Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) http://www.cis.uoguelph.ca/~ur08/ FLAIRS-21 Coconut Grove, Florida, USA May 15-17, 2008 Final Call For Papers ======================================================================== The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2008 Special Track at the 21st International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-21) is the 13th in the series. As the past tracks, UR'2008 seeks to bring together researchers working on broad issues related to reasoning under uncertainty. Scopes ------ 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, argumentation, rough set, and probability logics *Modelling 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 *Graphical models of uncertainty *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, situation assessment *Practical applications of uncertain reasoning Paper Submission and Publication --------------------------------- Submitted papers must be original, and not submitted concurrently to a journal or another conference. Full papers may be up to 6 pages, and poster papers up to 2 pages. Papers must be in AAAI format, and submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system. Instructions on the submission procedure will be available at the UR'2008 website: http://www.cis.uoguelph.ca/~ur08/ Please note: For FLAIRS 2008, submissions will be reviewed double-blindly. Author names and affiliations should either be left empty or filled with placeholders such as xxxxxxxxxx. The proceedings of FLAIRS will be published by the AAAI. An author of each accepted paper is required to register, attend, and present the paper at the UR track. A special issue of Journal of Automated Reasoning will be devoted to extended and revised papers selected from the UR track.
