13th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation
Suzhou, China, September 16-19, 2018 http://aisc2018.cc4cm.org
NEW
Extended Short/Regular paper submission deadline: May 20, 2018
Invited Tutorial by James Davenport
Additional Special Track on Intelligent Documents
Invited Speakers for the Special Tracks
OVERVIEW
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 special tracks on
Collective Intelligence and Intelligent Documents.
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 addressing the following aspects explicitly.
Problem: what is the problem/question/objective?
Motivation: why are we 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
All submissions will be formally reviewed by PC members and external referees. Decision on the SHORT paper
will be made on a rolling basis, normally about 10-15 days after submission. At least one author of each
accepted submission must register at AISC 2018. All accepted SHORT or REGULAR papers will appear in a conference
proceedings volume published by Springer in LNCS. In addition, REGULAR papers have the opportunity to be considered
for post-conference special issues of some journal.
