JSAI 2001 Workshops Call for Proposals
The Fifteenth Annual Conference of
Japanese Society of Artificial Intelligence (JSAI 2001)
May 22-25, 2001, Matsue, Shimane, JAPAN
********************************************************************
*********************** Call for Proposals ************************
********************************************************************
JSAI Annual conferences have been organized since 1987 to enhance
studies on artificial intelligence, mainly of Japanese domestic
researchers, with sessions mostly made of presentations/discussions
in Japanese.
The presentations in these series of events became the seeds of
various later success of basic and applied studies, not only in the
area of AI but also to authorized and newly recognized relevant areas,
e.g. successful business applications, robot soccer games etc.
JSAI2001 will be the first JSAI conference holding international
sessions and international workshops, co-located with the main
conference. This aims at having people looking at various current AI
studies/trends from various aspects stimulate each other, in an
environment where new meaningful directions are desired by attendants.
Workshops are intended to focus attentions to specific research issues/
topics, and to informal and exciting presentations and discussions on
problems important even though not authorized, and ideas interesting
even though not yet established. Rather than accepting matured results,
we would like to supply places to make new ideas and new meaningful
directions grow.
The chair of each workshop is expected to define the focus of the
workshop by September 30. If the proposed workshop is accepted as one
to be realized, the chair and the co-chairs (organized by the chair)
review submissions and decide the program with kindly considering the
workshop organizing policies of JSAI.
Workshop proposals (details below) should be sent to the Workshops
Chair (to the address below) electronically by the deadline
