The fifth JSAI International Symposia on AI (JSAI-isAI) will take place at Keio University, Kanagawa on October 27th and 28th, 2013. JSAI-isAI is an event that hosts several international workshops at the same location. This is in succession to the international workshops co-located with JSAI annual conferences since 2001. JSAI invites proposals for the fifth JSAI-isAI.

JSAI-isAI brings together a set of workshops at a common site, providing a unique and intimate forum for colleagues in a given discipline. JSAI-isAI also provides an important opportunity for AI researchers to get together and share their knowledge.
