Workshop Topics & Audience
******************************

The targeted audience for the workshop are researchers associated with the 
fields working in the development of computational models for creativity, 
concept formation, concept discovery, idea generation, and their overall 
relation and role to general intelligence. Furthermore, researchers coming 
from application areas, like computer-aided innovation (CAI) are welcome 
to submit papers for this workshop.

We invite papers that make a scientific contribution to the fields of 
computational creativity, idea generation and/or artificial general 
intelligence, with possible topics ranging from theoretical studies of 
human creativity, inventive capacities and intelligence (that in some way 
propose a computational model for the respective capability), through more 
practical contributions reporting on creative, inventive or generally 
intelligent computer systems (we particularly welcome implementations 
offering general or at least multiple sorts of results) and studies of 
systems and software supporting and/or guiding humans in the creative or 
inventive act, to application-based reports from fields like design, 
architecture or arts. Submissions connecting to several of the 
aforementioned topics are highly encouraged and welcome.

Due to the open nature of the targeted topics, we hope for contributions 
from a broad variety of subdisciplines within AI. Relevant keywords 
include but are not limited to following high-level areas:

- Computational Creativity & Creativity-Support Tools
- Analogical Reasoning
- Artificial General Intelligence
- Automated Story Generation
- Computer-Aided & Automated Mathematics
- Computer-Aided Innovation
- Computational Models for Conceptual Blending
- Automated Poetry Generation
- Automated Music Generation/Automated Composition
- Automated Art Generation
- Creativity in Problem Solving

*******************
Call for Papers
*******************

Anybody with an interest in the questions raised above is invited to 
submit a research or position paper as basis for discussions during the 
workshop.

Submissions should be sent to Tarek R. Besold ( c3gi@cogsci.uos.de ).

Accepted papers will be published online in the ''Publication Series of 
the Institute of Cognitive Science`` (PICS, ISSN 1610-5389), a scientific 
series from the Institute of Cognitive Science, University of Osnabrueck, 
unless the authors instruct us otherwise.

Authors are invited to submit an expanded full paper version of their 
workshop submission to a post-workshop review process, leading to a 
reviewed book on future directions for creativity, idea generation, and 
general intelligence.
