The Fifth International Symposium on Robotics Research

这笔拨款为15名美国科学家参加在日本东京举行的第五届国际机器人研究研讨会提供机票。ISSR是一个高质量的会议，在美国，日本和西欧之间轮流举行，是发起合作研究和交流访问的有效手段。为了扩大参与范围，今年开始征集论文。机票奖将颁发给缺乏旅费的顶级论文作者，以及国际机器人研究杂志编辑顾问委员会邀请的一至两名杰出与会者。研讨会将在单一轨道上进行，以促进跨学科交流，旅行补助金的接受者将为一份摘要报告和访问研究设施的说明作出贡献。

This grant provides airfare for fifteen U.S. scientists to attend the Fifth International Symposium on Robotics Research in Tokyo, Japan. ISSR is a high-quality conference that rotates between the U.S., Japan, and Western Europe, and is an effective means of initiating collaboratory research and exchange visits. The call for papers was open this year in order to broaden participation. Airfare awards will be distributed among authors of top-ranked papers who lack travel funds, plus one or two distinguished attendees invited by the Editorial Advisory Board of the International Journal of Robotics Research. The symposium will be conducted in a single track to facilitate cross-disciplinary interchange, and recipients of travel grants will contribute to a summary report and a description of visited research facilities.
