There was an overwhelming interest to the call for papers for the conf- ence. As a result, PRICAI 2010 attracted 191 full-paper submissions to the regular session and the special sessions of the conference from researchers from many regions of the world. Each submitted paper was carefully considered by a combination of several independent reviewers, Program Committee members, Associate Chairs, Program Vice Chairs and Program Chairs, and ?nalized in a highly selective process that balanced many aspects of the paper, including the signi?cance, originality, technical quality and clarity of the contributions, and its relevance to the conference topics. As a result, this volume reproduces 48 - pers that were accepted as regular papers (including the special session papers) and 21 papers that were accepted as short papers. This gives a regular paper acceptance rate of 25. 13%, and a short paper acceptance rate of 10. See more
