                             AIME'01

Eighth European Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

      FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS

                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

All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings which 
will
be published as part of Springer's "Lecture Notes in AI" series. In
addition, the authors of the best submissions will be invited to 
expand
and refine their papers for possible publication in the journal
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (Elsevier).

As in previous editions, proposals for the organisation of tutorials 
and
satelite workshops are sought regarding any of the above topic areas.
