goal of the workshop is to provide researchers with a venue to discuss
models or techniques for tackling a variety of multi-agent optimization
problems. We seek contributions in the general area of multi-agent
optimization, including distributed optimization, coalition formation,
optimization under uncertainty, winner determination algorithms in
auctions and procurements, and algorithms to compute Nash and other
equilibria in games. Of particular emphasis are contributions at the
intersection of optimization and learning. See below for a
(non-exhaustive) list of topics.</p><p>This workshop invites works from
different strands of the multi-agent systems community that pertain to
the design of algorithms, models, and techniques to deal with
multi-agent optimization and learning problems or problems that can be
effectively solved by adopting a multi-agent framework.</p><h3 style="margin-bottom:6px;margin-top:0px">Topics</h3>The workshop organizers invite paper submissions on the following (and related) topics:<ul style="padding-left:1.429em;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><li>Optimization for learning (strategic and non-strategic) agents</li><li>Learning for multi-agent optimization problems</li><li>Distributed constraint satisfaction and optimization</li><li>Winner determination algorithms in auctions and procurements</li><li>Coalition or group formation algorithms</li><li>Algorithms to compute Nash and other equilibria in games</li><li>Optimization under uncertainty</li><li>Optimization with incomplete or dynamic input data</li><li>Algorithms for real-time applications</li><li>Cloud, distributed and grid computing</li><li>Applications of learning and optimization in societally beneficial domains</li><li>Multi-agent planning</li><li>Multi-robot coordination</li></ul><p>The
workshop is of interest both to researchers investigating applications
of multi-agent systems to optimization problems in large, complex
domains, as well as to those examining optimization and learning
problems that arise in systems comprised of many autonomous agents. In
so doing, this workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers to
discuss common issues that arise in solving optimization and learning
problems in different areas, to introduce new application domains for
multi-agent optimization techniques, and to elaborate common benchmarks
to test solutions.</p><p>Finally, the workshop will welcome papers that
describe the release of benchmarks and data sets that can be used by the
community to solve fundamental problems of interest, including in
machine learning and optimization for health systems and urban networks,
to mention but a few examples.</p><div style="margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px"><h3 style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);margin-bottom:6px;margin-top:0px">Visit the website:</h3><span><a style="color:blue" href="https://optlearnmas23.github.io/" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://optlearnmas23.github.io/</a></span></div></section><section style="font-family:Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:16px"><header><h2></h2><h3 style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);margin-bottom:6px;margin-top:0px"><br></h3><h3 style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);margin-bottom:6px;margin-top:0px">Important Dates</h3></header><ul style="padding-left:1.429em;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><li><strong>March 3, 2023 (23:59 UTC-12)</strong><span> </span>– Submission Deadline</li><li><strong>March 27, 2023 (23:59 UTC-12)</strong><span> </span>– Acceptance notification</li><li><strong>April 26, 2023 (23:59 UTC-12)</strong><span> </span>– IJCAI Fast Track Submission Deadline</li><li><strong>May 3, 2023 (23:59 UTC-12)</strong><span> </span>– IJCAI Fast Track Acceptance Notification</li><li><strong>May 29 or May 30, 2023</strong><span> </span>– Workshop Date</li></ul></section><br>Cheers,</div><span>The OptLearnMAS Organizing Committee</span><br></div><div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div>
