July 24 - 27, 2005, Aberdeen, UK
Deadline: February 9, 2005

Co-located with IJCAI-2005
****************************************
The European Society for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME), was
established in 1986 with two main goals: 1) to foster fundamental and applied
research in the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to
medical care and medical research, and 2) to provide a forum for reporting
significant results achieved at biennial conferences. Additionally, AIME
assists medical industrialists to identify new AI techniques with high
potential for integration into new products. A major activity of this society
has been a series of international conferences, from Marseille (FR) in 1987 to
Protaras, Cypru in 2003, held biennially over the last 18 years.
The AIME'05 conference will be a unique opportunity to present and improve the
international state of the art of AI in Medicine from both a research and an
applications perspective. For this purpose, AIME'05 will include invited
lectures, contributed full and short papers, system demonstrations, tutorials,
and workshops.
Scope
=====
Original contributions are sought regarding the development of theory,
techniques, and applications of AI in Medicine, including the evaluation of
health care programmes. Contributions to theory may include presentation or
analysis of the properties of novel AI methodologies potentially useful to
solve medical problems. Papers on techniques should describe the development or
the extension of AI methods and their implementation, and discuss the
assumptions and limitations of the proposed methods. Application papers should
describe the implementation of AI systems to solve significant medical
problems, and should present sufficient information to allow evaluation of the
practical benefits of the system.
The scope of the conference includes the following areas:
* Knowledge Acquisition, Representation, Refinement, Validation and Maintenance
* Machine Learning, Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
* Decision Support Systems
* Neural Networks and Belief Networks
* Reasoning under Uncertainty
* Temporal Representation and Reasoning
* Case-Based Reasoning
* Planning and Scheduling
* Protocols and Guidelines
* Information Retrieval
* Natural Language Generation and Understanding
* Computer Vision and Imaging
* Signal Interpretation
* Intelligent Agents
* Telemedicine and Cooperative Systems
* Cognitive Modelling
Submissions Overview
====================
There are two categories of paper submission
1. Full research papers (up to 10 pages)
2. Short papers (up to 5 pages) that are
a. short reasearch paper
b. demonstration of implemented systems
c. late-breaking results (work-in-progress)
Papers should be formatted according to Springer's LNCS format (see
www.springeronline.com/lncs or www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Authors
are strongly encouraged to submit the papers electronically, following the
instructions provided in the conference web page (see below).
All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings which will be
published as part of Springer's "Lecture Notes in AI" series. In addition, the
authors of the best submissions will be invited to expand and refine their
papers for possible publication in the journal Artificial Intelligence in
Medicine (Elsevier).
As in previous AIME conferences, proposals for the organisation of tutorials
and satellite workshops are sought regarding any of the above topic areas.
