* Aims and goals

The aim of the MDAI conference series is to provide a forum for
researchers to discuss models for decision and information fusion
(aggregation operators) and their applications to AI.

In MDAI 2016, we encourage the submission of papers on decision making,
information fusion, social networks, data mining, and related topics.

Applications to data science and privacy technologies as real world
problems are welcome.

MDAI 2016 is the 13th MDAI conference. Previous conferences were
celebrated in Barcelona (2004), Tsukuba (2005), Tarragona (2006),
Kitakyushu (2007), Sabadell (2008), Awaji Island (2009), PerpinyÃ
(2010), Changsha (2011), Girona (2012), Barcelona (2013), Tokyo (2014),
Skövde (2015).

MDAI is rated as a CORE B conference by the Computing Research and
Education Association of Australasia - CORE.

  A) Methods and Tools:
    - Information fusion
    - Aggregation operators
    - Utility and decision theory
    - Model and operator selection
    - Learning methods for parameter determination
    - Machine learning and statistical learning
    - Soft computing
    - Optimization methods in AI and decision modeling
    - Non-additive measures and integrals
    - Clustering
  B) Applications:
    - Data privacy
    - Multiagent systems
    - Social networks
    - Data mining
    - Bibliometry
    - Autonomous robots
    - Entertainment computing
    - Evaluation methods
    - Bioinformatics
    - Information access


* Submission and Publication

Original technical contributions are sought. Contributions will be
selected on
the basis of their quality. Papers should not exceed 12 pages in total
(using
LNCS/LNAI style). Proceedings with accepted papers will be published in
the LNAI/LNCS series (Springer-Verlag) and distributed at the
conference. Besides, papers, that according to the evaluation of the
referees, are not suitable for the LNAI but that have some merits will
be published in a USB proceedings (with ISBN) and scheduled in the MDAI
program.
