2nd CALL FOR PAPERS
10th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 92)
August 3-7, 1992, Vienna, Austria
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION: January 17, 1992
Papers must be received by the Programme Chairperson before January 17,
1992. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by April 1,
1992. Final camera-ready papers must be received by May 15, 1992.
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Authors are requested to submit to the Programme Chairperson 5 copies of
papers written in English in hardcopy format (electronic and fax
submissions will not be accepted). Submitted papers must be unpublished,
original work and substantially different from papers currently under
review. They must not be submitted elsewhere before notification date.
This restriction does not apply to workshops and similar specialized
presentations with a limited audience.
Papers can be either long papers (completed research: maximum 5000 words
/ 10 single-spaced pages) or short papers (ongoing research: maximum
2000 words / 4 pages). Each full page of figures counts as 500 words.
Each paper should contain an abstract (maximum 200 words). A separate
title page should include the title, the name(s) of the author(s),
complete address(es), the specification of one of the topics, and the
category long or short. Papers should be printed on A4 or 8.5" x 11"
sized paper in letter quality print, with 12 point type (10 chars/inch
on typewriter).
Work described in an accepted paper may also be illustrated with a
videotape or a demo. Special sessions will be scheduled for video
presentations and demos. Authors wishing to show a videotape or a demo
should specify the duration and the requirements of the videotape/demo
when submitting their paper for review.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
You are invited to submit an original research paper on any of the
following subjects:
- Automated Reasoning (e.g. automatic programming, reasoning with
uncertainty, theorem proving, constraint satisfaction, logic
programming, search)
- Cognitive Modeling (e.g. models for human problem solving and
information processing, memory models, computational theories in
psychology)
- Connectionist and PDP Models for AI (e.g. connectionist architectures,
connectionist learning, neural networks applications)
- Distributed AI and Multiagent Systems (e.g. distributed problem
solving, distributed resource allocation, communication,
cooperation)
- Enabling Technology and Systems (e.g. machine architectures, AI
computer languages, tools for AI system development)
- Integrated Systems (e.g. integrating several AI components, embedded
AI, integrating AI and conventional systems)
- Knowledge Representation (e.g. terminological knowledge, nonmonotonic
logic, foundations of temporal, causal and spatial reasoning,
abduction, common sense, complexity of reasoning)
- Machine Learning (e.g. inductive learning, knowledge intensive
learning, discovery, concept formation)
- Natural Language (e.g. text generation and understanding, speech
understanding, syntax, semantics, discourse, representation issues,
NL system architecture)
- Philosophical Foundations (e.g. philosophy of mind, functionalism and
AI, epistemological foundations)
- Planning, Scheduling, and Reasoning about Actions (e.g. temporal and
causal reasoning for planning, task scheduling, plan recognition,
resource allocation)
- Principles of AI Applications (e.g. generic applications, expert
system design, tutoring systems, knowledge acquisition, case-based
reasoning)
- Reasoning about Physical Systems (e.g. modeling, model-based
simulation, qualitative reasoning, diagnosis, design, monitoring,
applications of causal, temporal and spatial reasoning for
engineering, scientific, medical, economic problems)
- Robotics (e.g. connecting perception to action, sensor-motor systems,
kinematics, navigation, grasping)
- Social, Economic, Legal, and Artistic Implications (e.g. AI scenarios,
ethical issues, legal issues and responsibility, AI and music)
- User Interfaces (e.g. intelligent graphical interfaces, natural
language front ends, user models, knowledge-based information
presentation, artificial reality)
- Verification, Validation & Test of Knowledge-Based Systems (e.g.
improving and securing consistency, completeness, reliability)
- Vision and Signal Understanding (e.g. vision and perception in
biological and technical systems, sensor interpretation,
intelligent signal interpretation).

THE CONFERENCE
The European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI) is the
European forum for scientific exchange and presentation of AI research.
The aim of the conference is to cover all aspects of AI research and to
bring together basic research and applied research. The Technical
Programme will include paper presentations, invited talks, panels,
workshops, and tutorials. The conference is designed to cover all
subfields of AI, including non-symbolic methods.
ECAIs are held in alternate years and are organized by the European
Coordinating Committee for Artificial Intelligence (ECCAI). The 10th
ECAI in 1992 will be hosted by the Austrian Society for Artificial
Intelligence (OGAI). The conference will take place at the Vienna
University of Economics and Business Administration.
