The goal of the Italian workshop series on Artificial Intelligence and RObotics
(AIRO) is to present, discuss and assess recent advances in the deployment of
Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods in Robotics. AI principles and methods play
a crucial role in several areas of the robotics research (e.g. field, service, social
robotics, etc.) and are pervasively exploited at various levels of robot archi-
tectures for different purposes: sensing and perception, reasoning and decision,
learning, intelligent control, adaptive and social behavior, verification and valida-
tion methods, etc. Starting from these diverse -yet intertwined- research fields,
the AIRO workshop series aim at providing an established long-term Italian
forum where the AI community and the Robotics community may find an inter-
esting and stimulating common ground. This volume contains the proceedings
of the third edition of the AIRO workshop1 , which was held in Trento, Italy, on
November 22-23 2018. This edition of the AIRO workshop accepted 12 papers
involving 42 authors. The program was structured into three sections Perception,
Learning and Action, Interacting with Humans, and Socially Assistive Robots.
The contributions covered several aspects of AI and Robotics in the areas of In-
dustrial, Assistive and Field robotics robot and mainly concerned with the fol-
lowing research topics: robot architectures, multi-agent systems, human-robot
interaction, robot learing, knowledge representation, planning and scheduling,
cognitive modeling, and user studies.
    The program of the workshop included also a Panel Session on AI for Robotics:
issues and challenges with speakers: Francesco Amigoni (Associate Professor at
Politecnico di Milano), Amedeo Cesta (Director of Research at CNR-ISTC), Ma-
lik Ghallab (Emeritus Director of Research at LAAS CNRS), Luca Iocchi (Asso-
ciate Professor at Sapienza, Università di Roma) and the keynote talk by Prof.
Giulio Sandini, Director of Research at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT)
and full professor of bioengineering at the University of Genoa, titled Humane
Robots - from Robots with a Humanoid Body to Robots with an Anthropomorphic
Mind.
    The research topics and the results collected in these proceedings illustrate
the work of an active and multidisciplinary research community and confirm
the growing interest for a forum where AI and Robotics researchers can find a
common ground.
