Program: The scientific program will include invited talks, presentations of accepted papers, poster and demo sessions. ECML-95 will be followed by MLNet familiarization workshops for which a separate call for proposals will be published (contact mlnet@computing- science.aberdeen.ac.uk). Research areas: Submissions are invited in all areas of Machine Learning, including, but not limited to: abduction analogy applications of machine learning automated discovery case-based learning comput. learning theory explanation-based learning inductive learning inductive logic programming genetic algorithms learning and problem solving multistrategy learning reinforcement learning representation change revision and restructuring Program Chairs: Nada Lavravc (J. Stefan Institute, Ljubljana) and Stefan Wrobel (GMD, Sankt Augustin). Program Committee: F. Bergadano (Italy) I. Bratko (Slovenia) P. Brazdil (Portugal) W. Buntine (USA) L. De Raedt (Belgium) W.

Box 1385, 71110 Heraklion, Crete, Greece (E-mail ecml-95@ics.forth.gr). Submission of papers: Paper submissions are limited to 5000 words. The title page must contain the title, names and addresses of authors, abstract of the paper, research area, a list of keywords and demo request (yes/no). Full address, including phone, fax and E-mail, must be given for the first author (or the contact person). Title page must also be sent by E-mail to ecml-95@gmd.de. If possible, use the sample LaTeX title page that will be available from ftp.gmd.de, directory /ml-archive/general/ecml-95. Six (6) hard copies of the whole paper should be sent by 2November 1994 to: Nada Lavrac & Stefan Wrobel (ECML-95) GMD, FIT.KI, Schloss Birlinghoven, 53754 Sankt Augustin, Germany Papers will be evaluated with respect to technical soundness, significance, originality and clarity. Papers will either be accepted as full papers (presented at plenary sessions, published as full papers in the proceedings) or posters (presented at poster sessions, published as extended abstracts). System and application exhibitions : ECML-95 offers commercial and academic participants an opportunity to demonstrate their systems and/or applications. Please announce your intention to demo to the local chair by 24 March 1995, specifying precisely what type of hardware and software you need. We strongly encourage authors of papers that describe systems or applications to accompany their presentation with a demo (please indicate on the title page).
