                           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.
