The IEEE International Conference on Development and Learning (ICDL), previously referred to as ICDL-EpiRob, is the premier gathering of professionals dedicated to the advancement of cognitive and developmental learning. As such, ICDL is a unique conference gathering researchers from computer science, robotics, psychology and developmental studies.

We invite submissions for the conference in 2021 to explore, extend, and consolidate the interdisciplinary boundaries of this exciting research field.

Due to the influence of COVID-19, IEEE ICDL 2021 will be held in a hybrid style. The details will be updated a while later.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  • Principles and Theories of Development and Learning
  • Development of Skills in Biological Systems and Robots
  • Nature vs. Nurture, Developmental Stages
  • Models on the Contributions of Interaction to Learning
  • Models on Active Learning
  • Architectures for Lifelong Learning
  • Emergence of Body and Affordance Perception
  • Analysis and Modelling of Human Motion and States
  • Models for Prediction, Planning and Problem Solving
  • Models of Human-Human and Human-Robot Interaction
