- CALL FOR PAPERS
-
- The AAAI-93 Workshop on Case-Based Reasoning
- --------------------------------------------
-
- Washington, D.C., July 1993
-
-
- Description of the Workshop:
- ---------------------------
-
- Case-based reasoning (CBR) is an increasingly important paradigm for
- learning and reasoning in Artificial Intelligence systems. The last
- case-based reasoning workshop, held in May of 1991, established
- directions for advancing case-based reasoning. Since that workshop,
- considerable progress has been made. Major research efforts are
- addressing fundamental theoretical issues in CBR, while burgeoning
- activity in CBR applications is evidenced by the growing number of
- commercial CBR products. However, there has been no opportunity for
- the case-based reasoning community to gather to relate the results of
- these efforts. The AAAI-93 Workshop on Case-Based Reasoning will
- bring together investigators from theoretical and applied viewpoints
- to exchange results and discuss their ramifications. By providing
- perspective on the fundamental issues of the field, the workshop will
- both advance the state of the art and define directions for future
- progress.
-
-
- Topics:
- ------
-
- - Progress in content theories and knowledge representation
- - Theoretical and applied results in indexing and case retrieval
- - Methods for similarity assessment
- - Theory and practice of case adaptation
- - Hybrid systems
- - Strengths, limitations and open issues of implemented CBR systems
-
-
- Format of workshop:
- ------------------
-
- The workshop will take place over two days. The first day will
- concentrate on theoretical research, and the second will examine
- practical progress in implementing CBR systems. Each day of the
- workshop will begin with an invited talk, followed by paper sessions
- moderated by discussants. Ample time will be reserved for open
- discussion. The workshop will close with a panel representing both
- academics and industry that will discuss major issues and conclusions
- from the workshop.
-
- Attendance:
- ----------
-
- Attendance will be limited to 50 invitees, primarily those presenting
- papers, serving as discussants and participating in the final panel.
- As space permits, a few additional people will be invited to attend
- based on a brief statement of interest (see below).
-
-
- Submission requirements:
- -----------------------
-
- Five (5) copies of each paper should be submitted in hard copy form.
- Submitted papers should include a cover page containing paper title,
- authors' names, postal addresses, electronic mail addresses, telephone
- numbers, and a brief abstract. Papers should be in 12 point type and
- should not exceed 12 single-spaced pages including figures and
- bibliography. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to provide
- camera ready copy; notifications of acceptance will be accompanied by
- formatting instructions. Those who wish to attend without presenting
- a paper should submit a brief statement of interest and relevant work.
-
- Accepted papers will be distributed to all workshop participants in
- the form of working notes. The AAAI Press will publish a technical
- report based on the working notes for wider distribution, but authors
- may choose to have their papers appear only in the working notes.
- Notifications of acceptance will be accompanied by a nonexclusive
- permission form that must be completed by authors who wish to have
- their papers included in the technical report.
-
-
- Submission deadline: March 12, 1993

- Notification date: April 2, 1993
