The Pacific Rim International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (PRICAI)
is the leading conference in the Pacific Rim region for presentation of
research in Artificial Intelligence, including its applications to problems
of social and economic importance. The objectives of PRICAI are:
¤ýto provide a forum for the introduction and discussion of new research
results, concepts, & technologies;
¤ýto provide practising engineers exposure to and an evaluation of evolving
research, tools, and practices;
¤ýto provide the research community exposure to the problems of practical
applications of AI; and
¤ýto encourage the exchange of AI technologies and experience within Pacific
Rim countries.
PRICAI 2010 attempts to meet the needs of a large and diverse constituency,
which includes researchers, practitioners, educators, and users. Topics of
PRICAI 2010 include:
¤ýAI foundations
