Ninth International Conference on Scalable Uncertainty Management
(SUM 2015)
Quebec, Canada -- September 16-18, 2015
http://www.fernuni-hagen.de/wbs/sum2015
The International Conference on Scalable Uncertainty Management (SUM) is
an annual conference that was launched in 2007 with the goal to exploit
and strengthen the connection between the Artificial Intelligence and
Database communities. It aims at bringing together all those researchers
interested in the management of uncertain, incomplete or inconsistent
information. Such information originates commonly in applications where
significant computational effort is needed to process data in a meaningful
and semantically justifiable manner. Typical applications of that kind
include databases, the Web, and the life sciences.
Papers are solicited in all areas of managing and reasoning with
substantial and complex kinds of uncertain, incomplete or inconsistent
information. These include (but are not restricted to) applications in
decision support systems, risk analysis, machine learning, belief
networks, logics of uncertainty, belief revision and update,
argumentation, negotiation technologies, semantic web applications, search
engines, ontology systems, information fusion, information retrieval,
natural language processing, information extraction, image recognition,
vision systems, data and text mining, and the consideration of issues such
as provenance, trust, heterogeneity, and complexity of data and knowledge.
PUBLICATION
The proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series
Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence.
