US-Japan Workshop on Interated Comprehensive and Generation Systems in Multi-Media Environments

人工智能的历史标志着其研究领域的持续专业化和多样化。有时，需要对发展做出某种反应，理论家可以退后一步，考虑人工智能子领域中理论的含义，这些理论对集成系统的发展可能很重要。人工智能的所有领域，如自然语言理解和计算机视觉，都取得了重大进展，但该领域缺乏高水平的集成。本次研讨会的目的是汇集美日两国的顶级研究人员，探讨综合多媒体环境的潜在发展，并促进两国在这一问题上的更好理解和合作。//

The history of artificial intelligence has been marked by a continuing specialization and diversification of its areas of research. At times, some sort of reaction to developments is needed, one in which theorists can step back and consider the implications of theories in subareas of artificial intelligence that are potentially important to the development of integrated systems. All areas of artificial intelligence, such a natural language understanding and computer vision, have made significant progress, but the field lacks a high level of integration. The goal of this workshop is to bring together top-level researchers form both the US and Japan to explore potential development of an integrated in multi-media environments, as well as to promote better understanding and cooperation on this problem between the two countries.//
