Special Track on Machine Learning
Wyndham Casa Marina Resort

May 21-23, 2001
Call for Papers
Machine Learning is an area within the core of AI which also provides methodology
and technology for many AI related areas such as Case-Based Reasoning,
Data Mining and Robotics. To avoid overlapping with other special tracks
the FLAIRS-2001 special track on Machine Learning will focus on the methodological
aspects of ML. The topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Agent learning
-
Applications of ML
-
Automated knowledge acquisition
-
Conceptual clustering
-
Function approximation
-
Instance-Based learning
-
Learning for planning
-
Mixed-initiative learning
-
Multistrategy learning
-
Relational learning and inductive logic programming
-
Statistical approaches to ML
High quality papers in any other area of Machine Learning are also welcomed.
