Preface
This volume contains the papers presented at AI 2006, the 19th conference of the Canadian Society for the Computational Study of Intelligence (CSCSI). AI 2006 has attracted a record number of 220 paper submissions. Out of these, 47 high-quality papers were accepted by the Program Committee for publication in this volume. In addition, we have invited three distinguished researchers to give talks about their current research interests: Geoffrey Hinton from University of Toronto, Fred Popowich from Simon Fraser University, and Pascal Van Hentenryck from Brown University. The organization of AI 2006 has benefited from the collaboration of many individuals. Foremost, we express our appreciation to the Program Committee members and the additional reviewers who provided thorough and timely reviews. We thank Dirk Peters for his technical assistance with Paperdyne: the conference management system used by AI 2006 to manage the paper submissions and reviews. Finally, we thank the Organizing Committee (Laurence Capus, Mamadou Kon´e, Fran¸cois Laviolette, Nicole Tourigny, and Hospitalit´e Qu´ebec) and the members of the CSCSI Executive Committee for all their efforts in making AI 2006 a successful conference.
