================================================
Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR)
FLAIRS-27
http://ur14.west.uni-koblenz.de
Pensacola Beach, Florida, USA
May 21-23, 2014
================================================
Many problems in AI (in reasoning, planning, learning, perception and
robotics) require the agent to operate with incomplete or uncertain
information. The objective of this track is to present and discuss a
broad and diverse range of current work on uncertain reasoning,
including theoretical and applied research based on different paradigms.
We hope that the variety and richness of this track will help to promote
cross fertilization among the different approaches for uncertain
reasoning, and in this way foster the development of new ideas and
paradigms.
The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in
FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2014 Special
Track at the 27th International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research
Society Conference (FLAIRS-27) is the 19th in the series. As the past
tracks, UR'2014 seeks to bring together researchers working on broad
issues related to reasoning under uncertainty.
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,
vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and probability logics
- Modeling 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
- Bayesian networks
- Graphical models of uncertainty
- Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
- Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
- Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
- Nonmonotonic reasoning
- Conditional Logics
- Argumentation
- Belief change and Merging
- Similarity-based reasoning
- 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
All accepted papers will be published as FLAIRS proceedings by AAAI
Press. We anticipate that, as in previous years, a special issue in an
international journal will be devoted to extended versions of the top
papers at the track..
Submission
==========
Interested authors should format their papers according to AAAI
formatting guidelines. The papers should be original work (i.e., not
submitted, in submission, or submitted to another conference while in
review). Papers should not exceed 6 pages (4 pages for a poster) and are
due by November 18, 2013. For FLAIRS-27, the 2014 conference, the
reviewing is a double blind process. Fake author names and affiliations
must be used on submitted papers to provide double-blind reviewing. The
papers will be reviewed by at least three reviewers. Papers must be
submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system (Link to be
announced), which can also be accessed through the main conference web
site (http://www.flairs-27.info). Note: Do not use a fake name for your
EasyChair login - your EasyChair account information is hidden from
reviewers.
Authors should indicate the special track "Uncertain Reasoning" for
submissions.
The proceedings of FLAIRS-27 will be published by the AAAI. Authors of
accepted papers will be required to sign a form transferring copyright
of their contribution to AAAI.
At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register,
attend, and present the paper at FLAIRS-27.
