Call for Papers Ninth European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty (ECSQARU’07) October 31, November 1-2 2007, Hammamet, Tunisia http://www.isg.rnu.tn/larodec/ecsqaru2007 http://www.ecsqaru.org/ ECSQARU-2007: Call for Papers The biannual ECSQARU conferences are a major forum for advances in the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty. Contributors are expected to come both from researchers interested in advancing the technology and from practitioners who are using uncertainty techniques in applications. The scope of ECSQARU includes, but is not limited to, fundamental issues, representation, inference, learning, and decision making in qualitative and numeric paradigms. Previous ECSQARU conferences have been held in Marseille (1991), Granada (1993), Fribourg (1995), Bonn (1997), London (1999), Toulouse (2001), Aalborg (2003) and Barcelona (2005). The Ninth European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty (ECSQARU-07) will be held in Hammamet, Tunisia, on October 31, November 1-2 2007. ECSQARU-07 provides an open forum for advances in the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty. Contributions come from both researchers interested in advancing the technology and from practitioners who are using uncertainty techniques in applications. The scope of the conference includes, but is not limited to, fundamental issues, representation, inference, learning, and decision making in qualitative and numeric paradigms. Topics of Interest Possible topics include, but are not limited to: Foundations of reasoning and decision making under uncertainty Default reasoning Bayesian networks Belief revision & inconsistency handling Causal networks Argumentation systems Decision theory and graphs Learning for uncertainty formalisms Markov decision processes Automated planning & acting Game theoretic agents Information fusion Belief functions Uncertainty & data mining Fuzzy sets and Fuzzy Logic Classification & clustering Rough sets Algorithms for uncertain inference Possibility theory Empirical studies of algorithms Logics for reasoning under uncertainty Implementation and applications of uncertain systems Important Dates Paper submission: 14 April 2007 Workshop proposal: 24 April 2007 Notifications of acceptance: 15 June 2007 Camera-ready copy due: 08 July 2007 Organization Conference Chair Khaled Mellouli (IHEC, Tunisia) Organizing Committee Nahla Ben Amor (ISG, Tunisia) Amel Ben Yaghlane (ISG, Tunisia) Boutheina Ben Yaghlane (IHEC, Tunisia) Zied Elouedi (ISG, Tunisia) Hajer Esseghir (ISG, Tunisia) Ilyes Jenhani (ISG, Tunisia) Fedia Khalfallah (FSEGT, Tunisia) Program Committee Foued Ben Abdelaziz (Tunisia) Nahla Ben Amor (Tunisia) Salem Benferhat (France) Boutheina Ben Yaghlane (Tunisia) Isabelle Bloch (France) Philippe Besnard (France) Gerd Brewka (Germany) Luis M. de Campos (Spain) Carlos Chesñevar (Spain) Giulianella Coletti (Italia) Fabio Cozman (Brazil) Adnan Darwiche (USA) James P.

Zhang (HK, China) Paper preparation and submission The conference proceedings will be published as a volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series of Springer. Authors are thus requested to prepare their papers in the LNCS/LNAI format . Each paper must not exceed 12 pages in length. Papers that are not in the stated format or that exceed the page limit will not be reviewed. Submission guidelines are to be found in the conference website. Submitted papers will be evaluated by peer review on the basis of originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. All accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings. Authors of accepted papers are expected to attend the conference and make oral presentations about their work. . Once you have your paper in its final form, please gather the .pdf file, the source file (.tex, .doc or .rtf), figure files (.ps, .eps, .pdf), or any other file you use to prepare your paper (.dvi files for latex users) Contact For any additional information, please contact us at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
