About the Main Conference KI 2014 is the 37th edition of the German Conference on Artificial Intelligence, which traditionally brings together academic and industrial researchers from all areas of AI, providing a premier forum for exchanging news and research results on theory and applications of intelligent system technology. The conference covers the fundamentals of AI, its algorithms, its history and its applications. The technical program of KI 2014 will comprise invited talks by distinguished international AI researchers, paper and poster presentations, 3 workshops, 2 tutorials, and a Technical Paper and Poster Presentation KI 2014 received 62 submissions with authors from 21 countries on a variety of different topics: • Agent-based and multi-agent systems • AI applications and innovations • Cognitive modeling • Commonsense reasoning • Computer vision • Constraint satisfaction, search, and optimization • Evolutionary computation • Game playing and interactive entertainment • Information retrieval, integration, and extraction • Knowledge acquisition and ontologies • Knowledge representation and reasoning • Machine learning and data mining • Multidisciplinary AI • Natural language processing • Planning and scheduling • Robotics • Uncertainty in AI • Web and information systems Each submission was reviewed by at least three members of a distinguished Program Committee or external referees to ensure that all accepted papers and poster presentations meet the highest standard of original, significant, and relevant contributions to the science of Artificial Intelligence. Probabilistic programming is an emerging subfield of AI that extends traditional programming languages with primitives to support probabilistic inference and learning. It is closely related to statistical relational learning, but focuses on a programming language perspective rather than on a graphical model one.
