Workshop on Humanoids 2025
At the Crossroads of Control:
Model-based VS Learning based Control for Humanoids
Thursday, October 2, 2025, Seoul, Korea
We are seeking contributions of late breaking results and posters that address the physical design of reliable humanoid robots. If you think your results fit with one of the topics below, please submit your contribution here by September 14, 2025 September, 19, Friday, 2025 (EST) : Deadline has been extended, for potential inclusion at our workshop
