Participating Areas
The following are the current areas of ETAI activity. Research contributions are
received, discussed, and refereed within these areas. Each active area has a
list of subscribers, who receive information by E-mail, and a number of additional
services such as calendar of events, bibliographies, and others. The website
containing those services as well as the review discussions can be
reached by clicking the area title.
-
Concept Based Knowledge Representation
. This area intends to cover any research in conceptual modeling based
on knowledge representation. This includes modeling based on formalisms
which allow for automated deduction of properties of interest in the
defined models.
-
Decision and Reasoning under Uncertainty
. This area covers researches on reasoning and decision under uncertainty
both on the methodological and on the applicative sides. Significant papers
are invited from the whole spectrum of uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence
researches.
-
Intelligent User Interfaces. The area of Intelligent User Interfaces focuses
on design principles, methodologies and tools that make man-machine
communication easier and more effective.
-
Machine Intelligence Workshops. Selected articles from the classical Machine
Intelligence Workshop series are now published through the ETAI.
-
Planning and Scheduling. Work in the area of AI Planning and Scheduling
ranges from formal and theoretical approaches to very practical and
application-driven contributions and with that traditionally covers a
variety of border regions of related fields.
-
Reasoning about Actions and Change.
Research on Reasoning About Actions and Change investigates formal methods,
usually based on formal logic, for characterizing processes in terms of
discrete-level state descriptions and events, actions, and activities
which are capable of changing the current state.
-
The Semantic Web.
This area is targeted at all research efforts aimed at constructing,
maintaining and using a 'semantic' or 'knowledge' web that will
provide knowledge-based services. It should contain automated reasoners
that support the human user in achieving goals via accessing and
providing information that is represented in machine-understandable
form. The ultimate goal is to create a knowledgeable virtual
environment with numerous specialized reasoning services that are
able support us in many aspects of our daily life.
