Topics of Interest

-----------------------------------------------------------------


The conference covers broadly the many aspects of theoretical and applied Artificial Intelligence. A series of workshops dedicated to specific topics enhances the program. AIIA 2019 welcomes submissions covering all areas of AI, including (but not limited to) machine learning, search, planning, knowledge representation, reasoning, constraint satisfaction, natural language processing, robotics and perception, and multiagent systems. We encourage all types of high-quality contributions including theoretical, engineering and applied papers. We also encourage contributions on AI techniques in the context of novel application domains, such as security, sustainability, health care, transportation, and commerce.


Besides regular original papers, in this edition we also welcome discussion papers containing descriptions of results recently published or accepted for the presentation in international conferences. Discussion papers are expected to be more broadly accessible than regular papers, they are an opportunity for the authors to present their recent results to the AI community, and a valuable addition for the attendees of AIIA 2019.


At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and attend the conference to present the work.

Proceedings of Regular Papers

The regular papers will be included in the proceedings of the conference, and will be published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series.
