Our
goals
Static algorithms
cannot capture the full dynamics of human knowledge. Capabilities
for learning, adapting, and even changing the representational
basis must be enabled if computational systems can be said
to be intelligent. In view of these requirements, the goal
of the Knowledge Acquisition in Intelligent Systems (KAIS)
technical committee is to advance the development of intelligent
systems and systems of systems (SoS).
What
we are doing
Organized an annual conference on Information Reuse
and Integration at IRI-2005 in Las Vegas,
NV in August 2005, which included a grant-agency forum.
Organized an annual conference on Information Reuse
and Integration at IRI-2004 in Las Vegas,
NV in November 2004.
Planning 2006 International Conference on Information
Reuse and Integration (IRI) IRI-2006
in Kona, HI in conjunction with the IEEE SMC organizing
committee, which will include a grant-agency forum.
