               ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE and MATHEMATICS
                              ISAIM 2008
                       http://isaim2008.unl.edu

                          January 2-4, 2008

          PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Monday, October 1, 2007

The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics
(ISAIM) is a biennial meeting that fosters interactions between
mathematics, theoretical computer science, and artificial
intelligence.  This is the tenth Symposium in the series, which is
sponsored by Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence.  We
seek submissions of recent results with a particular emphasis on the
foundations of AI and mathematical methods used in AI.  Papers
describing applications are also encouraged, but the focus should be
on principled lessons learned from the development of the application.
Traditionally, the Symposium attracts participants from a variety of
disciplines, thereby providing a unique forum for scientific exchange.
The three-day Symposium includes invited speakers, presentations of
technical papers, and special topic sessions.


INVITED SPEAKERS:

o  David McAllester, Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, USA
o  Francesca Rossi, Padova University, Italy
o  Naftali Tishby, The Hebrew University, Israel


SPECIAL TOPIC INVITED SESSIONS:

o Logic in Artificial Intelligence
    -Special Session in Honor of the 65th Birthday of Victor Marek
    -Organized by Michael Kaminski and Mirek Truszczynski.

o Computation and Social Choice
    -Organized by Toby Walsh, NICTA and University of New South Wales

Other special sessions may be announced soon.


PAPER SUBMISSION:

Paper submission will be electronic via the submission link on the
Symposium web-site (isaim2008.unl.edu).  Papers must be formatted in
accordance with the guidelines in the "Paper Submission" chapter of
the web site.

The submission deadline is Monday, October 1, 2007 (11:59PM
PDT). Papers will be reviewed by members of the Program Committee.
Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by Wednesday,
October 31, 2007.  Final versions of accepted papers, for inclusion in
the conference electronic proceedings, are due by Wednesday, November
21, 2007.  Note that papers may be submitted to the Symposium even if
submitted to other conferences or journals, because the Symposium web
site is not archival.

Authors of a selected set of papers from the Symposium will be invited
to submit full versions of their papers for inclusion in a special
volume of the Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence,
published by Springer.  Those invited submissions will be subject to
refereeing at the usual standards of the journal, and authors will
receive more details with the acceptance notice.

Any questions regarding paper submission should be sent to the program
co-chairs to the email address <isaim2008 at cse.unl.edu>.
