Publisher's Synopsis
The AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence has promoted theoretical and applied AI research as well as intellectual interchange among researchers and practitioners. As can be seen in these proceedings, AI's scope and influence continue to grow. This year, we received 1,406 submissions, the largest number in the conference history. The technical papers presented at the twenty-seventh meeting of this conference feature substantial, original research and practices. The main technical program features papers grouped into the following categories: AI and the web, applications, cognitive modeling, cognitive systems, computational sustainability and ai, game playing and interactive entertainment, game theory and economic paradigms, heuristic search and optimization, human-computation and crowd sourcing, humans and AI, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine learning applications, multiagent systems, NLP and knowledge representation, NLP and machine learning, NLPp and text mining, novel machine learning algorithms, planning and scheduling, reasoning under uncertainty, robotics, search and constraint satisfaction, and vision, along with student abstracts and the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium. Also included in this proceedings are the papers from the AAAI Symposium on Educational Advances in AI (EAAI, chaired by Laura E. Brown), which focuses on teaching AI, and the Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI, cochaired by David Stracuzzi and David Gunning), which emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives.
