Meeting Description:

The 33rd Canadian Conference on Artificial Intelligence (Canadian AI 2020)
will take place in Ottawa, Ontario, 13 May to 15 May, 2020. The event is
collocated with the Computer and Robot Vision (CRV) conference. These events
(AI·CRV 2020) will bring together hundreds of leaders in research, industry,
and government, as well as Canada's most accomplished students. They showcase
Canada's ingenuity, innovation and leadership in intelligent systems and
advanced information and communications technology. 


Call for Papers:

We invite papers that present original work in all areas of Artificial
Intelligence, either theoretical or applied. Canadian AI 2020 welcomes
submissions on topics including (but not limited to) search, planning,
knowledge representation, reasoning, natural language processing, robotics and
perception, multi-agent systems, statistical learning, and deep learning. We
expressly encourage work that cuts across technical areas or applies AI
techniques in the context of important domains such as e-commerce, games,
healthcare, sustainability, and transportation.

We also welcome the submission of position papers, which present
evidence-based arguments for a particular point of view without necessarily
presenting a new system. There will be an option during the submission process
to indicate that a paper is a position paper.

As in previous years, accepted papers will be published by Springer in the
Lecture Notes in AI series.

Important date:

Submission deadline: January 17, 2020
Author notification: February 21, 2020
Final papers due: March 7, 2020

Submissions details:

We invite submissions of both long and short papers. Long papers must be no
longer than 12 pages, including references, formatted using the Springer
LNCS/LNAI style. We provide a sample here:
 
https://www.caiac.ca/sites/default/files/basic_attachments/LNCS-sample.zip

We encourage the use of the most up-to-date LaTeX2e style file available from
Springer. Short papers must be no longer than 6 pages, including references,
in the LNAI style.

Papers submitted to the conference must not have already been published, or
accepted for publication, or be under review by a journal or another
conference. Submissions will go through a double-blind review process by
Program Committee members to assess originality, significance, technical
merit, and clarity of presentation. As such, submissions must be anonymized,
and papers that fail to do so will be rejected without review. A “Best Paper
Award” and a “Best Student Paper Award” will be given at the conference
respectively to the authors of each best paper, as judged by the Best Paper
Award Selection Committee.

Submissions will be via EasyChair -- More information will be updated at the
following link:

Program co-chairs:

Cyril Goutte, National Research Council Canada (NRC)
Xiaodan Zhu, Queens University

Publication:

The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes
in Artificial Intelligence (LNCS/LNAI). A paper will be accepted either as a
long or as a short paper. Long papers will be allocated 12 pages while short
papers will be allocated 6 pages in the proceedings. Authors of accepted
papers will be allocated time for an oral presentation at the conference and
will have the opportunity to present their work in a poster session. At least
one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference to
present the work. The authors must agree to this requirement prior to
submitting their paper for review.
