Re: Presentations given at JSAI AI Symposium, 5-6 Dec 1990, Tokyo Japan.
Date: 26 Dec 1990
ABSTRACT. The 1990 Joint Artificial Intelligence Symposium, sponsored by
JSAI, was held on December 5 and 6 in the Sunshine City complex, located
in the Ikebukuro section of Tokyo. Three JSAI special-interest groups
organized the meeting: Fundamental AI, Knowledge-based Systems, and
Human Interfaces and Cognition. Attendance numbered about 70. A
proceedings (in Japanese) was issued containing the papers presented on
the second day of the symposium.
Following is the list of presentations, papers, and events for the
symposium. This list was prepared by
