ECSQARU 2025 : 18th European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty
The biennial ECSQARU conferences (www.ecsqaru.org/) constitute a major forum for advances in the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty, with a focus on bringing symbolic and quantitative aspects together. Contributions come from researchers interested in advancing the scientific knowledge and from practitioners using uncertainty techniques in real-world applications. The scope of the ECSQARU conferences encompasses fundamental issues, representation, inference, learning, and decision making in qualitative and numeric uncertainty paradigms.
Previous ECSQARU events have been held in Arras (2023), Prague (2021), Belgrade (2019), Lugano (2017), Compiegne (2015), Utrecht (2013), Belfast (2011), Verona (2009), Hammamet (2007), Barcelona (2005), Aalborg (2003), Toulouse (2001), London (1999), Bonn (1997), Fribourg (1995), Granada (1993), and Marseille (1991).
ECSQARU 2025 will welcome papers on the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty. This includes the following topics, but is not limited to:
Algorithms for uncertain inference)
Applications of uncertain systems
Argumentation
Acting under uncertainty
Belief functions
Belief change and belief merging
Classification and clustering
Decision theory and decision graphs
Default reasoning and non-monotonicity
Description logics with uncertainty
Foundations of reasoning under uncertainty
Fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic
Game theory
Hybrid reasoning
Imprecise probabilities
Inconsistency handling
Information fusion
Learning for uncertainty formalisms
Logics for reasoning under uncertainty
Markov decision processes
Planning under uncertainty
Possibility theory and possibilistic logic
Preferences
Probabilistic graphical models
Probabilistic logics
Qualitative uncertainty models
Rough sets
Uncertainty and data
Submitted papers must be original and not under review in a journal or another venue with formally published proceedings. They will be evaluated by peer reviews based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. The reviewing process is single blind.
Authors of accepted papers are expected to attend the conference to present their work, at least one author of each paper must register for the conference.
Submitted papers must be at most 12 pages (excluding references) in the Springer LNCS/LNAI format:

Paper submission, in PDF format, will be managed through OpenReview at
https://openreview.net/group?id=ECSQARU.org/2025/Conference
and will be opened on January 1, 2025. It is mendatory to register an abstract beforehand. The abstract submission deadline is May 8, 2025; and the submission deadline for papers is May 15, 2025.
Accepted papers will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) series, which is a LNCS subseries.
