[SIPTA] [UR @ FLAIRS 35] Call for Papers

by Antonucci Alessandro

*** Apologies for multiple postings *** UR @ FLAIRS 35 - Call for Papers Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning at the 35th Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-35) May 15-18, 2022 - Hutchinson Island, Jensen Beach, Florida (US) Paper submission deadline: February 14, 2022 (abstracts on February 7, 2022) Conference website: www.flairs-35.info Track website: ur-flairs.github.io/2022 ::: Call for Papers ::: Many problems in AI (in reasoning, planning, learning, perception and robotics) require the agent to operate with incomplete or uncertain information. The objective of this track is to present and discuss a broad and diverse range of current work on uncertain reasoning, including theoretical and applied research based on different paradigms. We hope that the variety and richness of this track will help to promote cross fertilisation among the different approaches for uncertain reasoning, and in turn foster the development of new ideas and paradigms. The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'22 Special Track at the 35th International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-33) is the 25th in the series. As in the past years, UR'20 track seeks to bring together researchers working on broad issues related to reasoning under uncertainty. Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Papers of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies - Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief functions, vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and probability logics - Modelling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate information, such as: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets of measures, and interval-valued probabilities - Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning - Inference and learning with graphical models of uncertainty (e.g., Bayesian networks) - Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making - Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision processes - Temporal reasoning and uncertainty, non-monotonic reasoning, similarity-based reasoning - Conditional logics, description logic, logic programming - Argumentation - Belief change and merging - Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and knowledge discovery - Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion, diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment - Uncertain reasoning in data management - Practical applications of uncertain reasoning (e.g., machine learning, computer vision and animation) ::: Program Committee ::: : Track Chairs : - Alessandro Antonucci (IDSIA, Switzerland) - Yang Xiang (University of Guelph, Canada) : PC Members : - Mohand Said Allili (Université du Québec en Outaouais) - Ofer Arieli (The Academic College of Tel-Aviv, Israel) - Salem Benferhat (University of Artois, France) - Ameur Bensefia (Higher Colleges of Technology, United Arab Emirates) - Stefano Bistarelli (University of Perugia, Italy) - Nizar Bouguila (Concordia University, Canada) - Cory Butz (University of Regina, Canada) - Martine Ceberio (University of Texas at El Paso, US) - Sébastien Destercke (University of Technology of Compiègne, France) - Love Ekenberg (Stockholm University, Sweden) - Lluis Godo (Spanish National Research Council, Spain) - Christophe Gonzales (LIS, France) - Pooyan Jamshidi (University of South Caroline, US) - Mohammad Ali Javidian (Purdue University, US) - Gabriele Kern-Isberner (University of Technology Dortmund, Germany) - Vladik Kreinovich (University of Texas at El Paso, US) - Philippe Leray (University of Nantes, France) - Nicholas Mattei (Tulane University, US) - Rafael Peñaloza (University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy) - Kamal Premaratne (University of Miami, US) - Eugene Santos (Dartmouth College, US) - Dilip Sarkar (University of Miami, US) - Kari Sentz (Los Alamos National Laboratory, US) - Karim Tabia (Artois University, France) - Carlo Taticchi (Univerity of Perugia, Italy - Choh Man Teng (Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, US) ::: Other Information ::: FLAIRS-35 is planned to run as a mild-hybrid conference. We will have a safe physical conference to the extent possible, but provide an option for online presentation for those who cannot attend the physical conference. Additional information on the venue can be found at www.flairs-35.info. Feel free to contact the organizers for any further information about the UR’22 special track. ::: Submission ::: Papers are due by January 24, 2022 (abstracts by January 17, 2022). Submissions of all papers to FLAIRS-35 is done through the EasyChair conference system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=flairs35 When submitting your paper, select the Uncertain Reasoning track. Double-blind reviewing is used for research papers, so submitted papers must not reveal authors identify (for example, use your paper ID from EasyChair instead of author name in your paper). Do NOT use a fake name for your EasyChair login; your EasyChair account information is hidden from reviewers. Authors should indicate the special track "Uncertain Reasoning" for submissions. There are three kinds of submissions: * full paper - a paper of high quality, which will be published in the proceedings (up to 6 pages) and will be presented by the author in a corresponding track (20 minute oral presentation); * short paper - a paper that shows some novelty and general interest, but is more preliminary or in the early stages of development, which also get published in the proceedings (up to 4 pages) and the author presents the work in a poster session; and * poster abstract, which will be published as abstract only (up to 250 words; please follow this format for the final camera-ready poster abstract) and the author presents the work in a poster session. Rejected full papers may still be accepted as short papers or poster abstracts, if reviewers found interest in the idea, but the paper quality was not sufficient to be published in full length. There will also be a separate abstract only submission for authors who want to submit just an abstract and present it in a poster session. For each accepted paper (full, short, or poster abstract), there must be an accompanying AUTHOR REGISTRATION. A single author may have up to a maximum of two papers per AUTHOR REGISTRATION. Author names may be changed or re-ordered after reviewing; however, for budgetary reasons, registration fees will be based on the details at the time of submission and review. The accepted papers in the track will be published in the proceedings of FLAIRS-35 published by the FloridaOJ. Authors are expected to make a reasonable effort to address reviewers’ comments prior to the submission of the camera ready paper. Where such expectations have been flouted, actions may be taken to preserve the quality of the conference and the expectations of conference goers. In order for a paper to be published in the proceedings, the paper must be accompanied by at least one AUTHOR REGISTRATION. It is also expected that for a full (i.e., maximum 6-page) paper, at least one of the authors will attend the conference to present the work.
