!!! EXTENDED EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE: _*JUNE 22*_ !!!
Call for Participation
Since 1985, The Conference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence
(UAI) has been the primary international forum for presenting new
results on the use of principled methods for reasoning under uncertainty
within intelligent systems. The scope of UAI is wide, including, but not
limited to, representation, automated reasoning, learning, decision
making and knowledge acquisition under uncertainty. We encourage
submissions of papers to UAI-2006 that report on advances in these core
areas, as well as those dealing with insights derived from the
construction and use of applications involving uncertain reasoning.
In addition to the presentation of technical papers
(http://www.ics.uci.edu/~csp/uai2006/papers.html), we have four
distinguished invited speakers
(http://www.ics.uci.edu/~csp/uai2006/speakers.html):
Sander Greenland (University of California, Los Angeles),
Stuart M. Shieber (Harvard University),
Matthew Stephens (University of Washington) and
Pascal Van Hentenryck (Brown University)
and a full-day course on Advanced Topics in Uncertainty in Artificial
Intelligence consisting of tutorials
(http://www.ics.uci.edu/~csp/uai2006/tutorials.html) by:
Adnan Darwiche (University of California, Los Angeles),
David Poole (University of British Columbia),
Peter Spirtes (Carnegie Mellon University) and
Jin Tian (Iowa State University).
This year will also see the introduction of the first software
competition for evaluating various probabilistic inference algorithms.
The competition will take place in June, prior to the conference, with
the results presented during a special session at the
conference(http://ssli.ee.washington.edu/~bilmes/uai06InferenceEvaluation/).
