----------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Belief function theory and knowledge management Special Session to be held as part of IPMU-2010, 13-th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INFORMATION PROCESSING AND MANAGEMENT OF UNCERTAINTY IN KNOWLEDGEBASED SYSTEMS June 28-July 2, 2010 – Dortmund, Germany -----------------------------------------------------------
The theory of belief functions is considered as a useful theory for representing and managing uncertain knowledge. This theory was introduced by Shafer as a model to represent quantified beliefs. It is also called Dempster-Shafer theory or evidence theory. This approach has been increasingly applied in several fields like artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining, graphical models, information fusion, web semantics, etc. This session is dedicated to papers presenting current developments, and results of various aspects of the use of the belief function theory to manage knowledge. So, original papers with theoretical and/or practical contributions are solicited. This session includes (but is not limited to) the following topics related to the use of belief function theory for the management of knowledge in: - Machine learning - Datamining - Graphical models - Web semantics - Information fusion - Business decision, etc ----------------------------------------------------------- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS To prepare a submission, please follow the same instructions as for the main conference (see http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~ipmu2010/instructions.html). Special session papers will be handled in the same way as regular papers. In particular, they will be peer-reviewed by the conference program committee on the basis of the same criteria. When submitting the paper through the conference management system, authors are asked to indicate that their contribution is suitable to this special session related to Belief function theory and knowledge management. ----------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Jan17, 2010: Deadline for paper submission Mar 07, 2010: Notification of acceptance Apr 4, 2010: Final camera ready copies due ----------------------------------------------------------- SESSION ORGANIZERS Zied Elouedi High Institute of Management of Tunis, LARODEC, Tunisia [email protected] Thierry Denoeux University of Compiègne, CNRS, France [email protected] -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!
