Hello,
I will appreciate if you can send the following call for papers to the
UAI members.
Best regards,

              Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR)
                  
                 http://www.irit.fr/~Laurent.Perrussel/ur10/

                              FLAIRS-23
                    Daytona Beach, Florida, USA 
                           May 19-21, 2010
  
                           Call For Papers 
========================================================================

Many problems in AI (in reasoning, planning, learning, perception and 
robotics) require the agent to operate with incomplete or uncertain 
information. The objective of this track is to a present and discusses 
a broad and diverse range of current work on uncertain reasoning, 
including theoretical and applied research based on different
paradigms. 
We hope that the variety and richness of this track will help to
promote 
cross fertilization among the different approaches for uncertain
reasoning, 
and in this way foster the development of new ideas and paradigms.

The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in
FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2010 Special
Track at the 23nd International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research
Society Conference (FLAIRS-23) is the 15th in the series. As the past
tracks,  UR'2010 seeks to bring together researchers working on broad
issues related to reasoning under uncertainty. 

Invited Speaker
---------------
Prof. David Poole will give a keynote speech during the special track. 
Professor Poole is in the Department of Computer Science, Univ. of 
British Columbia, Canada. He is a member of the Laboratory for 
Computational Intelligence and a Fellow of the Association for 
the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence. His main research interests 
are artificial intelligence, intelligent agents, knowledge
representation 
and reasoning under uncertainty. A tentative title of his talk is:
"What should the World-Wide Mind believe? Knowledge and uncertainty at a
global scale".
  
Scope
-----
Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Papers of 
particular interest include, but are not limited to:

    * Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies
    * Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, 
                belief function, vagueness, granularity, rough sets, 
                and probability logics
    * Modeling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate 
          information, such as: 
                Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets 
                of measures, and interval-valued probabilities
    * Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning
    * Graphical models of uncertainty
    * Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
    * Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
    * Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
    * Epistemic logics
    * Argumentation
    * Belief change and Merging
    * Nonmonotonic and conditional Logics
    * Similarity-based reasoning
    * Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and 
                knowledge discovery
    * Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion,
                diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment
    * Practical applications of uncertain reasoning


Paper Submission and Publication
---------------------------------
Submitted papers must be original, and not submitted concurrently to a
journal or another conference. Full papers may be up to 6 pages, and
poster papers up to 2 pages. Papers must be in AAAI format, and
submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system.  Instructions
on the submission procedure will be available at the UR'2010 website:

http://www.irit.fr/~Laurent.Perrussel/ur10/

The proceedings of FLAIRS will be published by the AAAI. An author of
each accepted paper is required to register, attend, and present the
paper at the UR track. 

The International Journal of Approximate Reasoning will publish a
special issue devoted to extended versions of the top papers at the
track.

Important Dates
---------------
Paper submission due:   Nov. 23, 2009
Author Notification:    Jan. 22, 2010
Conference:             May 19-21, 2010
