The LNAI series reports state-of-the-art results in artificial intelligence research, development, and education, at a high level and in both printed and electronic form. Enjoying tight cooperation with the R&D community, with numerous individuals, as well as with prestigious organizations and societies, LNAI has grown into the most comprehensive artificial intelligence research forum available.
The scope of LNAI spans the whole range of artificial intelligence and intelligent information processing including interdisciplinary topics in a variety of application fields. The type of material published traditionally includes
proceedings (published in time for the respective conference)
post-proceedings (consisting of thoroughly revised final full papers)
research monographs (which may be based on PhD work)
More recently, several color-cover sublines have been added featuring, beyond a collection of papers, various added-value components; these sublines include
tutorials (textbook-like monographs or collections of lectures given at advanced courses)
state-of-the-art surveys (offering complete and mediated coverage of a topic)
hot topics (introducing emergent topics to the broader community)
