Welcome to ISMIS 2014
21st International Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems

ISMIS is an established and prestigious conference for exchanging the latest research results in building intelligent systems. Held twice every three years, the conference provides a medium for exchanging scientific research and technological achievements accomplished by the international community.
In June 2014, ISMIS will be held for the first time in Denmark, Roskilde.

Conference Scope

The scope of ISMIS is intended to represent a wide range of topics on applying Artificial Intelligence techniques to areas as diverse as decision support, automated deduction, reasoning, knowledge based systems, machine learning, computer vision, robotics, planning, databases, information retrieval, etc. The focus is on research in intelligent systems. The conference addresses issues involving solutions to problems that are complex to be solved through conventional approaches and that require the simulation of intelligent thought processes, heuristics and applications of knowledge. The integration of these multiple approaches in solving complex problems is of particular importance. ISMIS provides a forum and a means for exchanging information for those interested purely in theory, those interested primarily in implementation, and those interested in specific research and industrial applications.

Topics of Interest

ISMIS'14 is intended to attract individuals who are actively engaged both in theoretical and practical aspects of intelligent systems. The goal is to provide a platform for a useful exchange between theoreticians and practitioners, and to foster the cross-fertilization of ideas in the following areas:
Active Media Human-Computer Interaction
Autonomic and Evolutionary Computation
Digital Libraries
Intelligent Agent Technology
Intelligent Information Retrieval
Intelligent Information Systems
Intelligent Language Processing
Knowledge Representation and Integration
Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
Knowledge Visualization
Logic for Artificial Intelligence
Music Information Retrieval
Social Networks
Soft Computing
Text Mining
Web Intelligence
Web Mining
Web Services
In addition, we solicit papers dealing with Applications of Intelligent Systems in complex/novel domains, e.g. human genome, global change, manufacturing, health care, etc.
