AISC 2018 Call for Papers

13th International Conference on
Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation
Suzhou, China, September 16-19, 2018

http://aisc2018.cc4cm.org


OVERVIEW

AISC is a forum for the exchange of ideas and the presentation of new tools
and solutions at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic
Computation. It aims to foster contacts and collaborations among researchers
from different fields related to AI and Symbolic Computation. The conference
is concerned with all aspects of research, including theory, implementations,
and applications.

AISC 2018 takes a broad view of AI that includes non-traditional areas such
as machine/deep learning and their interactions with logic and symbolic
reasoning. It will also have a special track on Collective Intelligence.

Conferences in this series are usually held every two years. The previous
five took place in Sevilla (Spain), Paris (France), Birmingham (United
Kingdom), Beijing (China), and Linz (Austria). AISC 2018 will take place in
Suzhou, China.

* Regular papers: maximum 15 pages.

* Short papers: maximum 5 pages that address the following aspects explicitly.
- Problem: what is the problem/question/objective?
- Motivation: why are we working on the problem and what is its importance?
- State of the art: what has been done already on the problem?
- Contribution: what is the main original contribution?
- Main idea: what is the main idea underlying the contribution?

Additional information:

* The submissions should indicate whether they are submitted as short or
regular papers as part of their titles (see the AISC webpage for
instructions). Aside from this they should follow the standard
Springer LNCS Proceedings format.
* Electronic submission as PDF should be via EasyChair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aisc2018.
* Accepted papers must be presented at the conference.
* If you have any problems with the submission of your paper, or questions
concerning AISC 2018 or EasyChair, please contact aisc2018@easychair.org.


PUBLICATION

The proceedings of AISC 2018 will be published by Springer in its LNAI series
