************** AISB 2007 CONVENTION: CALL FOR SYMPOSIUM PROPOSALS
**************
2-5 April 2007, Newcastle upon Tyne,
http://www.aisb.org/convention/aisb07
The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of
Behaviour
(AISB) is pleased to announce its forthcoming convention to be held at
Newcastle
University, Newcastle Upon Tyne, 2-5 April 2007. The AISB
convention is an
annual event organised as a number of collocated symposia
interspersed with
invited plenary talks. In addition to symposia related to the
theme of the
convention, proposals are welcomed in all areas relating to AI and
cognitive
science. The theme of this year's convention is:
Artificial and Ambient Intelligence
Ambient Intelligence (also known as Ubiquitous or Pervasive
Computing) is an
emerging research area that has received much attention in recent
years. As a
field it is concerned with the implications of embedding computing
devices into
the environment, and with how human and artificial agents can make
use of and
interact in such technological contexts. Many of the key research
issues in
Ambient Intelligence can benefit from AI methods, and research
into the
application of artificial intelligence in this field is likely to
further
advance AI.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Intelligent environments
- Computer vision in ambient intelligent and mobile systems
- Natural language processing in ambient intelligent and mobile systems
- Representation and reasoning in ambient intelligent and mobile systems
- Affective computing for ambient intelligent systems
- Learning for ambient intelligent and mobile systems
- Autonomous and autonomic systems
- Intelligent user interfaces for mobile computing
- Cognitive systems for ambient intelligence
- Modelling, acquiring and reasoning about context
- Resource adaptation
- Agency and trust in ubiquitous systems
- Distributed reasoning
- Ontology sharing
We particularly invite proposals for one- or two-day symposia
on topics
covering issues in Ambient Intelligence research but would like to
emphasise
that submissions from ALL areas relating to AI and cognitive science
will be
welcomed. The deadline for symposium proposals is:
August 1st, 2006 (Firm deadline)
Submissions should consist of a short (one page) case for support
describing the
relevance of the symposium (including a justification for the
proposed length
of one or two days), and a preliminary call for papers. Please send
proposals
(and any questions) to both chairs:
Patrick Olivier ([log in to unmask])
Chris Kray ([log in to unmask])
We are looking forward to your submission.
Patrick Olivier & Chris Kray (convention chairs)
