** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION **

AI-HEALTH2008  New AI Techniques and Methodologies for Dynamic,
Knowledge-intensive Domains
18th June 2008
Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca
Milano, Italy

=============================================================

In recent years there has been an increasing interest in the application
of Artificial Intelligent techniques to health sciences.
As a consequence, there are many interesting new research trends in the
field of AI, involving bioinformatics, activity recognition, health
monitoring, context-aware systems and more.
All of these domains can be very complex to represent, since they are
mainly related to observing and understanding natural systems, human
behaviours or dynamic environments.
Making intelligent choices in such domains can be very difficult because
effects of actions may not be known a priori (partial knowledge), and
significative features may not always be visible (partial observation).
Thus, Knowledge representation and reasoning in this context remains a
key issue.
This one-day workshop wants to be a discussion forum for researchers in
knowledge representation and reasoning formalisms and technologies for
dynamic, knowledge intensive domains.
This initiative gives an opportunity to compare different AI approaches
and solutions, to study opportunities for synergy and integration, to
formulate future challenges and opportunities and to discuss specific
technical problems.
