APPROACH OF THE SYMPOSIUM: The International Symposium on Artificial
Intelligence and Mathematics is the sixth of a biennial series. The
objective of the symposium is to foster interactions between
mathematics, theoretical CS, and artificial intelligence.
Traditionally, the Symposium attracts around 100 participants from a
variety of disciplines, thereby providing a unique forum for active
scientific exchange. The series was started by Martin Golumbic. The
meeting includes paper presentation, invited speakers, and special
topic sessions. Topic sessions in the past have covered computational
learning theory, data mining, knowledge representation, nonmonotonic
reasoning, category theory, and computational complexity issues in AI.
The editorial board of the Annals of Mathematics and Artificial
Intelligence serves as the permanent Advisory Committee for the
series.

SUBMISSIONS: Authors must e-mail a short abstract (up to 200 words) in
plain text format to amai@informatik.uni-freiburg.de by 23 SEPTEMBER
1999, and either e-mail postscript files or TeX/LaTeX source files
(including all necessary macros) of their extended abstracts (up to 10
double-spaced pages) to amai@informatik.uni-freiburg.de, or send five
copies to either
