UNESCO recently recognized the University of Coimbra,aswellassomeareasofthecity,asaworldheritagesite,acknowledgingits relevance in the dissemination of knowledge throughout the fields of arts, sciences, law, architecture, urban planning, and landscape. It is therefore the ideal period to welcome back the conference to Coimbra. EPIA events have a longstanding tradition in the Portuguese Artificial Intelligence (AI)community.TheirpurposeistopromoteresearchinAIandthescientificexchange among researchers, practitioners, scientists, and engineers in related disciplines. The first edition took place in 1985 and since 1989 it has occurred biennially as an inter- national conference. Continuing this successful tradition, the 17th Portuguese Con- ference on Artificial Intelligence (EPIA 2015) took place on the campus of the UniversityofCoimbra,Coimbra,Portugal(http://epia2015.dei.uc.pt),September8–11, 2015. Followingtheorganizationofrecenteditions,EPIA2015wasorganizedasaseries of thematic tracks. Each track was coordinated by an Organizing Committee and includes a specific international Program Committee, composed of experts in the corresponding scientific area. Twelve thematic tracks were selected for EPIA 2015: - Ambient Intelligence and Affective Environments (AmIA) - Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIM) - Artificial Intelligence in Transportation Systems (AITS) - Artificial LifeandEvolutionaryAlgorithms(ALEA)-ComputationalMethodsinBioinformatics and Systems Biology (CMBSB) - General Artificial Intelligence (GAI) - Intelligent Information Systems (IIS) - Intelligent Robotics (IROBOT) - Knowledge Discovery and Business Intelligence (KDBI) - Multi-Agent Systems: Theory and Applications (MASTA) - Social Simulation and Modelling (SSM) - Text Mining and Applications (TEMA). For this edition, 131 submissions were received. All papers were reviewed in a double-blind process by at least three members of the corresponding track Program Committee. Some of the submissions were reviewed by up to 5 reviewers. Following the revision process, 45 contributions were accepted as full regular papers. This cor- respondstoafullpaperacceptancerateofapproximately34%.Additionally,36other contributions were accepted as short papers. Geographically, the authors of accepted contributionsbelong toresearchgroupsfrom18different countries–Algeria,Austria, Brazil, the Czech Republic, Egypt, France, India, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, the UK, and the USA –, confirming the attractiveness and international character of the conference. We express our gratitude for the hard work of the track chairs and the members of the different Program Committees, as they were crucial for ensuring the high sci- entificqualityoftheevent.Thisconferencewasonlypossiblethankstothejointeffort of many people from different institutions.
