====================================================================


KI 2016 is the 39th edition of the German Conference on Artificial
Intelligence organized by Fachbereich KÃŒnstliche Intelligenz der
Gesellschaft für Informatik in conjunction with Österreichische
Gesellschaft für Artificial Intelligence.  KI 2016 will be in
Klagenfurt from September 26th-30th, 2016, co-located with Informatik
2016 (Annual Conference of the German Informatics Society) and MATES
2016 (The 14th German Conference on Multi-Agent System Technologies).

The KI 2016 organizing committee invites submissions to the Doctoral
Consortium to be held in conjunction with the conference.


Doctoral Program
----------------

There will be a PhD workshop with oral presentations and a poster
session during the KI main conference, both providing opportunity for
obtaining feedback. Student coauthors of accepted KI research papers
(short or long) can also apply for participation in any of the events
of the PhD program.

Doctoral students may also participate in a mentoring program that
will connect students with experienced researchers in their field. The
organizers will schedule personal meetings between mentors and
students. Students can indicate their interest in this program when
submitting their contribution, or directly by contacting the
organizers. The schedule of the meetings will be announced ahead of
the event.
