*************** JSAI 2001 International Workshops ***************
Date: 21 --22 May 2001
Supported by the Fifteenth Annual Conference of Japanese Society of
Artificial Intelligence (JSAI 2001), 22-25 May, 2001, Matsue, JAPAN
1. International workshops from JSAI
JSAI Annual conferences have been organized since 1987 to enhance
studies on artificial intelligence, mainly of Japanese domestic
researchers, with sessions mostly made of presentations/discussions
in Japanese.
The presentations in these series of events became the seeds of
various later success of basic and applied studies, not only in the
area of AI but also to authorized and newly recognized relevant
areas, e.g. successful business applications, robot soccer games etc.
JSAI2001 will be the first JSAI conference holding international
sessions and international workshops, co-located with the main
conference. This aims at having people looking at various current AI
studies/trends from various aspects stimulate each other, in an
environment where new meaningful directions are desired by attendants.
Workshops are intended to focus attentions to specific research
issues/ topics, and to informal and exciting presentations and
discussions on problems important even though not authorized, and
ideas interesting even though not yet established. Rather than
accepting matured results, we would like to supply places to make
new ideas and new meaningful directions grow.
