-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The 31st annual workshop of the Swedish Artificial Intelligence Society 
(SAIS 2019) is held in Umeå, Sweden on June 18 - 19, 2019.


The SAIS workshop has since its first edition been a forum for building 
the Swedish Artificial Intelligent (AI) research community and nurture 
networks across academia and industry. The main purpose of SAIS 2019 is 
to meet across national AI initiatives to further grow the AI network in 
the Nordic countries. We invite AI researchers, as well as scientists 
from related research disciplines and industry practitioners, from 
Sweden and neighboring countries, to join us in Umeå!


SAIS 2019 welcomes both theoretical and applied contributions from all 
areas of AI, including (but not limited to) traditional topics such as 
search, machine learning, planning, knowledge representation, reasoning, 
natural language processing, and multi-agent systems.

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We invite three types of contributions to the SAIS workshop:


* 4 pages extended abstract describing ongoing research: We encourage to 
submit general descriptions of current ongoing projects.

* 2 pages extended abstracts of papers published by AI venues, e.g. AI 
journals and AI conference, within the last 12 months.

* 1-2 pages abstract describing ongoing Ph.D. projects (the first author 
has to be a Ph.D. student). Recommendations for Ph.D. project abstracts:

o The problem statement and research question/s have to be clearly 
introduced and motivated.

o If the Ph.D. student is interested in joining mentor sessions, the 
student has to attach an extra paragraph describing his/her motivation 
for joining mentor sessions.

The program committee will review all the abstracts in order to give 
feedback to the authors. The accepted abstracts will be presented either 
as oral presentations or posters.


The accepted abstracts will be published in the electronic workshop 
proceedings. Copyright stays with the authors and authors of previously 
unpublished abstract accepted by the SAIS workshop are encouraged to 
submit these to other workshops or conferences.


All submissions should be in PDF and must be written in English 
following the Lecture Notes on Artificial Intelligent format by 
Springer. All abstract should be submitted through EasyChair:


https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sais2019


Depending on the interest of the Ph.D. students attending SAIS 2019 to 
join mentor sessions further information will be sent out to the 
registered Ph.D. students. The mentor sessions aim to organize small 
group meetings between Ph.D. students and senior researchers.

A special issue in an international journal can be planed after the 
workshop depending on the quality and the number of the original works.
