Progress in Artificial Intelligence

Zusammenfassung

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th Portuguese Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA 2007, held in Guimarães, Portugal, in December 2007 as eleven integrated workshops. The 58 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 210 submissions. In accordance with the eleven constituting workshops, the papers are organized in topical sections on a broad range of subjects.
