We as a community greatly thank outgoing members David Bergman (president), Tias Guns (secretary), Zeynep Kiziltan (DEI delegate), and Chris Beck (past president).
In this quarterly report 4, we provide updates on AAAI Bridge and the coming two CP conferences.
AAAI25 Bridge#
Eugene Freuder and Barry O’Sullivan are organizing the AAAI-25 Constraint Programming and Machine Learning Bridge, part of the AAAI-25 Bridge Program.
The focus will be on bringing together the traditional AI fields of constraint-based reasoning and machine learning, but participants from related fields of reasoning, optimization and learning, e.g. SAT, operations research, data mining, will be welcome.
