                          Second Call for Papers

                                 AIME'01

    Eighth European Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

                   1- 4 July 2001, Cascais, Portugal

    The European Society for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME),
    established in 1986, aims at fostering fundamental and applied research
    in the application of Artificial Intelligence techniques to medical care
    and medical research, providing a forum for reporting significant
    results achieved at biennial conferences. This conference will be the
    next of a series of international conferences, held biennially over the
    last 14 years
     
    SCOPE

    Original contributions are sought regarding the development of theory,
    techniques, and applications of AI in Medicine, including the evaluation
    of health care programmes. Contributions to theory may include
    presentation or analysis of the properties of novel AI methodologies
    potentially useful to solve medical problems. Papers on techniques
    should describe the development or the extension of AI methods and their
    implementation, and discuss the assumptions and limitations of the
    proposed methods. Application papers should describe the implementation
    of AI systems to solve significant medical problems, and should present
    sufficient information to allow evaluation of the practical benefits of
    the system.

    The scope includes the following areas:
    · Knowledge acquisition and its representation, refinement, validation
    and maintenance
    · Machine learning and data mining
    · Decision support systems, including knowledge based systems, neural
    networks, belief networks, and statistical models
    · Uncertain, temporal, and case based reasoning
    · Planning and scheduling
    · Natural language generation and understanding
    · Computer vision, image and signal interpretation
    · Intelligent agents and information retrieval
    · Telemedicine and knowledge management in intranets and the Internet,
    including careflow systems
    · Cognitive modeling

    PAPER SUBMISSION

    Papers should not exceed 5000 words, or a maximum of 10 pages, and
    should
    be formatted according to Springer’s LNCS format. See details in
