The 14th European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches
to Reasoning with Uncertainty (ECSQARU 2017) will be held in Lugano
(Switzerland), on July 10-14, 2017, jointly with the 10th
International Symposium on Imprecise Probability: Theories and
Applications (ISIPTA ’17).

Possible topics include, but are not limited to: algorithms for
uncertain inference, argumentation systems, automated planning and
acting, Bayesian networks and causal networks, belief functions,
belief revision and merging, classification and clustering, decision
theory and graphs, default reasoning, description logics with
uncertainty, empirical studies of algorithms, foundations of
reasoning, fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic, game theoretic agents,
implementation and applications of uncertain systems, imprecise
probabilities, inconsistency handling, information fusion, learning
for uncertainty formalisms, logics for reasoning under uncertainty,
Markov decision processes, probabilistic logics, possibility theory
and possibilistic logic, preferences, rough sets, semantic web and
uncertainty, uncertainty in databases, uncertainty & data integration,
uncertainty and data mining, decision making under uncertainty.

We invite submissions for long (up to 10 pages) and short papers (up
to 6 pages).

All accepted papers (long or short) will be published electronically
in the Springer Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence subseries
(LNCS series). Each submission will be reviewed by peers using a
single-blind process. All accepted papers will be presented at the
conference. At least one of the paper’s authors should register and
attend the conference to present the work.

After the conference, a special issue with a selection of the accepted
papers will be published in an expanded version in the International
Journal of Approximate Reasoning.

We also invite applications for the Springer Young Researcher Award.
The prize, granted by Springer, will be awarded to one young
researcher for excellent research in fields related to the ECSQARU
scope. The award is open to Master students, PhD students and young
post-doc researchers who have received their PhD in 2016 (or 2017).
Applicants should have submitted a paper (short or long, not
necessarily as first authors) to ECSQARU 2017. Applications should be
received by the paper submission deadline.

Invited speakers will be: Leila Amgoud, Alessio Benavoli, Jim Berger,
Didier Dubois, and Eyke Hüllermeier.
