A series of workshops dedicated to specific topics<br>enhances the program. AIIA 2020 welcomes submissions covering all areas of AI,<br>including (but not limited to) machine learning, search, planning, knowledge<br>representation, reasoning, constraint satisfaction, natural language processing,<br>robotics and perception, and multiagent systems. We encourage all types of<br>high-quality contributions including theoretical, engineering and applied<br>papers. We also encourage contributions on AI techniques in the context of novel<br>application domains, such as security, sustainability, health care,<br>transportation, and commerce.<br><br>Besides regular papers presenting results that have not been published in<br>previous publications, we also welcome short discussion papers (maximum eight<br>pages) containing descriptions of results recently published or accepted for the<br>presentation in international conferences or position papers on potentially<br>controversial topics in AI. Discussion papers are introduced as an opportunity<br>for the authors to present their recent results to the AI community and to<br>stimulate debate among attendees of AIIA 2020. Discussion papers containing<br>descriptions of recently published results must be more broadly accessible than<br>regular papers and focus on the explanation of the contribution and the<br>discussion of key findings and their impact. Discussion papers addressing a<br>position and/or a debate over a topic must provide a solid argumentative<br>structure.<br><br>At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and attend<br>the conference to present the work.<br><br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><b>Proceedings of Regular Papers</b><br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>The accepted regular papers will be included in the proceedings of the<br>conference, and will be published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in<br>Artificial Intelligence series.
