Call for Conference Participation
16th European Conference on Artificial Intelligent (2004)
ECAI 2004

August 22-27, 2004
Valencia, Spain

****************************************

****************************************

Every even-numbered year, ECCAI, with the AI national association 
members of ECCAI, organizes the European Conference on AI. This 
conference, abbreviated ECAI, is more and more becoming the key 
reference point for assessing the worldwide State-of-the-Art in 
Artificial Intelligence. The conference is intended to bring together 
researchers from academy, software developers and users from industry 
and public organizations, offering them invaluable occasions to meet and 
exchange ideas, thus contributing to making real the upcoming 
"Information Society".

The two most recent conferences were ECAI-2000 in Berlin, Germany on 
20-25 August 2000, hosted by GI/KI. and on 21-26 July 2002 AFIA hosted 
ECAI-2002 in Lyon, France.

The 16th biennial European Conference on Artificial Intelligence 
(ECAI-2004) will take place in Valencia,Spain on 23-27 August 2004. It 
is hosted by AEPIA and ACIA.

Along with refereed paper presentations, invited talks by prestigious 
speakers, and posters, the conference will offer, on August 22 through 
24, 2004, workshops and tutorials on most advanced topics.

The ECAI organizing committee cordially invites you to participate in 
ECAI 2004.

 Conference topics include:

Abduction, AI and Creativity, AI Architectures, Art and Music, Automated 
Reasoning, Autonomous Agents, Bayesian Learning, Belief Revision, 
Case-Based Reasoning, Causal Reasoning, Cognitive Modelling, Cognitive 
Robotics, Common-Sense Reasoning, Computer-Aided Learning, Conceptual 
Graphs, Constraint Programming, Constraint Satisfaction, Data Mining, 
Decision Theory, Deduction, Description Logics, Design, Diagnosis, 
Discourse Modelling, Distributed AI, Game Playing, Genetic Algorithms, 
Geometric Reasoning, Information Extraction, Information Retrieval, 
Intelligent User Interfaces, Knowledge Acquisition, Knowledge-Based 
Systems, Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Representation, Logic 
Programming, Machine Learning, Machine Translation, Meta-Heuristics for 
AI, Model-Based Reasoning, Multi-Agent Systems, Natural Language 
Processing, Neural Networks, Nonmonotonic Reasoning, Ontologies, 
Perception, Philosophical Foundations, Planning, Probabilistic 
Reasoning, Qualitative Reasoning, Real-Time Systems, Reasoning about 
Actions and Change, Reasoning under Uncertainty, Reinforcement Learning, 
Resource-Bounded Reasoning, Reuse of Knowledge, Robotics, Satisfiability 
Testing, Scheduling, Search, Spatial Reasoning, Speech Processing, 
Temporal Reasoning, Text Mining, Theorem Proving, User Modelling, 
Verification and Validation, Vision.

ECAI is co-located with the "Prestigious Applications of Intelligent 
Systems" (PAIS-2004) sub-conference and the Second European Starting AI 
Researcher Symposium (STAIRS'2004).

ECAI 2004 will be held in Valencia. Valencia is the Capital city of the 
Valencian Community. It is situated on the east coast of Spain. With the 
passing of the centuries, numerous historical events have left their 
mark on the city thereby enriching its heritage. It has become, 
culturally and economically, not only one of the main cities in the 
Autonomous Region, but in Spain.
