ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Artificial Intelligence in Music and Art
Special Track of the 19th International FLAIRS Conference
Melbourne Beach, Florida, Florida, May 11-13, 2006
http://aima2006.dei.uc.pt/
INTRODUCTION
The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in the fields
of Art and Music is a significant and captivating research area. There
is a growing interest in applications of AI in visual arts, music,
graphics, video, sound, architecture, design of artifacts, and other
creative endeavors.
OBJECTIVE
This special track will provide an international forum for researchers,
scientists, and practitioners to present results from on-going AI work
in the fields of Music and Art. The objective of this track is to foster
the creation, refinement and transfer of such ideas, and to promote
their cross-fertilization over all AI paradigms and relevant application
domains.
LOCATION
The track will be held in Melbourne Beach, Florida, on May 11-13, 2006,
in conjunction with the FLAIRS 2006 conference
(http://www.indiana.edu/~flairs06/).
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
We invite original and unpublished contributions on AI applications in
the analysis, composition, generation, interpretation, performance,
evaluation, classification, and data mining of artifacts from various
creative endeavors and fields, such as visual art, graphics, video,
music, sounds, architecture, design of physical artifacts, sculpture,
literature, poetry, etc.
Accepted papers will be presented at the conference and included in the
FLAIRS 2006 conference proceedings, published by AAAI Press.
SCOPE AND TOPICS
We invite research from all AI paradigms including symbolic,
statistical, connectionist, genetic, distributed, and hybrid approaches.
The track covers a wide range of AI techniques including (but not
limited to) cognitive modeling, data mining and classification, expert
systems, generative systems (A-life, chaos, fractals, L-systems),
grammars, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms, hidden Markov models,
intelligent agents, knowledge representation, knowledge-based systems,
machine learning, natural language processing, neural networks,
constraint satisfaction, perception, planning, reasoning and
inferencing, and swarm intelligence.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers must be submitted on-line, following the FLAIRS submission
guidelines, and no later than November 21, 2005. They must be written in
proper English, no longer than 6 pages, including references, and
formatted in AAAI two-column, camera-ready style. Papers must be
formatted for US Letter (8-1/2" x 11") paper. For additional details,
see conference website (http://www.indiana.edu/~flairs06/).
REVIEWING PROCESS
Reviewing will be doubly blind. Authors should remove their names and
affiliations from submitted papers, and should take reasonable care that
their identity is disguised. References to own work should be referred
to in the third person, e.g., "Smith (Smith 2003) has shown...,".
TIMETABLE FOR AUTHORS
Paper submissions are due electronically by November 21, 2005.
Notification letters will be sent via email by January 20, 2006. Final
camera-ready copies are due electronically by February 13, 2006.
