Chairs’ Welcome
The Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS) conference series gathers researchers from
around the world to share the latest advances in the field. It is the premier forum for research in the theory
and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent systems. AAMAS 2002, the first of the series, was held in
Bologna, followed by Melbourne (2003), New York (2004), Utrecht (2005), Hakodate (2006), Honolulu (2007),
Estoril (2008), Budapest (2009), Toronto (2010), Taipei (2011), Valencia (2012), Saint Paul (2013), Paris (2014),
Istanbul (2015), Singapore (2016), and São Paulo (2017). This volume is the proceedings of AAMAS 2018, the
th
17 conference in the series, held in Stockholm in July 2018. AAMAS 2018 was part of the inaugural
Federated AI Meeting (FAIM), with the other conferences being IJCAI, ICML, ICCBR and SoCS.
AAMAS 2018 invited submissions for a general track and five special tracks: Robotics, Socially Interactive
Agents, Blue Sky Ideas, and Industrial Applications, along with a track to present papers from JAAMAS (the
journal Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems) that had not previously been presented at a major
conference. The special tracks were chaired by leading researchers in their fields: Sonia Chernova and
Maria Gini chaired the Robotics track, Angelo Cafaro and Stacy Marsella the Socially Interactive Agents
track, Michael Rovatsos and Carles Sierra the Blue Sky Ideas track, and Nils Bulling and Ann Nowé the
Industrial Applications track. Natasha Alechina solicited papers for the JAAMAS Presentation Track from
the papers that appeared in JAAMAS within the preceding 12 months.
This year, a group of Area Chairs (AC) was selected to help oversee the review process of the main track.
Jointly with the program chairs, the special track chairs and area chairs were responsible for appointing
Senior Program Committee (SPC) members, who in turn helped identify a strong and diverse set of Program
Committee (PC) members for their tracks. Every paper was reviewed by at least three PC members,
overseen by an SPC member who ensured reviews were clear and informative. After authors were given an
opportunity to respond to the reviewers, the SPC member led a discussion where the reviewers considered
each others’, and the authors’, comments. The track chairs and area chairs in turn worked with the
program chairs to make final decisions about acceptance for the papers, to ensure uniformly high quality.
AAMAS 2018 attracted a good number of high-quality submissions: the overall acceptance rate for full
papers was 25.5% (190 out of 743 submissions were accepted). A breakdown of the acceptances by track is
as follows:
Track Reviewed Full Paper Extended Abstract
Main 607 149 25% 111 18%
Robotics 68 18 26% 15 22%
Socially Interactive Agents 53 16 30% 17 32%
Blue Sky Ideas 15 6 40% - -
The top 20% of accepted papers from the Main, Robotics, Socially Interactive Agents, and Blue Sky Idea
tracks were nominated for a fast track review process at JAAMAS for authors interested in submitting a
longer journal article describing their work.
The Industrial Applications track reviewed submissions based on industrial deployment and relevance. The
track’s review process included supplemental materials such as presentations and videos, in addition to the
paper content. The track chairs accepted 3 full papers, 1 extended abstract, and 3 presentations. The five
JAAMAS extended abstracts were reviewed by the track chair.
While all of the accepted papers are of very high quality, a selected few were nominated for the Best Paper
Award and the Pragnesh Jay Modi Best Student Paper Award from the main track papers. The Best Paper
Award was presented at the conference to the best paper, and the Pragnesh Jay Modi Best Student Paper
Award was given to the best of the remaining papers primarily authored by a student. The Best Student
Paper Award was sponsored by Springer. The nominees for these awards are listed below, alphabetically by
the first author’s last name; papers primarily authored by a student are marked with an asterisk (*). These
papers were also nominated for fast track review at the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research (JAIR).

