INTRODUCTION

We invite you to participate in the 21st International Conference of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (CCIA 2018) that will take place on 8-10th October 2018 in Hotel Marian Plage on the beautiful Bay of Roses, at Alt Empordà, Catalonia (Spain), https://www.timeout.cat/girona/ca/noticies/la-badia-de-roses-catalogada-com-una-de-les-mes-boniques-del-mon-041818 [www.timeout.cat].


The main goal of this international conference is to foster discussion around the last advances in Artificial Intelligence. We encourage you to contribute with finished works as well as preliminary works with promising original and innovative ideas.


CCIA is the usual meeting point of the Catalan AI scientific community, this is why the conference official languages are Catalan, Spanish, French, Italian and English. However, English must be used to be published in the conference proceedings.


*NEW* The deadline for submissions have been extended to May 14th, 2018.


*NEW*
Visit the conference website ccia2018.upc.edu and have a look at:
-- the high quality keynote speakers invited for the conference.
-- social programme: the gala dinner takes place at Castell de Peralada. This CCIA edition is also hosting the first commemorative activities of the 25th anniversary of the foundation of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (ACIA), which will start in a specific act at the conference and will continue all along the 2018-2019 academic course. ACIA is a member society of the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI).

Extended versions of the conference best papers will be invited to be submitted to the following special issues:

 

  1. SI on “Logic-based applications in AI” in the "Logic Journal of the IGPL“, Oxford University Press https://academic.oup.com/jigpal (indexed in JCR: Q3 - Logic, Q3 - Mathematics, Q4 - Mathematics Applied). Logic Journal of the IGPLpublishes papers in all areas of pure and applied logic, including pure logical systems, proof theory, model theory, recursion theory, type theory, nonclassical logics, nonmonotonic logic, numerical and uncertainty reasoning, logic and AI, foundations of logic programming, logic and computation, logic and language, and logic engineering.
  2. *NEW* VSI on “Pattern Recognition and Cognitive Assistants (PRCA)”, at Pattern Recognition Letters, Elsevier https://www.journals.elsevier.com/pattern-recognition-letters (indexed in JCR: Q2 – Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence). PRLetters includes all the current fields of interest represented by the Technical Committees of the International Association of Pattern Recognition, and other developing themes involving learning and recognition.

 

STUDENTS GRANTS

After receiving the notification of acceptance, students who will attend the conference can apply for grants funded by Associació Catalana d'Intel·ligència Artificial (ACIA, http://www.acia.cat/).
