[DMANET] First CFP: ADT 2017 -- the 5th International Conference on Algorithmic Decision Theory, Luxembourg, 25--27 October 2017

===============================================
Call for Papers: ADT 2017 First Announcement

The International Research Group on Algorithmic Decision Theory
(CNRS/GDRI ALGODEC) in collaboration with the EURO working group on
preference handling and the Computer Science and Communications
Research Unit (CSC) of the University of Luxembourg is proud to
announce

ADT 2017, the 5th International Conference on
Algorithmic Decision Theory
Luxembourg, 25--27 October 2017
http://sma.uni.lu/adt2017

The ADT 2017 conference seeks to bring together researchers and
practitioners coming from diverse areas such as Artificial
Intelligence, Database Systems, Operations Research, Discrete
Mathematics, Theoretical Computer Science, Decision Theory, Game
Theory, Multiagent Systems, Computational Social Choice, Argumentation
Theory, and Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding in order to improve the
theory and practice of modern decision support. Some of the scientific
challenges facing the Algorithmic Decision Theory (ADT) community
include big preference data, combinatorial structures, partial and/or
uncertain information, distributed decision making, and large user
bases. Such challenges occur in real-world decision making in domains
like electronic commerce, recommender systems, argumentation tools,
network optimization (communication, transport, energy), risk
assessment and management, and e-government.

ADT 2017 provides a multi-disciplinary forum for sharing knowledge in
this area with a special focus on algorithmic issues in Decision
Theory. The first four International Conferences on Algorithmic
Decision Theory (ADT 2009 Venice, ADT 2011 Rutgers (DIMACS), ADT 2013
Brussels, ADT 2015 Lexington (Kentucky US)) brought together
researchers and practitioners from diverse areas of computer science,
economics, and operations research from around the globe.
