ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS
AITS @ EPIA2011
A Thematic Track to be held at
The 15th Portuguese Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA2011
October 10-13, Lisbon, Portugal
http://epia2011.appia.pt/
*******************************************************************************
NEW!!! ABSTRACT SUBMISSION: May 10, 2011
PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: May 17, 2011
AIM AND SCOPE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Thematic Track on Artificial Intelligence in Transportation Systems
(AITS@EPIA2011) aims to promote an interdisciplinary debate on current
developments and advances of AI techniques in a rather practical perspective,
focusing on transportation and mobility systems. This Thematic Track, in its
3rd edition, will act as a unique platform gathering the AI community,
transportation and other social sciences’ practitioners to discuss how cutting-
edge AI technologies can be effectively developed and applied to improve
transportation performance towards sustainable systems. This forum is an
opportunity for the technical and scientific community to present progresses
made so far, and as a means to generate new ideas towards building innovative
applications of AI technologies into smarter, greener and safer transportation
systems, stimulating contributions that emphasise on how theory and practice
are effectively coupled to solve real-life problems in contemporary
transportation.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The AITS Thematic Track welcomes and encourages contributions reporting on
original research, work under development and experiments of different AI
techniques, such as neural networks, biologically inspired approaches,
evolutionary algorithms, knowledge-based and expert systems, case-based
reasoning, fuzzy logics, intelligent agents and multi-agent systems, support
vector regression, data mining and other pattern-recognition and optimisation
techniques, as well as concepts such as ambient intelligence and ubiquitous
computing, service-oriented architectures, and ontology, to address specific
issues in contemporary transportation, which would include (but are not
limited to):
* different modes of transport and their interactions (air, road, rail and
water transports);
* intelligent traffic management and control;
* transportation policy, planning, design and management;
* environmental issues, road pricing, security and safety;
* logistics and transportation systems operation;
* innovative technologies in transportation;
* travel demand analysis, prediction and transportation marketing;
* traveller information systems and services;
* ubiquitous transportation and ambient intelligence;
* pedestrian and crowd simulation and analysis;
* cooperative vehicle-infrastructure systems;
* autonomous driving and automated highway systems;
* modelling and simulation of transportation networks;
* assessment methodologies for ITS-based solutions; and,
* artificial transportation systems.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS AND PUBLICATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Papers should not exceed fifteen (15) pages in length and must be formatted
according to the information for LNCS authors. Papers must be submitted in PDF
(Adobe’s Portable Document Format) format and will not be accepted in any other
format. Papers that exceed 15 pages or do not follow the LNCS guidelines risk
being rejected automatically without a review. At least one author of each
accepted paper must register for the conference. More information about the
Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) is available on the
Springer LNCS Web site.
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0
Papers of higher quality will be selected for publication in the main volume of
the Conference Proceedings, to be published by Springer in their LNAI series.
The remaining accepted papers will be published in the local Conference
Proceedings, in hard-copy, on CD-ROM and on the web.
Further and up-to-date information can be found on the official web site of the
conference at http://epia2011.appia.pt/.
