I believe that the following workshop may be of interest to the readers
of this list. It is co-located with UAI'99, just the following day. If
you want to participate, please send me a note BY MAY 24th.

Reasoning with Uncertainty in Robot Navigation
An IJCAI'99 Workshop
Stokholm, Sweden, August 2 1999
--------------------------------------------------
The Workshop on Reasoning with Uncertainty in Robot Navigation will be
held as part of the Int. Joint Conference on Artificial Ingelligence.
The workshop is devoted to discuss current topics in mobile robotics
and uncertainty. It will bring together researchers working in
advanced methods for dealing with sensor and movement uncertainty in
mobile robots. We especially welcome those who have ideas about how to
extend current theories to deal with more challenging environments, or
those who have competing approaches, e.g., landmark-based, behavioral,
or "topological" navigation. The workshop will provide an opportunity
to critically examine these various approaches, and to discuss their
strengths and weaknesses in various types of environments.
The workshop will interest all people working in mobile robotics, both
from academy and industry. It will also interest researchers working
in the area of uncertainty in AI, since it will offer them the
possibility to apply their techniques to real and challenging problems.
Full information including a preliminary program can be find at the
workshop website:

People interested in attending the workshop must send a statement of
interest BY MAY 24 to alessandro.saffiotti@ton.oru.se.
