Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge

TARK X

 

June 10-12, 2005

Singapore


About the Conference

The mission of the TARK conferences is to bring together researchers from a wide ariety of fields, including Artificial Intelligence, Cryptography, Distributed Computing, Economics and Game Theory, Linguistics, Philosophy, and Psychology, in order to further our understanding of interdisciplinary issues nvolving reasoning about rationality and knowledge. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, semantic models for knowledge, belief, and uncertainty, bounded rationality and resource-bounded reasoning, commonsense epistemic reasoning, epistemic logic, knowledge and action, applications of reasoning about knowledge and other mental states, belief revision, and foundations of multi-agent systems.

TARK X will occur as part of an 8-week program "Uncertainty and Information in Economics", organized by the Institute for Mathematical Sciences (IMS), National University of Singapore in the period of 9 May - 3 July 2005. TARK X will take place in conjunction with a workshop in the program, which is to be held on 6-10 June 2005 (see http://www.ims.nus.edu.sg/Programs/uie/index.htm).
