 ** Please forward to anyone who might be interested **
=========================================================
2nd Call for Papers:
    *Workshop on Uncertainty, Knowledge Discovery, and Similarity
    in Case Based Reasoning*
In conjunction with the 8th International Conference on Case Based Reasoning
Workshop Website:  http://www.iis.uni-hildesheim.de/ukds09/
Conference:             http://www.iccbr.org/iccbr09/
Paper submission deadline: *April 23, 2009*
=========================================================

This is a short reminder that the Call for Papers is still open until next
/Thursday, April 23rd 2009/.
 
The objective of the workshop is to provide an opportunity for
exchanging ideas related to the application of various techniques of
uncertainty management, knowledge discovery, and similarity in CBR. The
workshop aims at providing a forum for the discussion of recent advances
in this research field and to offer an opportunity for researchers and
practitioners to identify new promising research directions.
 
The organizers welcome contributions on the use of principled methods
for reasoning under uncertainty, knowledge discovery, and similarity,
such as:
   * Probabilistic reasoning and Bayesian methods,
   * Fuzzy sets, possibility theory, evidence theory,
   * Rough sets and information theory,
   * Neural networks and evolutionary computation,
   * Machine learning and data mining algorithms
 
in case-based reasoning, including but not limited to:
   * Case and knowledge representation, acquisition, and modeling,
   * Maintenance and management of CBR systems,
   * Case indexing and retrieval,
   * Similarity assessment and adaptation
   * Flexible similarity measures,
   * Similarity measures for complex, imprecise and heterogeneous case
     domains,
   * Maintenance of corporate memories,
   * Instance-based and case-based learning,
   * Confidence
   * CBR applications.

* Deadlines and Dates*
- April 23, 2009:   Deadline for workshop paper submission
- May 11, 2009:   Notification of acceptance for workshop papers
- May 29, 2009:   Final camera ready copies due
