Meeting Description:

2nd Symposium on Problem-solving, Creativity and Spatial Reasoning in
Cognitive Systems

Problem-solving, human creative cognition, spatial cognition and computational
creativity are topics often treated separately, despite their major potential
for synergies. The ProSocrates Symposium aims to investigate these synergies.
The 2nd Edition of the Problem-solving, Creativity and Spatial Reasoning
Symposium will take place on 20-21 July 2017 at the Hanse Wissenschaftskolleg
(@HWK_IAS) in  Delmenhorst, Germany.

#ProSocrates17

2nd Symposium on Problem-solving, Creativity and Spatial Reasoning in
Cognitive Systems
http://creacogcomp.com/prosocrates2017.html

Topics:

ProSocrates welcomes papers on one or more of the general topics of
problem-solving (specially spatial problem solving), human creative cognition,
spatial cognition and computational creativity. Theoretical, computationally
applied and empirical papers will be accepted for review. We especially

Topics are centered around but not limited to:

- Spatial cognition
- Spatial Reasoning
- Analogy
- General and Spatial problem solving
- Natural and artificial Cognitive systems
- Knowledge Representation for problem-solving
- Case-Based Reasoning
- Spatial reasoning and Education
- Systems for enhancing human spatial reasoning and/or creativity
- Creative Cognition
- Computational Creativity
- Concept blending
- Visuospatial creativity
- Insight and re-representation
- Evolutionary approaches, genetic algorithms
- Image Schemas
- Cognitive modeling
- Analogy
- Cognitive Recommender Systems

Submission:

Three types of papers are welcome:

- Full research papers - up to 10 pages in LNCS format + references
- Poster submissions - up to 5 pages in LNCS format.
- Late Breaking papers - up to 6 pages in LNCS format + references

Accepted papers will be published in Symposia proceedings as part of CEUR
Workshop Proceedings.

A Special Issue for best extended papers is currently under negotiation.
