*****************Sorry for Cross Postings********** First IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence for Industries September 26-28, 2018 The Hills Hotel Laguna Hills, California http://www.ai4i.org Artificial Intelligence (AI) is concerned with computing technologies that allow machines to see, hear, talk, think, learn, and solve problems. On one hand, it allows business decisions to be driven by real-time models that enable unprecedented levels of accuracy and efficiency. On the other hand, general and domain-specific problem solving can be integrated with semantic technologies. In addition, business-business, business-customer, and customer-customer may be interconnected in a revolutionary way to support new business models with elevated customer experiences. The first International Conference on Artificial Intelligence for Industries (ai4i 2018), technically sponsored by IEEE, is an international forum focusing on incorporating artificial intelligence into business products and services that may be brought to the market in the near future. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: TOPICS OF INTEREST * Semantic and cognitive aspects in different industries * Innovative operations using artificial intelligence * Immersive environments for e-commerce * Multimodal interaction * Human/agent interaction * Business knowledge representation and domain-specific problem solving * Machine and deep learning * Behavior and activity generation * Data generation and validation * Dialogue modeling and generation * Data fusion and representation * System components of intelligent platforms for industries * New business opportunities SUBMISSIONS Authors are invited to submit a 4-page (regular), 2-page (short), and 2-page (abstract) manuscript in double-column IEEE format following the guidelines available on the ai4i2018 web page. The conference proceedings will be submitted for inclusion to the IEEE Computer Society Press. Distinguished quality papers presented at the conference will be selected for publication in internationally renowned journals. DEADLINES Workshop proposals deadline: May 14, 2018 (Regular, Short, Abstract) Paper submission deadline: June 17, 2018 CONTACT ai4i@uci.edu -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
