Organization of ALTRUIST 2023

The workshop aims at collecting contributions from experts (scholars, researchers, Ph.D. students, and practitioners) in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics and other crossing disciplines involved in developing innovative and effective research and technologies for the ageing society and assistance in general. The workshop will pursue a multi-disciplinary approach by collecting knowledge and experiences from heterogeneous disciplines and also experiences from stakeholders in order to show how efforts from technological and non-technological actors would add value to the promotion of innovative assistive systems.
