critical systems such as autonomous vehicles or search and rescue drones. Research on intelligent agents focuses on inventing innovative agent models, frameworks, and techniques to enhance their capabilities.
The IEEE International Conference on Agents serves as a gathering point for scholars and professionals in all areas of agent research. IEEE ICA provides a platform to explore new theories, practices, and applications of intelligent and autonomous agents. Past IEEE ICA conferences have been held in Kyoto (2021, 2023), Adelaide (2022), Jinan (2019), Singapore (2018), Beijing (2017), and Matsue (2016). The 8th IEEE International Conference on Agents will take place in Wollongong, Australia, and it will be run in a hybrid way (remote participation is allowed).
The Program Committee invites theoretical and technical papers on significant, original, and unpublished research in all areas of agent research.
