Preface
Thisvolumecontainsthepaperspresentedatthe13thPacificRimInternational
Conference on Artificial Intelligence (PRICAI 2014) held during December 1-5,
2014, on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.
PRICAI is a biennial conference inaugurated in Tokyo in 1990 to promote
collaborativeexploitationinartificialintelligence(AI)inthePacificRimnations.
Italsoprovidesacommonforumforresearchersandpractitionersinvariousfield
of AI to exchange new ideas and share their experience. Over the past 20 years,
the conference has grown, both in participation and scope, to be a premier
international AI event for all major Pacific Rims nations as well as countries
from all around the world, highlighting the most significant contributions to
the field of AI. This year, PRICAI 2014 also featured three special sessions
on the emerging multi-disciplinary research: Commonsense Cognitive Robotics,
Intelligent Health Services, and Smart Modelling and Simulation.
This year, we received 203 high-quality submissions to both the main track
andspecial tracks.Papersfor the mainand special trackswere evaluatedto the
samehighstandardintermsofquality.Eachpaperreceivedatleasttworeviews,
in most cases three, and in some cases, up to four. An author rebuttal process
was implemented. During the review process, discussions among the Program
Committee (PC) members in charge were carried out before decisions could be
made,andwhennecessary,additionalreviewswerecollected.ManyPCmembers
alsoupdatedtheir reviewsto reflecthowthey havetakenthe authors’responses
into account. Finally, the program co-chairs read the reviews and author re-
sponses, and made a final calibration for differences among individual reviewer
scoresinlightoftheoveralldecisions.Theentireorganization(PCmembers,ad-
ditional reviewers, and co-chairs) expended tremendous effort to be as fair and
careful as possible. Eventually, we accepted 74 regular papers (including special
sessionpapers)for oral presentation.This gives a regularpaper acceptance rate
of 36.45%. We also accepted 20 short papers for poster presentation.
The technical program started with two days of workshops and tutorials,
followed by the main conference program. Regular papers were presented over

We are grateful to them for sharing their insights on their latest research with
us.
