Computational Analogy 2017
Workshop at the International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR 2017)
Trondheim, Norway, June 26-28, 2017
Workshop Website : https://iccbr-ca2017.limsi.fr
OBJECTIVES
Computational Analogy and Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) are closely related research areas. Both employ prior cases to reason in complex situations with incomplete information. Analogy research often focuses on modeling human cognitive processes, the structural alignment between a case/source and target, and adaptation/abstraction of the analogical source content. While CBR research also deals with alignment and adaptation, the field tends to focus more on retrieval, case-base maintenance, and pragmatic solutions to real-world problems. However, despite their obvious overlap in research goals and approaches, cross communication and collaboration between these areas has been progressively diminishing. CBR and Analogy researchers stand to benefit greatly from increased exposure to each other’s work and greater cross-pollination of ideas.
Following the successful Analogy workshop at ICCBR-16, the workshop will be held for its second edition on one day during June 26-28, 2017, as part of the ICCBR 2017 workshop series in Trondheim, Norway. The workshop is open to all interested conference participants. The objective of this workshop is to promote such communication by bringing together researchers from the two areas, to foster new collaborative endeavors, to stimulate new ideas and avoid reinventing old ones.

IMPORTANT DATES
Submission deadline : April 24th, 2017
Notification of acceptance : May 8th, 2017
Camera-ready paper : May 29th, 2017
PAPER SUBMISSION
Paper submissions should be formatted using the ICCBR Conference format, but with a maximum of 10 pages in length (including references). Shorter submissions (max 5 pages), such as work in progress or position papers, are also welcome. Authors will be required to submit their papers through the workshop submission website. Papers will be reviewed by qualified reviewers drawn from the workshop’s Program Committee. We also encourage those who do not want to submit a paper to attend, as one of the primary goals of the workshop is to foster greater communication and cross-pollination of ideas amongst Computational Analogy and CBR researchers.
