Preface

This volume contains the papers presented at the 23rd Canadian Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AI 2010). The conference was held in Ottawa, Ontario, from May 31 to June 2, 2010, and was collocated with the 36th Graphics Interface Conference (GI 2010), and the 7th Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV 2010). The Program Committee received 90 submissions for the main conference, AI 2010, from across Canada and around the world. Each submission was reviewed by up to four reviewers. For the final conference program and for inclusion in these proceedings, 22 regular papers, with allocation of 12 pages each, were selected. Additionally, 26 short papers, with allocation of 4 pages each, were accepted. The papers from the Graduate Student Symposium are also included in the proceedings: six oral (four pages) and six poster (two pages) presentation papers. The conference program featured three keynote presentations by Dekang Lin (Google Inc.), Guy Lapalme (Universit´e de Montr´eal), and Evangelos Milios (Dalhousie University). The one-page abstracts of their talks are also included in the proceedings. Two pre-conference workshops, each with their own proceedings, were held on May 30
