                       Call for Papers:

                   Uncertain Reasoning 2012
                   ========================

                  Special Track at FLAIRS-25
                  Marco Island, Florida, USA
                      May 23-25, 2012

The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in
FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2012 Special
Track at the 25th International Florida Artificial Intelligence
Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-25) is the 17th in the series.
As the past tracks, UR'2012 seeks to bring together researchers
working on broad issues related to reasoning under uncertainty.

Scopes
------
Papers on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Papers of
particular interest include, but are not limited to:
    - Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies
    - Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief
      function, vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and
      probability logics
    - Modeling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate
      information, such as: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings,
      convex sets of measures, and interval-valued probabilities
    - Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning
    - Graphical models of uncertainty
    - Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
    - Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
    - Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
    - Belief change and merging
    - Non-monotonic and conditional logics
    - Similarity-based reasoning
    - Practical applications of uncertain reasoning

Paper Submission and Publication
---------------------------------
Submitted papers must be original, and not submitted concurrently to a
journal or another conference. Full papers may be up to 6 pages, and
poster papers up to 2 pages. Papers must be in AAAI format, and
submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system. Instructions
on the submission procedure will be available at the UR'2012 website:
              http://www.cs.uregina.ca/~butz/ur12/

The proceedings of FLAIRS will be published by the AAAI. An author of
each accepted paper is required to register, attend, and present the
paper at the UR track.

We anticipate that the International Journal of Approximate Reasoning
will publish a special issue devoted to extended versions of the top
papers at the track.

Important Dates

     Author Notification:     Jan. 20, 2012
     Camera Ready Copy Due:   Feb. 20, 2012
