Call for Papers
---------------------------

Special Issue of Computational Intelligence on Games: Planning and
Learning.
Editors: Susan Epstein (Hunter College-CUNY), Robert Levinson(UC-Santa
Cruz), Barney Pell (Nasa Ames Research Center).

This issue is inspired by the successful AAAI FALL 1993 Symposium of the
same title but is open to all authors and relevant original papers  Papers must not have been published in journals or as book chapters before or being
currently reviewed for another journal. Authors agree to serve as peer reviewers for up to three articles for the issue and to meet the timetable below.

If you intend to submit, and have not yet done so, please send e-mail to [email-masked].

Relevant topics include (but are not limited to):
Assessing and increasing the generality of game-learning systems, computational implementations of mathematical game analysis, counterplanning, evaluation function learning, feature discovery, learning and using abstraction in game-playing, metareasoning, methodologies for evaluating learning and planning, methods amenable to broader AI problems, psychological theories and models of learning and planning in games, reasoning and planning under uncertainty, reasoning under real-time constraints, selective search, training paradigms for game-learning systems, tradeoffs between learning and planning in games, utility issues in speedup learning, interplay between AI and economic game theory in exploiting
compact representations of games for learning and planning.

Research must be mature enough to warrant journal publication. 

Format: 
Papers should be at least 5000 words long and conform to the
formatting standards available anonymous FTP from cs.uregina.ca /pub/ci
