Workshops in AI sponsored by AAAI.

AAAI will sponsor workshops in particular areas of AI.  So far more
than 15 have been sponsored.  The format is not prescribed except that
this program does not sponsor large conferences.

Here are some policies.

1. Up to $10K can be approved per workshop.

2. No honoraria for speakers or overhead to institutions will be paid.

3. Any workshop emphasizing commercial technology must be neutral
among the suppliers of relevant technology, e.g. people from the
different suppliers should be contacted and should have equal opportunity
to submit papers.

4. Proposals should be sent to
John McCarthy.

Electronic mail to JMC@SU-AI.STANFORD.EDU is preferred, but U.S.
mail to

Professor John McCarthy
Computer Science Department
Stanford, CA 94305

will also work.  If you get impatient you can phone (415)723-4430.

5. Proposals should contain approximations to the following:
	a. budget.
	b. subject, detailed enough to evaluate relevance to AI
and possible overlap with other workshop proposals.
	c. conditions of participation including how papers
and attendees are to be selected.
	d. when and where if this is known.
	e. program committee if this is known

6. Correspondence should be copied to AAAI-OFFICE@SUMEX.STANFORD.EDU
or to

Ms. Claudia Mazzetti, Executive Director
AAAI
445 Burgess St.
Menlo Park, CA 94025

You can phone her at (415)328-3123.

7. After McCarthy has approved the proposal further arrangements should
be made with Mazzetti at the AAAI office.  This includes transfer of
money and possible help with publicity and workshop preprints and
publication.

8. After the workshop is finished there should be a report suitable
for publication in AI Magazine.

9. There should also be a financial report to the AAAI office, and
unexpended money is to be returned to AAAI.

10. AAAI assumes no financial responsibility for any debts or other
financial obligations that may be incurred by workshop organizers nor any
liabilities for their actions.

Dear Claudia Mazzetti,

 I sent you a net message about two weeks ago, enquiring about
the conditions for AAAI workshop funding, and notifying you of my
intention to submit an application for support for our forthcoming
Manchester workshop on "Computing Japanese". In case that message has
disappeared in transit, I'm appending it to this, and also including a
the full application. (I'd be grateful if you could acknowledge
receipt) --

Date: Tue, 10 Mar 87 16:45:14 +0000
From: mary

Dear Claudia Mazzetti,

 We are holding a small invited workshop on 'Computing Japanese'
here in Manchester, in the Centre for Computational Linguistics,
UMIST, next September. Some funding has been promised, but not enough
to cover our intended programme (L.4,600 of an estimated total of
L.15,000). I have been encouraged by Don Walker to apply to you (as
well as to ACL) for financial support: the point of this message is to
ask for confirmation, a) that such an application would be in order, b)
that you are the appropriate addressee, and c) that netmail is an
acceptable medium. I would be grateful also for some indication of the
approximate sum it would be reasonable to ask you for.

 Yours with thanks,

    Mary McGee Wood
    (arpa: mmw%uk.ac.umist@cs.ucl.ac.uk)


==========================

Submission  to  the  American  Association  for  for   Artificial
Intelligence  for funding for a workshop on "Computing Japanese",
to  be  held  at  the  Centre  for   Computational   Linguistics,
University  of  Manchester Institute of Science and Technology in
September 1987 in association with the UMIST  Alvey/ICL  Japanese
translation project



     Research  on  computational  treatments  of   the   Japanese
language  is  now  widespread  both  geographically  and  in  its
practical and intellectual  direction.  The  research  effort  in
Japan  is  being  carried  out  on  a  major  scale, while active
interest in the US and the UK is growing rapidly.  Work is  under
way  on parsing,  lexicography, speech recognition and synthesis,
discourse, and translation; the linguistic  theories  which  have
informed  computational  grammars  of Japanese include (at least)
Categorial  Grammar,  Description   Theory,  Generalized   Phrase
Structure  Grammar, Lexical-Functional Grammar, Lexicase Grammar,
and  Systemic  Grammar.  Our  Alvey-  funded  English-to-Japanese
machine  translation  project  in  the Centre  for  Computational
Linguistics, UMIST should be seen  as  a  contribution  to  these
wider overall  national  and  international enterprises.


     To bring together some  of  the  many  researchers  in  this
field, we are seeking sponsorship for a small invited workshop on
"Computing Japanese" which will be held here in Manchester   next
September.  Such  a workshop would provide a valuable opportunity
for  an  exchange  of   ideas   within   this   specialized   but
international  field.  Research  in the U.S. and Britain can only
benefit from contact with distinguished colleagues from overseas;
the  Japanese  research  effort is notable for both its scale and
quality, and undeservedly unfamiliar in the West.


     A provisional schedule of topics and  possible  participants
is appended.  On a rough initial costing, we will need a total of
c L15,000. Of this, we have been  awarded  L4,000  by  the  Great
Britain  - Sasakawa Foundation, earmarked for travel expenses for
Japanese participants, and L600 by the  Department  of  Languages
and  Linguistics,  UMIST.  International Computers Limited  (ICL)
have agreed in principle to provide some  L2-3,000.  Applications
have  been made to the Association for Computational Linguistics,
the Society for the Study  of  Artificial  Intelligence  and  the
Simulation  of  Behaviour,  and  the  Economic and Social Science
Research Council, but all  these  bodies  have  strictly  limited
funds available.


