<font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">The biennial European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI) is Europe's premier archival venue for presenting scientific results in AI. Organised by the </span></font><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><b>European
Coordinating Committee for AI (ECCAI)</b></span></font><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">, the ECAI conference provides an opportunity for researchers to present and hear about the very best research in contemporary AI. As well as a full programme
of technical papers, ECAI'14 will include the Prestigious Applications of Intelligent Systems conference (PAIS), the Starting AI Researcher Symposium (STAIRS), the International Web Rule Symposium (RuleML) and an extensive programme of workshops, tutorials,
and invited speakers. (Separate calls are issued for PAIS, STAIRS, tutorials, and workshops.) </span></font></div>
<div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">ECAI'14 will be held in the beautiful and historic <b>city of Prague</b>, the capital of the Czech Republic. With excellent opportunities for sightseeing and gastronomy, Prague promises to be a wonderful
venue for a memorable conference.<br>
<br>

<br>
High-quality original submissions are welcome from all areas of AI; the following list of topics is indicative only.<br>
<br>
- Agent-based and Multi-agent Systems<br>
- Constraints, Satisfiability, and Search<br>
- Knowledge Representation, Reasoning, and Logic<br>
- Machine Learning and Data Mining<br>
- Natural Language Processing<br>
