2ND CALL FOR PAPERS CALL FOR PAPERS +----------------------------------------------------------+ | Second Workshop on: | | Bridging the Gap between Human and Automated Reasoning | +----------------------------------------------------------+ an IJCAI-16 workshop (supported by IFIP TC12) New York, USA, July 9th, 2016 http://ratiolog.uni-koblenz.de/bridging2016 Human reasoning or the psychology of deduction is well researched in cognitive psychology and in cognitive science. There are a lot of findings which are based on experimental data about reasoning tasks, among others models for the selection task or the suppression task discussed by Byrne and others. This research is supported also by brain researchers, who aim at localizing reasoning processes within the brain. Automated deduction, on the other hand, is mainly focusing on the automated proof search in logical calculi. And indeed there is tremendous success during the last decades. Recently a coupling of the areas of cognitive science and automated reasoning is addressed in several approaches. For example there is increasing interest in modeling human rea- soning within automated reasoning systems including modeling with answer set programming, deontic logic or abductive logic programming. There are also various approaches within AI research. This workshop is a follow-up event of the successful Bridg- ing workshop (http://ratiolog.uni-koblenz.de/bridging.html) which was located at CADE-25. Like its preceding event, it is intended to get an overview of existing approaches and make a step towards a cooperation between computational logic and cognitive science. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: o limits and differences between automated and human reason- ing o psychology of deduction o common sense reasoning o logics modeling human cognition o modeling human reasoning using automated reasoning systems o non-monotonic, defeasible, and classical reasoning and possible explanations for human reasoning o application fields of automated reasoning in the interac- tion with human reasoners The workshop will be held in conjunction with IJCAI-16 and is supported by IFIP TC12. IMPORTANT DATES Full Paper submission deadline: April 18th, 2016 Notification: May 16th, 2016 Final submission: May 23rd, 2016 Workshop: July 9th, 2016 SUBMISSION AND CONTRIBUTION FORMAT Papers, including the description of work in progress are welcome and should be formatted according to the Springer LNCS guidelines. The length should not exceed 15 pages. All papers must be sub- mitted in PDF. Formatting instructions and the LNCS style files can be obtained at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.htm. The EasyChair submission site is available at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bridging2016 PROCEEDINGS Proceedings of the workshop will be published as CEUR workshop proceedings.