     Thus we would like to ask for the sum  of  $5,000  from  the
American  Association for Artificial Intelligence to support this
workshop. This contribution would very significantly enhance  the
quality  of  the occasion, both in the number of participants who
could be accommodated and  the  scale  of  our  organization  and
hospitality. We would of course be happy to offer the Association
copies of the proceedings, and/ or to invite a representative  to
participate, if this were to be welcome.


     The Alvey/ICL workshop on "Linguistic  Theory  and  Computer
Applications"  which  was  held  at  UMIST  in September 1985 was
agreed by all participants to have been outstandingly successful,
and  has  led  to a number of significant continuing contacts for
the Centre and within the wider  international  natural  language
processing   community.   Full   transcripts   of  that  meeting,
originally produced as a CCL/UMIST report and an Alvey  document,
are  now being commercially published by Academic Press, who have
expressed a similar interest in the present  proposal;   although
we would be equally happy with other forms of publication.


     An invited workshop on "Computing Japanese"  would  make  an
inherently worthwhile contribution to research and development in
an important and expanding international field, and would  foster
valuable  links  among  researchers  in advanced natural language
processing in Britain, the United  States,  and  Japan.  We  hope
therefore   that  this  request  for  funding  will  be  received
sympathetically.

Subject: AIM Workshop

I am organizing an Artificial Intelligence in Medicine Workshop for 1987
along the lines of earlier AIM workshops, but in a slightly more abbreviated
format, only one day.  I would like to know if the date we have selected
would pose any problem in regard to AAAI-87.  We chose this date in order
to facilitate attendance at both the AIM Workshop and AAAI-87, which is
why the organizing falls on me.

In addition, we would like to know if AAAI can provide support for this
workshop.  Our specific needs are to be able to fund some graduate student
travel, provide a hosted lunch, and also to do a paper mailing to the AAAI-M
mailing list to supplement the on-line mailing.  I expect the amount would be
similar to past workshops.

Following is a copy of the latest version of the AIM Workshop announcement
and the tentative program.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN MEDICINE - AIM WORKSHOP 1987

        July 12, 1987
        University of Washington
        Seattle, Washington

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

        The Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIM) Workshop has been an
annual tradition for nearly a decade.  The community of researchers active in
applying artificial intelligence techniques in the medical domain has each
year met to hear reports on the current status of ongoing projects, to see and
critique demonstrations of running systems, and to discuss issues of
importance to their research.  This group, though relatively small, has had a
substantial positive effect on the broader field of artificial intelligence,
particularly in the areas of expert systems and knowledge representation.

        The small size of the group (fewer than 100 attendees) has made it
possible for this workshop to fulfill an important community-building
function, as opportunities are provided for graduate students and other young
researchers to meet and talk informally with senior figures in the field.

        Earlier AIM Workshops have been held in several centers of research
activity, including Stanford, Rutgers, MIT, the University of Pittsburgh, Ohio
State University, and the National Library of Medicine. In 1987, the Workshop
will be hosted by the University of Washington, just prior to the National
Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-87) in Seattle, Washington.  It is
hoped that this will give Workshop participants ongoing opportunities for
contact and facilitate participation in AAAI-87.

        The 1987 AIM Workshop program will be only a single day, and will
emphasize small informal meetings and discussion.  A short plenary session in
the morning will be followed by a series of topical discussion groups.  We
hope this format will give ample opportunity for new voices to share their
ideas and work, as well as for more experienced investigators to offer
guidance and commentary.

        Participation is by invitation, and will be limited to about 90
participants.  This year, to help us identify those who would most benefit
from as well as contribute to the workshop, we are asking that those
interested in attending submit an extended abstract, no more than two pages
(1000 words), describing their work, plans or interest in artificial
intelligence in medicine, to the Workshop Chair, Ira Kalet, Radiation Oncology
Department, M/S RC-08, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195.
The deadline for abstracts is March 15, 1987.  Invitations will be issued
by April 15, 1987.

        We are also looking for topical group discussion leaders.  If you
would like to lead a discussion group, please contact the Workshop Chair.

        Some support to assist in defraying expenses for student attendees
may be available.  Contact the Workshop Chairman for further information.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
At this point I see a program roughly as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

AIM WORKSHOP 1987 (80-90 invited participants)

8:30 AM to 10:30 AM - Plenary Session

        four 30 minute (20 + questions) talks, the best of the abstracts

10:30 to 10:45 AM - coffee break

10:45 AM to 12:15 PM - Small Group Discussions I (6 parallel groups, 15 each)

12:15 to 1:30 PM - Banquet Lunch

1:30 to 3:00 PM - Small Groups II

3:00 to 3:15 PM - Coffee Break II

3:15 to 4:45 PM - Small Groups III

PARTICIPATION:

        Participation will be by invitation only, and all invitations
will be either:

a. on review of an extended abstract (no more than 2 pages) - this should
describe work completed or in progress, or in the planning stages to allow for
some new people who may only just be getting started.  Acceptance of an
abstract will mean an invitation to participate, but only the 4 best abstracts
will be presented.  Abstracts will also be used to make assignments to topical
discussion groups.

b. to someone we know who can serve as a discussion leader or facilitator.

c. to someone we know who is a significant resource person whose participation
would be valuable.

(for b. and c., invitees will not need to submit abstracts.)

-------

  A few weeks ago I had sent a request for support of the Theoretical
Issues in Conceptual Information Processing Workshop being planned in
U of Maryland for early June.  Since a number of planning activities
will need to be initiated, it will be helpful to hear about AAAI support
that was requested in my ealrlier message.  If the message is lost,
pl. let me know, and I'll remail my copy of it.
