Call for papers:

​Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) is an Artificial Intelligence problem solving and analysis methodology that retrieves and adapts previous experiences to fit few contexts. We are inviting papers for the FLAIRS 2019 conference 19th Special Track on Case Based Reasoning. This track is intended to gather AI researchers and practitioners with an interest in CBR and related fields to present and discuss developments in CBR theory and application as well as possibilities for collaboration, integration, and sharing of ideas, experience, and best practices between the CBR community and other AI research communities. We are actively seeking submissions that create connections to other research communities whose interests overlap with those of the CBR community, such as the Computational Creativity, Goal Reasoning, Cognitive Systems, and Game AI communities.

Papers and contributions are encouraged for any work relating to Case-Based Reasoning. Topics of interest may include (but are in no way limited to):

1. Foundations of CBR
2. Methods for CBR (e.g., representation, indexing, retrieval, adaptation)
3. Evaluation Methods for CBR Systems and Integrations
4. Practical Applications of CBR
5. Textual CBR
6. CBR and Creativity
7. CBR and Design
8. Distributed CBR
9. Case Base Maintenance
10. CBR in the Health Sciences
11. CBR Integrations
12. Case-Based Planning
13. CBR & Games
14. CBR and Recommender Systems
15. CBR Tools and Methodologies
16. Case-based Agents
17. Reasoning about Time in CBR
18. Process-Oriented CBR
19. CBR and Knowledge Discovery
20. Computational Analogy

Note: We invite original papers (i.e. work not previously submitted, in submission, or to be submitted to another conference during the reviewing process).

Submission Guidelines

Interested authors should format their papers according to AAAI formatting guidelines. The papers should be original work (i.e., not submitted, in submission, or submitted to another conference while in review). Papers should not exceed 6 pages (4 pages for a poster) and are due by November 19, 2018. For FLAIRS-32, the 2019 conference, the reviewing is a double blind process. Fake author names and affiliations must be used on submitted papers to provide double blind reviewing. Papers must be submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system, which can be accessed through the main conference web site (http://www.flairs-32.info/).

• Note: do not use a fake name for your EasyChair login - your EasyChair account information is hidden from reviewers. Authors should indicate the Case-Based Reasoning special track for submissions.
• The proceedings of FLAIRS will bepublished by the AAAI. Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign a form transferring copyright of their contribution to AAAI. FLAIRS requires that there be at least one full author registration per paper.

Please, check the FLAIRS-32 website for further information.
