*** Special Issue on Uncertain Reasoning in AI ***
on occasion of the Uncertain Reasoning Track at FLAIRS 2023 and 2024.

######################################################################
Uncertainty
is a central phenomenon that touches all subfields of artificial
intelligence. As many have observed, dealing with uncertainty remains
one of the central challenges and limits the capabilities of AI
approaches. For instance, many problems in AI (in reasoning, planning,
learning, perception, and robotics) require the agent to operate with
incomplete or uncertain information.
This special issue of the
Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence (AMAI) focuses on all
aspects of uncertainty that concern reasoning and is devoted to the
Uncertain Reasoning Special Track in 2023 and in 2024, which was located
at the respective International Florida Artificial Intelligence
Research Society Conference (FLAIRS). The Special Track on Uncertain
Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in FLAIRS conferences, running
annually since 1996. The objective of this track is to provide a
platform to present and discuss a broad and diverse range of current
work on uncertain reasoning, including theoretical and applied research
based on different paradigms. This special issue follows this tradition
and the aims of the UR track.
### Topics ###
This
call is open to articles on all aspects of uncertain reasoning. Articles
of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
* Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies
* Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief function,
vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and probability logics
* Modeling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate information,
such as: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets of
measures, and interval-valued probabilities
* Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning
* Probabilistic graphical models of uncertainty such as: Bayesian
networks, Markov random field, probabilistic circuits
* Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision-making
* Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process
* Temporal reasoning and uncertainty
* Non-monotonic reasoning
* Conditional Logics
* Argumentation theory
* Belief change and merging
* Similarity-based reasoning
* Ontologies and description logics
* Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and knowledge
discovery
* Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion,
diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment
* Uncertain reasoning in data management
* Practical applications of uncertain reasoning
* Learning probabilistic models
* Applications in computer vision and animation
