Call for Papers Uncertain Reasoning Conference-Artificial Intelligence

Call for Papers Uncertain Reasoning Conference-Artificial Intelligence

Submission Deadline: November 18^th, 2013

Many problems in AI (in reasoning, planning, learning, perception and robotics) require the agent to operate with incomplete or uncertain information. The objective of this track is to present and discuss a broad and diverse range of current work on uncertain reasoning, including theoretical and applied research based on different paradigms. We hope that the variety and richness of this track will help to promote cross fertilization among the different approaches for uncertain reasoning, and in this way foster the development of new ideas and paradigms.

The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2014 Special Track at the 27th International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-27) is the 19th in the series. As the past tracks, UR'2014 seeks to bring together researchers working on broad issues related to reasoning under uncertainty.
Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Papers of particular interest include, but are not limited to: 

- Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies
- Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief function, vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and probability logics
- Modeling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate information, such as: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets of measures, and interval-valued probabilities
- Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning
- Bayesian networks
- Graphical models of uncertainty
- Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
- Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
- Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
- Nonmonotonic reasoning
- Conditional Logics
- Argumentation
- Belief change and Merging
- Similarity-based reasoning
- Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and knowledge discovery
- Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion, diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment
- Practical applications of uncertain reasoning

All accepted papers will be published as FLAIRS proceedings by AAAI Press. We anticipate that, as in previous years, the International Journal of Approximate Reasoning (IJAR) will publish a special issue devoted to extended versions of the top papers at the track.

The proceedings of FLAIRS-27 will be published by the AAAI. Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign a form transferring copyright of their contribution to AAAI.

At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register, attend, and present the paper at FLAIRS-27.
