GENERAL INFORMATION

MICAI is organized by Mexican Society for Artificial Intelligence (Sociedad Mexicana de Inteligencia Artificial, SMIA).

Recent MICAI events received over 300-400 submissions on average, from over 40 countries. The proceedings have been published as Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series volumes.

Submissions are invited on significant, original, and previously unpublished research on all aspects of artificial intelligence. MICAI is open to all areas of Artificial Intelligence, either research or applications.

Papers should be submitted online using EasyChair system: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=micai2013. Papers must not exceed 12 pages, in LNAI format (www.springer.com/lncs). Papers must be submitted without authors' names, affiliations and self-references, in the form suitable for double blind reviewing. Submission of the paper assumes that at least one author will register at the conference and present an accepted paper or poster. Full registration fee should be paid for each accepted paper.

Workshops and Tutorials are planned as part of the conference.

The SMIA is pleased to announce the availability of a limited number of Travel Grants for students, who are the principal authors of accepted papers, attending MICAI-2013.

Papers accepted for full (long) oral presentation will be published by Springer in a volume of the series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence. Poster session papers will be published separately by IEEE CPS (anticipated). Special issues of journals are anticipated for best papers: at previous MICAI events, more than half of papers published in LNAI were invited to special issues of journals (including ISI JCR-indexed journals). Best papers awards will be given for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place best papers.
