    The Thirty-Fifth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence was held virtually from February 2–9, 2021. The conference program cochairs were Kevin Leyton-Brown (University of British Columbia, Canada)and Mausam (Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India.

    The surge in public interest in AI technologies, which we have witnessed over the past few years, continued to accelerate in 2020–2021, with the societal and economic impact of AI becoming a central point of public and government discussion worldwide. AAAI-21 again saw submissions and attendance numbers that were records in the history of the AAAI series of conferences and continued its tradition of attracting top-quality papers from all areas of AI. We were excited to see increases in submissions across almost all areas.

    The AAAI-21 program consisted of a core technical program of original research presentations, including a special track on AI for social impact. It additionally featured a broad range of tutorials, workshops, invited talks, panels, student abstracts, demonstrations, and presentations by senior members. Included in this year's proceedings for the first time are papers from the newly founded AAAI Undergraduate Consortium. The conference also continued its tradition of colocating with the long-running Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence conference (cochaired by Neil Yorke-Smith, TU Delft, Netherlands, and Meinolf Sellmann, General Electric, USA). The IAAI papers are included in this proceedings. Also included are the papers from the Symposium on Educational Advances in Artificial Intelligence (cochaired by Lisa Torre, St. Lawrence University, USA and Michael Guerzhoy, Princeton University, USA).

    The Thirty-Third AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence was held at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Honolulu Hawaii USA from January 27-February 1, 2019. The conference program chairs were Pascal Van Hentenryck (Georgia Institute of Technology, USA) and Zhi-Hua Zhou (Nanjing University, China).

    The surge in public interest in AI technologies, that we have witnessed over the past few years, continued to accelerate in 2018-2019, with the societal and economic impact of AI becoming a point of public and government discussion worldwide. AAAI-19 saw a record number of submissions and attendance numbers in the history of AAAI series of conferences. AAAI-19 continued its tradition of attracting top-quality papers from all areas of AI. Moreover, in 2019, we were excited to see increases in submissions across almost all areas and especially in reasoning under uncertainty, applications, humans and AI, as well as in the big three: machine learning, computer vision and natural language processing.

    The AAAI-19 proceedings consists of 1147 original research publications, selected by a rigorous double-blind review process from a pool of 7095 original full paper submissions satisfying the submission guidelines — an all-time record for AAAI. Due to the number of submissions and some exogenous limitations, the overall acceptance rate was only 16.2 percent. Technical sessions comprised 13-minute oral presentations and 2-minute spotlights; all selected papers were given a slot for poster presentation. The posters were presented during dedicated evening sessions. For the first time, the assignment of presentation format was based on presentation materials submitted by authors, as well as by considering the perceived degree of interest and topical balance: It should not be interpreted as implying a quality rating of the papers.

    The proceedings also include papers from the Senior Member Track, cochaired by David Aha and Judy Goldsmith; the Doctoral Consortium Abstracts program, cochaired by Daniele Magazzeni and Laura Hiatt; the Student Abstracts program, chaired by Nir Lipovetzky and Yang Yu; and the Technical Demonstrations program, chaired by Monica Anderson.

    AAAI-19 continued its tradition of colocating with the long-running Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI), which emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives. The IAAI-19 chair was Karen Myers (SRI International, USA).

    Again included in this proceedings are the papers of the eighth Symposium on Educational Advances in Artificial Intelligence. EAAI-18 seeks to advance the AAAI goal of improving the teaching and training of AI practitioners. This year, the symposium was cochaired by Michael Wollowski (Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, USA) and Nate Derbinsky (Northeastern University, USA).

    The Thirty-Second AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence was held in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA in February, 2018. The surge in public interest in AI technologies, that we’ve seen over the past few years, continued in 2017-2018 with stories of AI R&D initiatives filling the newswires, and with the societal and economic impact of AI a point of public and government discussion worldwide. AAAI-18 saw a similar surge in interest, with submissions and attendance numbers breaking the records set in 2017. AAAI-18 continued its tradition of attracting top-quality papers from the breadth of AI. In 2018, we were excited to see increases in submissions across all areas and especially in computer vision and natural language processing, mirroring the worldwide increase in R&D activities related to machine learning and deep learning.

    The AAAI-18 program consisted of a core technical program of original research presentations. The program chairs were Sheila McIlraith (University of Toronto, Canada) and Kilian Weinberger (Cornell University, USA). This year AAAI-18 featured the first Oxford-style debate, addressing the controversial statement “Advances in Machine Learning have displaced the need for logic in AI.” This somewhat lively debate featured Thomas Dietterich and Bart Selman arguing in favor, and Gary Marcus and Francesca Rossi arguing in opposition. Kevin Leyton-Brown served as moderator with wit and good humor. AAAI-18 also highlighted the emerging topic of human-AI collaboration with a dedicated sequence of technical sessions bookended by 30 minute invited talks. This initiative was cochaired by Ece Kamar and Julie Shah.

    The AAAI-18 proceedings includes 938 original research publications, selected by rigorous double-blind review from a pool of 3,800 well-formed original submissions — an all-time record for AAAI. The final program reflected an overall acceptance rate of 24.7 percent.

    The conference additionally featured a broad range of tutorials, workshops, invited talks and panels, student abstracts, What’s Hot talks from specialized AI conferences, a debate, and presentations by senior members. The program was rounded out by technical demonstrations, exhibits, the AI job fair, the student outreach program, and a game night. and the EAAI symposium.

