------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** PROBABILISTIC PROBLEM SOLVING IN BIOMEDICINE (ProBioMed'11) ** -------------------------------------------------------------------------
* CALL FOR PAPERS * Workshop in conjunction with AIME-2011, Bled, Slovenia. Workshop URL: http://probiomed.cs.ru.nl/ o Deadline for submissions April 14, 2011 o Notification of acceptance May 8, 2011 o Final camera-ready manuscript June 8, 2011 o Workshop date July 2, 2011 We seek high quality contributions of applications of probabilistic modelling, reasoning, and learning to problems in biomedicine as well as papers proposing theoretical foundations of such methods. Topics of interest include (for details see http://probiomed.cs.ru.nl): * Probabilistic modelling methods applied to biomedical problems: o Probabilistic graphical models (such as, Bayesian networks, Markov models, causal networks, etc.) o Dynamic probabilistic models (MDPs, POMDPs, DBNs, ...) o Influence diagrams and decision networks o Probabilistic logics o Imprecise probabilities * Innovative probabilistic methods for biomedical problem solving: o Diagnostic models o Prediction models for prognosis o Treatment selection and monitoring o Multi-morbidity models o Epidemiological models, e.g., of infectious disease spread * Learning methods: o Multi-relational learning o Probabilistic structure and parameter learning o Probabilistic classifiers * Innovative biomedical applications of probabilistic models: o Probabilistic models for personalised medicine o Patient (tele)medicine (in the management of stroke, COPD, diabetes, etc.) o Probabilistic models for translational medicine o Analysis of clinical practice guidelines Papers should be written in English, formatted according to the Springer LNCS style, and not exceed 12 pages. Paper submission is electronic via https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=probiomed11 At least one co-author of a workshop paper should be present at AIME, and has to register also to the main conference (in addition to registration to the workshop). Extended versions of selected submissions will be considered for a special issue in the Artificial Intelligence in Medicine journal. * INVITED SPEAKERS * o Milos Hauskrecht (University of Pittsburg, USA) o Jesse Davis (KU Leuven, Belgium) * WORKSHOP ORGANISERS AND CONTACT * Arjen Hommersom (arj...@cs.ru.nl) and Peter Lucas (pet...@cs.ru.nl) * PROGRAMME COMMITTEE * o Juan-Manuel Ahuactzin (ProBayes, France) o Nicos Angelopoulos (Netherlands Cancer Institute, The Netherlands) o Péter Antal (Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Hungary) o Alexandre Aussem (University of Lyon 1, France) o Riccardo Bellazzi (University of Pavia, Italy) o Concha Bielza (Technical University of Madrid, Spain) o Hendrik Blockeel (KU Leuven, Belgium) o Luis M. de Campos (University of Granada, Spain) o Andrés Cano (University of Granada, Spain) o Robert Castelo (Pompeu Fabra University, Spain) o Li Cheng (A*STAR, Singapore) o Jesse Davis (KU Leuven, Belgium) o Javier Díez (UNED, Spain) o Marek J Druzdzel (University of Pittsburgh, USA and Bialystok University of Technology, Poland) o Norman Fenton (Queen Mary University of London, UK) o Julia Flores (UCLM, Spain) o Linda van der Gaag (Utrecht University, The Netherlands) o Jose Antonio Gamez Martin (UCLM, Spain) o Manuel Gómez Olmedo (University of Granada, Spain) o Jesús A.
