AISC is a forum for the exchange of ideas and the presentation of new tools
and solutions at the
intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation. It aims
to foster contacts
and collaborations among researchers from different fields related to AI
and Symbolic Computation. The conference is concerned with all aspects of
research, including theory, implementations, and applications.
AISC 2018 takes a broad view of AI that includes non-traditional areas such
as machine/deep learning and their interactions with logic and symbolic
reasoning. It will also have a special track on Collective Intelligence.
Conferences in this series are usually held every two years. The previous
five took place in Sevilla
(Spain), Paris (France), Birmingham (United Kingdom), Beijing (China), and
Linz (Austria). AISC 2018 will take place in Suzhou, China.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Original research papers in English, including experimental work and work
in progress are welcome. The following types of submissions are invited.
Regular papers: maximum 15 pages.
Short papers: maximum 5 pages that address the following aspects
explicitly.
Problem: what is the problem/question/objective?
Motivation: why are you working on the problem and what is its importance?
State of the art: what has been done already on the problem?
Contribution: what is the main original contribution?
Main idea: what is the main idea underlying the contribution?
Additional information:
The submissions should indicate whether they are submitted as short or
regular papers as part of their titles (see the AISC webpage for
instructions). Aside from this they should follow the standard Springer
LNCS Proceedings format.
Accepted papers must be presented at the conference.
If you have any problems with the submission of your paper, or questions
concerning
AISC 2018 or EasyChair, please contact aisc2018@easychair.org.
PUBLICATION
The proceedings of AISC 2018 will be published by Springer in its LNAI
series and will be available by the time of the conference.
As for previous editions of AISC, authors of selected conference papers may
be invited to submit extended versions for review and publication in the
special issue of a journal.
