Micai 2009 Advances In Artificial Intelligence

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2009, held in Guanajuato, Mexico, in November 2009. The 63 revised full papers presented together with one invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 215 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on logic and reasoning, ontologies, knowledge management and knowledge-based systems, uncertainty and probabilistic reasoning, natural language processing, data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition, computer vision and image processing, robotics, planning and scheduling, fuzzy logic, neural networks, intelligent tutoring systems, bioinformatics and medical applications, hybrid intelligent systems and evolutionary algorithms.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2005, held in Monterrey, Mexico, in November 2005. The 120 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 423 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on knowledge representation and management, logic and constraint programming, uncertainty reasoning, multiagent systems and distributed AI, computer vision and pattern recognition, machine learning and data mining, evolutionary computation and genetic algorithms, neural networks, natural language processing, intelligent interfaces and speech processing, bioinformatics and medical applications, robotics, modeling and intelligent control, and intelligent tutoring systems.

The Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (MICAI) is a biennial conference established to promote research in artificial intelligence (AI), and cooperation among Mexican researchers and their peers worldwide. MICAI is organized by the Mexican Society for Artificial Intelligence (SMIA), in colla- ration with the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) and the Mexican Society for Computer Science (SMCC). After two successful conferences, we are pleased to present the 3rd Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2004, which took place on April 26-30, 2004, in Mexico City, Mexico. This volume contains the papers included in the conference main program, which was complemented by tutorials and workshops, published in supplementary proceedings. The proceedings of past MICAI conferences, 2000 and 2002, were also published in Springer-Verlag's Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) series, volumes 1793 and 2313. The number of submissions to MICAI 2004 was significantly higher than those of previous conferences -- 254 papers from 19 different countries were submitted for consideration to MICAI 2004. The evaluation of this unexpectedly large number of papers was a challenge, both in terms of the quality of the papers and of the review workload of each PC member. After a thorough reviewing process, MICAI's Program Committee and Programs Chairs accepted 97 hi- quality papers. So the acceptance rate was 38.2%. CyberChair, a free Web-based paper submission and reviewing system, was used as an electronic support for the reviewing process. This book contains revised versions of the 94 papers presented at the conference. The volume is structured into 13 thematic fields according to the topics addressed by the papers, which are representative of the main current area of interest within the AI community.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2007, held in Aguascalientes, Mexico, in November 2007. The 116 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in sections on topics that include computational intelligence, neural networks, knowledge representation and reasoning, agents and multiagent systems.