Papers were presented orally in 20 minute slots; all extended abstracts and, optionally, full papers were
presented as posters during the conference. These proceedings also contain the extended abstracts of 18
Demonstrations, and 27 submissions accepted to the Doctoral Consortium, as well as abstracts of the invited
talks and details of some of the awards presented.
The keynote speakers for AAMAS were Thomas A. Henzinger (IST Austria) and Ana Maria Paiva (U.
Lisbon). The joint FAIM session keynote speakers were Josh Tenenbaum (MIT) and Joyce Yue Chai
(Michigan State University). The ACM SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award talk was delivered by
Craig Boutilier (Google), and Ariel Rosenfeld (Ph.D .at Bar-Ilan University 2017) gave the Victor Lesser
Dissertation Award presentation.
We would like to thank the authors for submitting a large number of top quality papers and the track
chairs, area chairs, SPC members, PC members, and a host of additional reviewers for their dedication in
evaluating the submissions and for engaging in all the technical discussions held during the reviewing
process. We also thank Neil Yorke-Smith for arranging these conference proceedings, Thomas Preuss for
providing Confmaster technical support, Blai Bonet and Carles Sierra for assisting with the paper matching
process, as well as Franziska Klügl and all the local arrangements assistants for organizing the venue and
the social program.
Finally, we also would like to thank the whole AAMAS 2018 organization team for their work in making
AAMAS 2018 a rich and exciting event; in addition to the main conference, demonstrations, and Doctoral
Consortium program captured in these proceedings, there was also a tutorial program and a large joint
workshop program shared across the FAIM conferences. The necessary coordination across all FAIM
conferences resulted in a much higher workload for many members of the organizing team than usual. We
would therefore like to extend a special thanks to all of them, especially Franziska Klügl, for their tireless
efforts in making AAMAS 2018 and FAIM 2018 a success!

Awards
ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award
The ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award is an annual award for excellence in research in the
area of autonomous agents. The award is intended to recognize researchers in autonomous agents whose
current work is an important influence on the field. The award is an official ACM award, funded by an
endowment created by ACM SIGAI from the proceeds of previous Autonomous Agents conferences. Prior to
2014, it was known as the ACM/SIGART Autonomous Agents Award.
Candidates for the award are nominated through an open nomination process. Previous winners of the award
were David Parkes (2017), Peter Stone (2016), Catherine Pelachaud (2015), Michael Wellman (2014), Jeffrey S.
Rosenschein (2013), Moshe Tennenholtz (2012), Joe Halpern (2011), Jonathan Gratch and Stacy Marsella (2010),
Manuela Veloso (2009), Yoav Shoham (2008), Sarit Kraus (2007), Michael Wooldridge (2006), Milind Tambe
(2005), Makoto Yokoo (2004), Nick Jennings (2003), Katia Sycara (2002), and Tuomas Sandholm (2001).
The selection committee for the ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award is pleased to announce that
Dr. Craig Boutilier, Principal Research Scientist at Google, is the recipient of the 2018 award. Over the years,
Dr. Boutilier has made seminal contributions to research on decision-making under uncertainty, game theory,
and computational social choice. He is a pioneer in applying decision-theoretic concepts in novel ways in a
variety of domains including (single- and multi-agent) planning and reinforcement learning, preference
elicitation, voting, matching, facility location, and recommender systems. His recent research continues to
significantly influence the field of computational social choice through the novel computational and
methodological tools he introduced and his focus on modeling realistic preferences. In addition to his
reputation for outstanding research, Dr. Boutilier is also recognized as an exceptional teacher and mentor.
IFAAMAS Victor Lesser Distinguished Dissertation Award

This award was started for dissertations defended in 2006 and is named for Professor Victor Lesser, a long
standing member of the AAMAS community who has graduated a large number of outstanding PhD students
in the area. To be eligible for the 2017 award, presented at AAMAS 2018, a dissertation had to have been
written as part of a PhD defended during the year 2017, and had to be nominated by the supervisor with three
supporting references.
Selection is based on originality, depth, impact and written quality, supported by quality publications. Previous
winners of this award were Nisarg Shah (2016), Amos Azaria (2015), Yair Zick (2014), Manish Jain (2013), Birgit
Endrass (2012), Daniel Villatoro (2011), Bo An (2010), Andrew Gilpin (2009), Ariel Procaccia (2008), Radu Jurca
(2007), and Vincent Conitzer (2006).
The 2017 IFAAMAS Victor Lesser Distinguished Dissertation Award recipient is Dr. Ariel Rosenfeld, whose
thesis entitled ‘Automated Agents for Advice Provision’ was supervised by Prof. Sarit Kraus.
IFAAMAS Influential Paper Award

The International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems set up an influential paper
award in 2006 to recognize publications that have made seminal contributions to the field. Such papers
represent the best and most influential work in the area of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. These
papers might, therefore, have proved a key result, led to the development of a new sub-field, demonstrated a
significant new application or system, or simply presented a new way of thinking about a topic that has proved
influential. The award is open to any paper that was published at least 10 years before the award is made. The
paper can have been published in any journal, conference, or workshop. The award is sponsored by the Agent
Theories, Architectures and Languages foundation.