    AAAI-18 continued its tradition of colocating with the long-running Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI), which emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives. The IAAI-18 chair was G. Michael Youngblood (PARC, a Xerox Company, USA). The conference was cochaired by Karen Myers (SRI International, USA).

    Again included in this proceedings are the papers of the eighth Symposium on Educational Advances in Artificial Intelligence.

    The Thirty-First Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-17) was held at the Hilton San Francisco Union Square in San Francisco, California, USA from February 4–9, 2017. The proceedings volumes were published by AAAI Press.

    Over the last few years we have seen a resurgence of interest in AI technologies from industry as well as an increase in interest in AI research from undergraduate and graduate students and faculty from around the world. As specialized conferences in machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, thrive and grow, it is especially pleasing to note that AAAI, a venue that attracts papers from across the breadth of AI, is also thriving and growing. We believe there is tremendous value to bringing together the diverse communities with shared long-term goals, facilitating collaboration and transfer of ideas, as well as welcoming strong papers that cross subarea boundaries and may thus fall through the cracks. We trust AAAI will continue to provide such a venue

    The AAAI-17 program featured a comprehensive slate of tutorials, workshops, the satellite IAAI conference and the EAAI symposium, demos, videos, exhibits, invited talks and panels, student abstracts, and special presentations by senior members and representatives from affiliated communities. These activities were organized around a core of technical sessions comprising presentations of original research contributions. The conference cochairs were Satinder Singh (University of Michigan, USA) and Shaul Markovitch (Technion, Israel).

    The proceedings consists primarily of papers that describe original research contributions vetted by rigorous review. A total of 2,571 well-formed papers were submitted to the technical program — an all-time record for AAAI. Of these, 2,432 were directed by authors to the main track, and the remainder to one of three special tracks: Cognitive Systems, Computational Sustainability, and Integrated AI Capabilities.

    Also included in this proceedings are the papers of the Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI), which emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives. The IAAI-17 chair was James Crawford (Orbital Insight, USA). The conference was cochaired by G. Michael Youngblood (PARC, a Xerox Company, USA).

    The Symposium on Educational Advances in Artificial Intelligence (EAAI-17) seeks to advance the AAAI goal of improving the teaching and training of AI practitioners. This year, the symposium was cochaired by Eric Eaton (University of Pennsylvania, USA) and Sven Koenig (University of Southern California, USA).

This year, the main technical and topical tracks of AAAI-15 received 1,991 submissions, the largest number in the history of the conference and about 40 percent more than the main technical track of AAAI-14 (that held the record previously), demonstrating that the scope and influence of AI continue to grow. The technical papers presented at the twenty-ninth meeting of this conference feature substantial, original research and practices. The 2015 conference program cochairs were Blai Bonet (Universidad Simón Bolívar, Venezuela) and Sven Koenig (University of Southern California, USA).

    The main technical program features papers grouped into the following categories: AI and the web, applications, cognitive modeling, cognitive systems, computational sustainability and AI, game playing and interactive entertainment, game theory and economic paradigms, heuristic search and optimization, human-computation and crowd sourcing, humans and AI, integrated systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine learning applications, multiagent systems, NLP and knowledge representation, NLP and machine learning, NLP and text mining, novel machine learning algorithms, planning and scheduling, reasoning under uncertainty, robotics, search and constraint satisfaction, and vision, along with student abstracts and the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium, the demonstration programs, and the what’s hot track.

    Also included in this proceedings are the papers of the Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI), which emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives. The IAAI-15 chair was David Gunning (PARC, USA). The conference was cochaired by Peter Z. Yeh (Nuance Communications, USA).

    The conferences are sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.

    The Twenty-Ninth Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-15) — the inaugural winter AAAI conference —  was held at the Hyatt Regency Austin in Austin, Texas, USA from January 25-30, 2015. The proceedings volumes were published by AAAI Press.

    The AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence has promoted theoretical and applied AI research as well as intellectual interchange among researchers and practitioners for more than three decades. The Innovative Applications of Artificial Intelligence Conference (IAAI), which has been included in the AAAI proceedings for more than two decades, emphasizes the relevance of AI in our everyday lives.

    IAAI-15 presents papers in three tracks: deployed applications, emerging applications, and challenge problems. The deployed applications track focuses on fielded AI applications that distinguish themselves for their innovative use of AI technology. For the year 2015, there were six papers in this track, including descriptions of the AI technology used for detecting procurement and health-care fraud, activity planning for lunar orbital missions, performing position assignment in the enterprise, modeling protest events in social media, and a special 30-history of one of AI’s longest running applications – the Process Diagnosis System (PDS).

    The emerging applications track focuses on areas in which AI technology can have a practical impact. For the year 2015, there were 13 papers in this track, covering topics on entity recognition, combining qualitative logic and crowdsourcing, machine learning and storm models, learning route preferences, collaborative planning, citizen science, cyber defense, sketch understanding for music education, and skill identification.

    Finally, the Challenge problems track included three papers proposing grand challenges for AI: the Winograd Challenge in commonsense reasoning, the Aristo Challenge in elementary school science, and a challenge in large-scale flow cytometry.

    The IAAI-15 chair was David Gunning (PARC, USA). The conference was cochaired by Peter Z. Yeh (Nuance Communications, USA).

    The conferences are sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.
