Scandinavian Conference on Artificial Intelligence

The Nordic countries are traditionally strong in the application of new computer technology. This work represents the state of the art in some of the artificial intelligence areas currently subject to active R&D. International researchers present 24 papers in the following areas: automated reasoning; qualitative reasoning; machine learning; neural networks; and knowledge-based systems. Both basic and applied AI research are represented.
