The University of Liverpool’s Department of Computer Science succeeded in getting seven papers accepted at the International Joint Conference of Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI-09), to be held in Pasadena, California in July, 2009.
In total, 1,290 papers were submitted to the technical conference. The program committee accepted a total of 331 papers, for an acceptance rate of about 25.7%. IJCAI is a highly selective conference, attracting the highest level of expertise in Artificial Intelligence.
Getting seven papers accepted could be considered as a pretty remarkable achievement, and is on par with the achievements of the world’s leading Universities in this area, such as Stanford, MIT or CMU. However, this, and the recent success with both the RAE and the achievement of three best paper awards in 2008 is indicative of the excellence in research and in the International standing of researchers working in Liverpool’s Department of Computer Science.
