About
SAB 2026 investigates the mechanisms that let natural and artificial agents adapt and survive in uncertain environments. Researchers compare biological behavior with robot experiments, computer simulations and mathematical models to evaluate principles and architectures of adaptive behavior. The programme covers collective intelligence, learning and skill acquisition, artificial perception and manipulation, and physical and social constraints on behavior. A cross-kingdom intelligence symposium includes Paco Calvo, Jens Krause, Vera Meyer and Ute Schmid.
The meeting runs 19–22 October 2026 in Berlin, on CEST (Europe/Berlin, UTC+2). Workshops on 19 October at TU Berlin, Marchstraße 23, start at 09:00 following registration at 08:15; afternoon workshops end at 18:30.
