****************************************************************************


The Program Committee of the 8th Brazilian Conference on Intelligent
System (BRACIS) invites submissions of original research papers for the
conference, to be held in Salvador, BA, Brazil, from October 15th to 18th,
2019.

BRACIS is one of the most important events in Brazil for researchers
in the field of Artificial and Computational Intelligence. The conference
aims to promote theory and applications of Artificial and Computational
Intelligence. BRACIS also aims for the promotion of international level
research by exchanging scientific ideas among researchers, practitioners,
scientists and engineers.

The yearly event series started in 2012 from the combination of the Brazilian
Symposium on Artificial Intelligence – SBIA (21 editions) and the Brazilian
Symposium on Neural Networks – SBRN (12 editions).

In 2019, BRACIS will be held in conjunction with:
- 16th National Meeting for Artificial and Computational Intelligence
   (XIV Encontro Nacional de Inteligência Artificial e Computacional - ENIAC)
- 12th Brazilian Symposium in Information and Human Language Technology (STIL)



IMPORTANT DATES

Paper submission - May 26th, 2019 ****** EXTENDED DEADLINE ******
