We invite students and young post-doctoral AI fellows to submit their work to the Eighth European Starting AI Researcher Symposium (STAIRS).
STAIRS is an international meeting intended to support AI researchers, from all countries, at the beginning of their career: PhD students or people holding a PhD for less than one year. STAIRS 2016 will be co-located with ECAI 2016, the European Conference on AI, in The Hague, Holland, 26 Aug – 2 Sept 2016.
STAIRS offers doctoral students and young post-doctoral AI researchers:
- a first experience of submitting and presenting a paper in an international forum with a broad scope and a peer review process
- an opportunity to discuss and explore their research interests and European career objectives and opportunities.
