AISTATS*2012 Call for Abstracts
Fifteenth International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Statistics
April 21-23, 2012, La Palma, Canary Islands
http://www.aistats.org
AISTATS is an interdisciplinary gathering of researchers at the
intersection of computer science, artificial intelligence, machine
learning, statistics, and related areas. Since its inception in 1985, the
primary goal of AISTATS has been to broaden research in these fields by
promoting the exchange of ideas among them. We encourage the submission of
all papers which are in keeping with this objective at
http://www.aistats.org.
This year's invited talks will be given by Sir David Cox (Oxford), Gábor
Lugosi (Pompeu Fabra) and Rien van de Weygaert (Groningen).
This call is for "breaking news" abstracts to be presented at the
conference in the form of a poster. These should be reports on ongoing or
unpublished projects, projects already published elsewhere, partially
developed ideas, negative results etc, and are meant as informal forums to
encourage discussion. Abstracts will be lightly reviewed. Acceptance
notifications will be emailed by February 24th. The abstracts will be
presented as posters at the conference but will not be published in the
proceedings.
Solicited topics include, but are not limited to:
* Bayesian models and estimation (graphical models, causality, Gaussian
processes, approximate inference, ...)
* Non-Bayesian models and estimation (kernel methods, nonparametric
models, statistical and computational learning theory, manifolds and
embedding, sparsity and compressed sensing, ...)
* Classification, regression, density estimation, unsupervised and
semi-supervised learning, clustering, topic models, ...
* Structured prediction, relational learning, logic and probability
* Reinforcement learning, planning, control
* Game theory, no-regret learning, multi-agent systems
* Algorithms and architectures for high-performance computation in AI and
statistics
* Software for and applications of AI and statistics
