[Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation]


International Conference on APplied Artificial Intelligence (ICAPAI 2020) < www.icapai.org >

Halden, Norway. September 15-17, 2020

(Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE CIS Norway Section)


*ICAPAI 2020 CFP*

The International Conference on Applied Artificial Intelligence (ICAPAI 2020) will provide an excellent international forum for sharing knowledge and results in theory, methodology and applications of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Industrial/Real-World settings. ICAPAI 2020 welcomes papers in all sub-areas of artificial intelligence and machine learning. The conference aims to provide a platform to researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to meet and share information about cutting-edge developments in the field.


Authors are welcome to contribute to the conference by submitting articles that illustrate on-going research results, projects, surveying works and industrial experiences that describe significant advances in all of the related areas. Papers submitted to ICAPAI 2020 will undergo a double-blind review process. All papers that are accepted and presented in ICAPAI 2020 will be published in the ICAPAI 2020 Conference Proceedings and included in IEEE Xplore®. For papers that are accepted but not presented will not be included in IEEE Xplore®, following IEEE No-Show Policy.


There will be a special track on on-going research/applications of AI and ML. There will be a special track on on-going research/applications of AI and ML. The goal of this track is to report on-going developments/applications, as well as the associated research and challenges in applying AI and ML to real-world and industrial problems. ICAPAI 2020 seeks well-motivated and specific problems for which AI and ML technology have already been deployed (maybe partial). Authors can report the partial results with the motivation and idea behind such application. Based on the quality of the submitted paper, it will be accepted as a Full/Short paper. There will be (oral) presentation session for all of the accepted papers as well as with posters.


Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* development and deployment of AI applications to important domains (i.e., healthcare, sustainability, transportation, finance, cyber-physical systems, manufacturing, business, government applications);
* big data, data mining and machine learning tools;
* AI and ML-based optimization methods for industrial/practical applications;
* deep learning, fuzzy and neural systems;
* AI/ML techniques in robotics;
* AI/ML methods for computer vision, image processing, pattern recognition;
* natural language processing, speech understanding;
* evolutionary/bio-inspired algorithms;
* explainable AI;
* hybrid intelligent systems;
* bioinformatics;
* recent trends of AI in programming languages;
* applied AI for cyber security;
* heuristic and AI planning strategies and tools;
* probabilistic reasoning, case-based reasoning, constraint programming;
* standards, ethics, legal implications and challenges of AI implications in government and public organizations.

*Submission*
Each paper should have 6 pages, including figures, tables, and references. The paper should be double-column, single-spaced IEEE style. Each paper should have an Abstract (maximum 200 words and within 6 page-limit) mentioning a brief summary of the work, which will be included in the Conference Proceedings if the paper is accepted. All papers must be submitted through the ICAPAI 2020 online submission system. For Special Track papers, please select the respective special track title under the list of research topics in the submission system. Papers submitted to ICAPAI 2020 will undergo a double-blind review process. For this, the authors should not include their names, affiliations, postal addresses, and email addresses in the initial manuscript. Submitted papers must present original unpublished research that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal.

*Important Dates:*
Submission deadline: April 19, 2020
Author notification: June 21, 2020
Camera-ready due: July 12, 2020
