Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the inaugural workshop on “Evaluating Motion Planning Performance: Metrics, Tools,
Datasets, and Experimental Design” at IROS 2022.

This workshop will bring together robotics researchers and practitioners in academia and industry to establish the
state of the art in motion planner evaluation, discuss recent trends, and identify the outstanding problems in the field.

We invite you to participate and submit your contributions!

================

Overview

================

Website: https://motion-planning-workshop.kavrakilab.org
Submission website: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/EMPP2022

Contact: motionplanningworkshop@gmail.com

Location: Kyoto, Japan (hybrid format)

Submission deadline: 23:59 September 16, 2022 PDT

Contributions solicited: Extended abstracts (1-4 pages) describing novel research contributions, open-source tools,
and datasets for motion planning

================

Scope

================

Motion planning research has produced a plethora of techniques with distinct strengths and weaknesses, and
widespread applications in different areas of robotics, such as autonomous driving, mobile manipulation, and
locomotion. However, the field largely lacks standardized datasets and performance metrics for comparison. As a
result, researchers resort to developing their own ad-hoc experimental designs, which can be time-consuming, prone
to bias, and narrow in scope. This matter makes direct comparison of approaches against the state-of-the-art difficult.
Additionally, the integration of machine learning methods with motion planners has further increased the demand for
large common training datasets with a rich distribution of problems. This workshop is concerned with challenges in
providing reliable, consistent, and comparable performance evaluation of motion planning. 

================

Confirmed Speakers

================

Jonathan Gammell, Departmental Lecturer, Oxford Robotics Institute

Mark Moll, Director of Research, PickNik

Andreas Orthey, Staff Robotics Scientist, Realtime Robotics

Hanna Kurniawati, Associate Professor, Australian National University

Xuesu Xiao, Assistant Professor, George Mason University

================

Call for Contributions

================

We invite submissions of extended abstracts describing contributions in topics broadly related to evaluation and
benchmarking of motion planning across all areas of robotics (including manipulation, mobile robots, navigation, field
robotics, etc.). Such contributions may convey, e.g., novel motion planner evaluation and benchmarking
methodologies, case-study evaluations of new and existing planners, reproducibility studies, and short opinion papers.
Submission of reports on new datasets and open-source tools is also greatly encouraged. Dataset and tool
submissions should include a link to a well-documented, open-source repository.

Submitted abstracts should be 1–4 pages in length (including references and figures), in the IROS paper format
(available at https://iros2022.org/contributing/call-for-papers).?The extended abstracts may describe work currently
under review (or recently appearing) in other robotics publication venues, in compliance with the author restrictions

specified by such venues. Submissions will be judged on technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Authors of accepted submissions will be invited to present their work as a poster and in a “lightning talk” session
during the workshop. Accepted abstracts will be posted on the workshop website; relevant tools and resources will be
featured in a resource list on the workshop website and advertised to the community. The organizers intend to
facilitate virtual participation and presentation as needed in close coordination with the conference organizers.
