Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning
Call For Papers
The Fourteenth International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Symposium
Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning seeks to bring together researchers
working on issues related to reasoning under uncertainty. FLAIRS 2001 will be
held in beautiful Key West, Florida. Additional information on the conference
locale and travel planning can be found at http://www.flairs.com
Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Papers of particular
interest to this track are:

- practical applications of uncertain reasoning
- inference of models from data, data mining, knowledge discovery
- construction of probabilistic models
- qualitative probabilistic reasoning
- decision-theoretic planning, POMDPs,
- systems of argumentation or defeasible reasoning, probability logics
- temporal reasoning and uncertainty


Special Issue in IEEE Trans SMC
