                    2nd Call for Papers:

                Uncertain Reasoning (UR) 2013
                =============================
 
                    Special Track at the
         26th International FLAIRS Conference (FLAIRS-26)
                 St. Pete Beach, Florida, USA
                      May 22-24, 2013

 The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in
 FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR'2013 Special
 Track at the 26th International Florida Artificial Intelligence
 Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-26) is the 18th in the series.
 As the past tracks, UR'2013 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
   - Bayesian networks
   - Graphical models of uncertainty
   - Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision making
   - Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
   - Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
   - Nonmonotonic reasoning
   - Conditional Logics
   - Argumentation
   - Belief change and merging
   - Similarity-based reasoning
   - Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and
     knowledge discovery
   - Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion,
     diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment
   - 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 4 pages. Papers must be in AAAI format, and
 submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system.  Instructions
 on the submission procedure are available at the UR'2013 website:
            http://www.fernuni-hagen.de/wbs/ur13/

 All accepted papers will be published as FLAIRS proceedings by the 
 AAAI.
 We anticipate that the International Journal of Approximate Reasoning
 (IJAR) will publish a special issue devoted to extended versions of the
 top papers at the track.
