-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] CfP: 27th International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2019 22:08:17 +0000 From: Kerstin Bach kerstin.bach@ntnu.no Reply-To: Kerstin Bach kerstin.bach@ntnu.no To: wi@lists.kit.edu wi@lists.kit.edu

The ICCBR 2019 Organizers, Advisory Committee, and Program Committee invite submissions of original theoretical research, applied research and deployed application papers on all aspects of Case-Based Reasoning (CBR).  ICCBR is the premier, annual meeting of the CBR community and the leading international conference on this topic. This year’s conference will take place at the European Academy of Otzenhausen, in Otzenhausen, Germany, September 8 - 12, 2019. *The paper submission deadline is April 12, 2019.*

The theme for ICCBR 2019 is Explainable AI. To encourage this, the ICCBR 2019 program will include keynote addresses, a main technical track, a workshop program, a doctoral consortium, and other events, with several connections to this theme. We warmly welcome participation from all researchers and practitioners who have interest in case-based reasoning, including those who are working on related topics but have not previously attended ICCBR.

Topics of Interest We welcome submissions from all areas of case-based reasoning, and we especially encourage submissions at the intersection of CBR and Explainable AI.  Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

Foundations of Case-Based Reasoning - Case representation - Case retrieval, indexing, and similarity measures - Case reuse, adaptation, revision, and combination - Explanations - Case authoring, elicitation, and visualization - Analogical reasoning - Confidence and uncertainty - Cognitive modeling - Context models and preferences - Conversational CBR, user modeling, and personalization - Distributed CBR - Evaluation, simulation, and prediction - Maintenance, post-mortem analysis, and quality assessment CBR tasks - Design - Planning - Social CBR - Textual CBR - Recommender systems - Temporal reasoning (e.g., reasoning with traces, time series) - Workflow management and process-oriented CBR CBR and related fields - Analogical reasoning, cognitive models, and creative reasoning - Cloud CBR - Data mining and big data - Intelligent agents, perception, and action - Machine learning (e.g., deep, instance-based/lazy, relational) - Natural language processing and information retrieval - Robotics and human-robot interaction - Web CBR CBR systems, applications and lessons learned - CBR architectures and development frameworks - Cooking - Diagnosis, technical support - E-science - Economics, finance - Education, learning - Energy, logistics, traffic - Finance - Game AI - Knowledge and experience management - Medicine, health - Science, engineering

Review Criteria Each submission must be identified as presenting theoretical/methodological research, applied research, or a deployed application and will be reviewed using criteria appropriate to its category. The criteria are as follows: Theoretical research: Scientific significance, originality, technical quality, and clarity Applied research: Significance for theoretical research or application deployment; originality; technical quality; and clarity Deployed application: Demonstrated practical significance; originality; treatment of issues of engineering, management, and user acceptance; and clarity. Papers will be considered for poster and oral presentation based on the reviews.

Proceedings All accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series. All authors must format their papers according to Springer's LNCS formatting guidelines.

Submission Procedure Authors must submit a full paper by the conference paper submission deadline, formatted according to the Springer LNCS formatting guidelines (Link). Papers (submitted and final) will be no longer than 15 pages, including references. Please submit papers using the EasyChair conference management system, found at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iccbr2019.

Multiple Submission Policy Papers submitted to other conferences must state this fact as a footnote on page 1, and please also notify the program co-chairs by email. If a paper will appear in another conference or journal, it must be withdrawn from ICCBR 2019. This restriction does not apply to papers submitted to specialized workshops without archival proceedings.

Author Registration Policy In order for a paper to appear in the proceedings, at least one of the authors must register for the conference by the camera-ready copy deadline.

Important Dates Paper Submission Deadline:     April 12, 2019 Notification of Acceptance:        June 3, 2019 Camera Ready Copy:                July 1, 2019 Conference Dates:                    September 8 – 12, 2019
