SeLIE’21 – The first International Workshop on

Self-Learning in Intelligent Environments
(SeLIE’21)

24 June 2021, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Aims and Scope

Aims and scope

Self-learning systems are artificial agents able to acquire and renew knowledge over the time by themselves, without any hard coding. These are adaptive systems whose functions improve by a learning process based -typically- on the method of trial and error. A self-learning system interacts with its users or surrounding environment initially by attempts and observes the changes produced by its actions.
This workshop will focus on the design, implementation and exploitation of self-learning features either within an Intelligent Environment as a whole, or within some of its components. The workshop will represent an opportunity for both the academia and industry to debate the state-of-the-art, challenges and open issues.

  • Self-Learning methods:
    • Reinforcement Learning and Inverse Reinforcement Learning
    • Imitation Learning
