*****************************************************************************************
The capability of reasoning with uncertain and/or incomplete information is a crucial
feature both of human and machine intelligence. The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning
at the Nineteenth International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Symposium (FLAIRS)
Conference seeks to bring together researchers working on broad issues related to
reasoning under uncertainty. This track was started in 1996 and has become an annual
event at FLAIRS. In 2003 the track was merged with the Special Track on Imprecise and
Indeterminate Probabilities.
Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning and imprecise probabilities are solicited.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies
* Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief functions,
argumentation, rough sets, and probability logics
* Modelling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate information,
* using for instance: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets of measures,
and interval-valued probabilities
* Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning
* Nonmonotonic reasoning and belief revision
* Uncertain reasoning and databases, uncertain reasoning in Web Intelligence
* Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
* Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
* Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
* Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and knowledge discovery
* Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion, diagnosis,
prediction, and situation assessment
* Practical applications of uncertain reasoning
Paper Submission and Publication
