About AIS

The 3rd International Conference on Autonomous and Intelligent Systems (AIS 2012) is held in conjunction with the 9th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition in the city of Aveiro, Portugal. It aims at providing a platform for researchers, engineers, academics and industrial professionals to present their recent research work and to explore future trends in various areas of autonomous and intelligent systems. The conference will address recent advances in theory, methodologies and applications in the field.

The scientific program will include keynote and invited speakers and fully refereed contributions that will be published as a special volume in Springer Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence Series. It will be also indexed in major indexing sites.
