CALL FOR PAPERS
Special Track on Approximate Reasoning in Human Decision Making
to take place during
For the past nineteen years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing has been a primary gathering forum for
- applied computer scientists,
- computer engineers,
- software engineers,
- and application developers
from around the world. SAC 2005 is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing, and is hosted by New Mexico Institute of
Mining and Technology, Socorro, NM, USA.
Special Track on
Approximate Reasoning in Human Decision Making
The track focuses on current research in how to model human decision making in computers. The aim of the track is to bring together researchers in different fields who
tackle this difficult problem. We are looking for work that considers the role of approximate reasoning techniques in applications.
Areas of interest:
We are interested in the following topic areas (although this list should not be treated as exclusive):
- Fuzzy Sets and Fuzzy Logic
- Probabilistic Reasoning
- Rough Sets
- Neuro-Fuzzy Approaches to Approximate Reasoning
- Other Models of Approximate Reasoning
It should be stressed that this track appears in the context of the conference devoted to applied computing. Thus, submissions to this track should address
actual and potential applications.
Position papers will also be considered to foster debate.

Submission Guidelines
Submissions fall into the following categories:
* Original and unpublished research work
* Report of innovative computing applications in the arts,
sciences, engineering, and business areas
* Report of successful technology transfer to new problem domains
* Report of industrial experience and demos of new innovative systems
* Workshops and Panels
Peer groups with expertise in the track focus area will blindly
review submissions to that track. Accepted papers will be
published in the annual conference proceedings. Submission
guidelines will be posted on SAC 2005 Website.
Papers should be submitted with no more that 4000 words and accepted papers must fit
within five (5) two column pages, with the option(at additional expense) to add three (3) more pages.
Paper submissions should be sent to one of the Track Chairs.
