Call for Tutorials

Scope and Aims

The Hellenic Conference on Artificial Intelligence is organised biannually by the Hellenic Artificial Intelligence Society (EETN). It has already been established as one of the most prominent forums for Greek and International AI scientists to present original and high-quality research on emergent topics of Artificial Intelligence.

SETN 2010 highly encourages international participation and the language of the conference is English.

The 6th Hellenic Conference on Artificial Intelligence (SETN'10) will be held in Athens, Greece, 5-7 May 2010. SETN'10 is organised by EETN, the Hellenic AI Society, in collaboration with the Institute of Informatics and Telecommunications at NCSR "Demokritos".

The conference includes a tutorials session on May 5th, which aims to inform undergraduate and postgraduate students about the current state of affairs of AI research as conducted by scientists in Greece and worldwide.

To this purpose, the SETN'10 tutorials session will strive to offer conference attendees and local participants a stimulating and informative selection of tutorials reflecting current theoretical as well as applied AI topics that have a relevance to any of the scientific topics of the conference.

A focus on AI in the field of Cultural Heritage preservation, curation, and presentation is encouraged.
