Preface
The AI 2003 conference was the 16th in the series of artificial intelligence conferences sponsored by the Canadian Society for Computational Studies of Intelli´ gence (CSCSI)/Soci´et´e Canadienne pour l’Etude de l’Intelligence par Ordinateur (SCEIO). The conference showcases the excellent research work done by Canadians and their international colleagues. As in the case of many past Canadian AI conferences, AI 2003 was organized in conjunction with its sister Canadian conferences, Vision Interface (VI) and Graphics Interface (GI), enriching the experience for all participants. The conferences were held on the campus of Dalhousie University, at Canada’s largest Atlantic port city, Halifax. This year, we received a record number of paper submissions. A total of 116 abstracts were received, out of which 106 papers were submitted by the due date
