First CALL FOR PAPERS
Fourteenth Dutch-Belgian Conference on Machine Learning
Benelearn 2005
Enschede, 17-18 February, 2005
http://hmi.ewi.utwente.nl/conference/benelearn2005
Benelearn is the annual machine learning conference of Belgium and
The Netherlands. It serves as a forum for researchers in this field to
exchange ideas and present recent work. The official language of the
conference is English. Benelearn 2005 will be organized by the Human
Media Interaction (HMI) Group of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering,
Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) at the University of Twente
in the Netherlands.
Benelearn wants to broaden its focus to disciplines that are closely
related to Machine Learning. Therefore, we invite papers relevant to
machine learning and related disciplines in the broadest sense,
especially papers that cross borders between disciplines, for example
in bioinformatics and machine learning in multi-modal interaction.
Possible paper topics include, but are not limited to:
Kernel Methods Decision-Theoretic Planning
Bayesian Networks Case-based Learning
Computational Learning Theory Data Mining
Evolutionary Computation Hybrid Learning Systems
Graphical Models Inductive Learning
Inductive Logic Programming Knowledge Discovery in Databases
Language Learning Learning and Problem Solving
Learning by Analogy Learning in Multi-Agent Systems
Learning in Dynamic Domains Learning to/for Search
Multistrategy Learning Neural Networks
Reinforcement Learning Robot Learning
Scientific Discovery Meta-Learning
Statistical Methods Probabilistic Logic Learning
Applications of Machine Learning, e.g.
Bioinformatics
Multi-Modal Interaction
Speech & Language Processing
Robotics
Web/Link Mining
Computer Games
Papers are limited to 8 pages (using a 11pt Times Roman font),
including figures, title page, references, and appendices. Style files
can be downloaded from the conference web site. The papers will be
primarily refereed on their relevance to the conference, and according
to clarity and overall quality criteria.
Email submissions are strongly preferred. Please send a PostScript or
PDF file to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
