Conference Website: http://www.agi-
* Mission *
The AGI conference series (http://www.agi-conf.org/) is the premier international forum for cutting-edge research focusing on the original goal of the AI field — the creation of thinking machines with general intelligence at the human level and ultimately beyond. The AGI conference series is held in cooperation with AAAI, and AGI-13 will co-locate with IJCAI-13.
* Topics *
As in prior AGI conferences, we welcome papers on all aspects of AGI R&D, with the key proviso that each paper should in some way contribute specifically to the development of Artificial General Intelligence.
* Special Session on Cognitive Robotics and AGI *
This Special Session will feature papers giving new AGI ideas inspired by current research in Cognitive Robotics.
* Workshops *
AGI-13 will include the following workshops:
1. Formalizing Mechanisms for Artificial General Intelligence and Cognition (Formal MAGIC)
2. Probability Theory or Not? Practical and Theoretical Concerns on Uncertainty Handling in AGI
See http://www.agi-conference.
* Tutorials / Demonstrations *
Tutorials and demonstrations will be held alongside the conference. For the requirements for proposals, please see the AGI-13 website.

Keynote speeches will be delivered by leading scientists in the area of AGI and adjacent disciplines; they will be announced at a later stage at the website of AGI-13.
