International Conference on APplied Artificial Intelligence (ICAPAI 2020)
15 - 17 September 2020, Halden, Norway
Web page: www.icapai.org


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/RealWorld 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

Topics
========
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.


Special Track
==============
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.
