----------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Fuzzy preference modeling and preferences in AI: two sides of a same coin Special Session to be held as part of IPMU-2010, 13-th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INFORMATION PROCESSING AND MANAGEMENT OF UNCERTAINTY IN KNOWLEDGE BASED SYSTEMS June 28-July 2, 2010 (Dortmund, Germany) ----------------------------------------------------------- Representing and reasoning about preferences are important skills in many real-life applications. Preferences are a multi-disciplinary topic of interest to economists, operations researchers, philosophers, psychologists, etc. Different research communities have extensively developed preference theories, most notably AI community and fuzzy community, which often show similarities but also complementarities. This session aims at providing an opportunity to bring together works from both communities. Contributions are expected from both theoretical and application perspectives in fuzzy preference modeling, reasoning with/about preferences, etc. Topics of interest include: - (fuzzy) preference modeling - preference elicitation and representation - handling preferences in multi-agent systems and group decision making, - preference aggregation and revision - utility and decision under uncertainty models - multicriteria decision making - fuzzy logic based decision making techniques - Bayesian and other decision making techniques - database queries - multiobjective search/optimization - etc
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Please follow the same instructions as for the main conference (see http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~ipmu2010/instructions.html). Special session papers will be handled in the same way as regular papers. In particular, they will be peer-reviewed by the conference program committee on the basis of the same criteria. When submitting the paper through the conference management system, authors are asked to indicate that they submit to the special session "Fuzzy preference modeling and preferences in AI: two sides of a same coin". ----------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Jan 17, 2010: Deadline for paper submission Mar 07, 2010: Notification of acceptance Apr 4, 2010: Final camera ready copies due ----------------------------------------------------------- SESSION ORGANIZERS Lluis GODO Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (IIIA) Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) Barcelona, Spain godo[at]iiia.csic.es Souhila KACI Centre de Recherche en Informatique de Lens (CRIL) Lens, France kaci[at]cril.fr -------------------------------------- Dr. Souhila Kaci Associate Professor (MCF-HDR) CRIL - IUT de Lens Rue de l'Université SP 16 62307 Lens France Tel: (00 33) 3 21 79 32 74 Fax: (00 33) 3 21 79 32 72 http://www.cril.univ-artois.fr/~kaci/ ---------------------------------------
