IEEE ICDL (the Joint IEEE International Conference on Development and Learning—formerly named ICDL-EpiRob) is a unique conference gathering researchers from computer science, robotics, psychology, and developmental studies to share knowledge and research on how humans and animals develop sensing, reasoning, and actions. This includes taking advantage of interaction with social and physical environments and how cognitive and developmental capabilities can be transferred to computing systems and robotics. This approach goes hand in hand with the goals of both understanding human and animal development and applying this knowledge to improve future intelligent technology, including robots that will be in close interaction with humans.
