Announcement
Call for papers
Within the fields of Human-Computer Interaction and Human-Robot
Interaction, the past few years have witnessed a strong upsurge of
interest in the more personal aspects of human relationships with
these artificial partners. Nowhere has this strength of interest been
more apparent than at Maastricht University, where the defence of a
recent PhD thesis, "Intimate Relationships with Artificial Partners",
attracted wide media publicity on an unprecedented scale; therefore,
Maastricht University is organizing and hosting the 1st International

Conference sessions are planned on the following topics:
* Robot Emotions

* Philosophical Approaches
We welcome contributions in the form of an extended abstract and/or
