NARS Tutorial
And
Workshop

August 19 2022, Seattle, WA, USA

At AGI 2022

With notable progress in recent years, the AGI-oriented NARS (Non-Axiomatic Reasoning System) has been attracting increasing interest from researchers and students from around the world. Built on top of its open-source implementation (OpenNARS), several NARS-based and NARS-related projects have been undertaken and are currently under development. To encourage communication and collaboration among the researchers, as well as to introduce these projects to the AGI community, NARS Workshop will be held during AGI-22 as an integrated part within the conference.

The workshop will be one-day event, on-site and virtual (Aug 19). It will start with guest speaker's presentations about projects related to NARS and a tutorial that introduces the conceptual design and current implementations of NARS. The workshop will conclude with a General Discussion focusing on future research. NARS workshop is open to all AGI-22 attendees. Additional demonstrations and tutorials may be arranged on a case-by-case manner for those wishing to learn more about NARS project.
