The 2010 Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial
Intelligence
(TAAI 2010) is the 15th annual conference sponsored by the Taiwanese
Association
for AI and one of the most important annual academic meetings on Artificial
Intelligence in Taiwan. The conference will be held in Hsinchu, Taiwan, on
November 18-20, 2010.
The purpose of this conference is to bring together scientists, engineers
and
practitioners in different disciplines and researchers to present and
exchange
ideas, results and experiences in the area of AI technologies and
applications.
In particular, to showcase the intelligence of computers with AI, the
conference will host the events of computer game tournaments for games such
as
Go, Chinese Chess, Connect6, etc. The 2010 World Computer Chinese Chess
Championship will be jointly held with the conference.
The conference also includes workshops, panels and technical sessions with
refereed papers from the AI research community. High quality research
papers
are solicited on the topics of particular interest include, but are not
limited to:
* Agents
* AI Applications
* AI Architectures
* Computer Games
* Computer Vision
* Data Mining
* Genetic Algorithms
* Information Retrieval and Integration
* Intelligent Environment
* Intelligent e-learning
* Logics in AI
* Knowledge-Based Systems

Keynote Speakers
================
This conference invites some prestigious researchers as keynote speakers,
such as Professor Tom Mitchell as follows.
Tom M. Mitchell
His research interests include computer science, machine learning,
artificial intelligence, and cognitive
neuroscience. He received many honors, such as University Professor at
Carnegie-Mellon University in 2009,
Elected to National Academy of Engineering in 2010, Elected Fellow of
American Association for the
Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 2008, Elected Fellow of the Association for
the Advancement of Artificial
Intelligence (AAAI) in 1990, and NSF Presidential Young Investigator Award
in 1984.
Feng-Hsiung Hsu
Feng-hsiung Hsu was the architect and the principal designer of the IBM Deep
Blue chess machine that beat
Kasparov, the World Human Chess Champion. He was the recipient of the 1990
Mephisto Award for his
doctoral dissertation and also the 1991 ACM Grace Murray Hopper Award for
his contributions in architecture
and algorithms for chess machines. In 1988, he was part of the "Deep
Thought" team that won the Fredkin
Intermediate Prize for Deep Thought's Grandmaster-level performance. Hsu now
manages the platforms and
devices center of Microsoft Research Asia, in Beijing.
Other invited speakers include (1) Professor Olivier Teytaud at Universite
Paris-Sud, France,
(2) Professor Irwin King at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong,
and
