== General Information ==
The 11th International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR 2019) brings together researchers and practitioners working on the interaction between humans and intelligent robots and on the integration of robots into the fabric of our society. ICSR 2019 will take place in Madrid, November 26-29, 2019.

It is organized by the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid - Systems Engineering and Automation Department. Accepted papers will be included in the ICSR 2019 proceedings published by Springer LNAI series.

The conference welcomes original contributions describing technically rigorous scientific and philosophical advances in the area of social robotics and artificial intelligence: innovative ideas and concepts, new discoveries and improvements, novel applications on the latest fundamental advances in the core technologies that form the backbone of social robotics, distinguished developmental projects, as well as seminal works in aesthetic design, ethics and philosophy, studies on social impact and influence pertaining to social robotics, and its interaction and communication with human beings.

== Topics ==
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

- Affective and cognitive sciences for socially interactive robots
- Context awareness, expectation, and intention understanding
- Control architectures for social robotics
- Human augmentation, rehabilitation, and medical robots
- Interaction and collaboration among robots, humans, and environments
- Personal robots for the home
- Robot applications in education, entertainment, and gaming
- Robot ethics in human society
- Robots that can adapt to different users
- Robots to assist the elderly and persons with disabilities
- Robots with personality
- Safety in robots working in human spaces
- Socially assistive robots to improve the quality of life
- Social acceptance and impact in the society
- Socially appealing design methodologies


== SUBMISSION OF PAPERS ==
Submissions must be made in PDF format and follow the Springer LNCS LNAI style for the layout. All papers will be refereed by the program committee. Full papers are limited to ten pages. Detailed instructions for paper submission are available on the conference website. LNCS style templates are available on the Springer LNCS website. Authors are invited to submit their papers via the OCS submission system: https://ocs.springer.com/ocs/home/ICSR2019.

At least one of the authors will be required to register and attend the conference in order to include the paper in the proceedings.

 
== WORKSHOPS AND SPECIAL SESSIONS ==
Participants are invited to hold half-day workshops and/or special sessions on topics relevant to social robotics. Proposals on workshops and special sessions will be considered by the organizing committee.
 
== COMPETITION ==
Social robot designs from practitioners from any discipline, and in any format, and designs, prototypes, performances, or demos selected by the organizing committee will be invited for exhibition during the conference.
 
== EXHIBITIONS ==
Participants who would like to exhibit their relevant products during the conference should submit a summary describing the demonstration. Exhibition space will be allocated to those approved by the ICSR 2019 organizing committee.
