Both employ prior cases to reason in complex situations with incomplete information. Analogy research often focuses on modeling human cognitive processes, the structural alignment between a case/source and target, and adaptation/abstraction of the analogical source content. While CBR research also deals with alignment and adaptation, the field tends to focus more on retrieval, case-base maintenance, and pragmatic solutions to real-world problems. However, despite their obvious overlap in research goals and approaches, cross communication and collaboration between these areas has been progressively diminishing. CBR and Analogy researchers stand to benefit greatly from increased exposure to each other’s work and greater cross-pollination of ideas. The objective of this workshop is to promote such communication by bringing together researchers from the two areas, to foster new collaborative endeavors, to stimulate new ideas and avoid reinventing old ones.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>== Topics of

workshop will be held as part of the ICCBR 2017 conference in Trondheim, Norway (June 26-28th, 2017). The workshop is open to all interested conference participants. We welcome longer submissions (up to 10 pages), as well as shorter submissions for work in progress or position papers. Papers will be reviewed by qualified reviewers drawn from the workshop’s Program Committee, and the Program Committee will select amongst the submitted papers for oral presentation. We also encourage those who do not want to submit a paper to attend, as one of the primary goals of the workshop is to foster greater communication and cross-pollination of ideas amongst Computational Analogy and CBR researchers.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>== Submissions ==<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Paper submissions should be formatted using the ICCBR Conference format, but with a maximum of 10 pages in length (including references).
