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

人工智能的历史以其研究领域的持续专业化和多样化为标志。有时，需要对事态的发展做出某种反应，让理论家可以退一步，考虑人工智能子领域的理论的影响，这些领域对集成系统的开发可能很重要。人工智能的各个领域，比如自然语言理解和计算机视觉，都取得了重大进展，但该领域缺乏高度的整合。这次研讨会的目标是将来自美国和日本的顶级研究人员聚集在一起，探索在多媒体环境中整合的潜在发展，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.//
