First International Symposium on
Applied Artificial Intelligence (ISAAI'19)

20th – 21st November, 2019, Munich, Germany


*******************************************************************

Recent advances in artificial intelligence have paved the way for exciting applications, which are now playing important roles in everyday life ranging from language translation and image processing to recommender systems and autonomous driving. Most applications are based on machine learning, which achieved great successes due to increasingly available computational resources and data. Applying artificial intelligence to diverse areas is appealing due to its self-organizing and self-learning nature, which enables generic ways of solving problems with minimal effort on specifications. The current trend of applied artificial intelligence offers numerous opportunities to contribute within areas of research, theory, technology, and application.

ISAAI’19 will be held in conjunction with DIGICON (www.digitaleweltmagazin.de/digicon) in Munich, Germany, on 20th – 21st November, 2019.

The aim of ISAAI'19 is to present applications of artificial intelligence especially on the following topics related to industry 4.0, finance and banking, life sciences, telecommunication, robotics, and other fields of applications:

AI integration in practice:
- analysis of application areas and data sources
- experience and technical reports on use cases and implementations
- human-in-the-loop and education on AI
AI goals, benefits and challenges:
- understanding history: from data mining to reasoning
- anticipating the future: predictive maintenance from machines to humans
- handling uncertainty and open systems
- rigorous engineering of AI systems
AI algorithms and techniques:
- cognitive technologies, autonomous techniques and robotics
- natural language processing, deep learning and machine learning
- search algorithms and optimization

ISAAI’19 is organized to connect people from academia and industry to discuss about research, theory, technology, and applications and exchange ideas to move efficiently forward in engineering and development in the exciting area of applied artificial intelligence.
