Die 7. \sterreichische Artificial-Intelligence-Tagung fand vom 24.-27. September 1991 an der Technischen Universit{t Wien statt. Sie hat aufgrund der starken Beteiligung aus dem Ausland einen ausgepr{gt internationalen Charakter, weshalb auch der vorliegende Tagungsband zweisprachig herausgegeben wurde. Die behandelten Themen aus dem Gebiet der K}nstlichen Intelligenz (KI) werden repr{sentiert durch sechzehn begutachtete Beitr{ge sowie zwei eingeladene Vortr{ge. Sie sind thematisch breit gestreut, wobei sich gewisse Schwerpunkte in den Gebieten "Nat}rliche Sprache" und "Wissensbasierte Systeme" sowie Logik und Schlie en" abzeichnen.

Dieser Band enthalt die Beitrage zur Osterreichischen Artificial Intelligence - Tagung 1985, die vom 24. bis 27. September 1985 in Wien stattgefunden hat. Es war die erste Tagung dieser Art in Osterreich und ihr Ziel war es, Gber Forschungsaktivitaten auf dem immer wichtiger werdenden Gebiet der Artificial Intelligence in Osterreich zu informieren. Dies wurde auch erreichtj von den insgesamt 23 Beitragen des Bandes stammen 14 von Wissenschaftern aus Osterreich. Die Beitrage befassen sich mit folgenden Teil­ gebieten der AI: Expertensysteme, Naturlichsprachige Systeme, Wis­ senserwerb und Learning, AI-Tools, Automatisches Beweisen und Programmieren, Spiele, Auswirkungen der AI. 1m Vorprogramm wurden Tutorials zu den Themen "Einfuhrung in die AI", "Expertensysteme", "LISP und AI-Tools", "Roboter/ Flexible Automation" sowie "Naturlichsprachige Datenbank­ Interfaces" durchgefuhrt. Der rege Besuch bestatigte das all­ gemeine Interesse. Insgesamt zeigen die Beitrage dieses Bandes, daG die Forschung durchaus auf internationalem Niveau steht, was angesichts der kleinen Anzahl von Wissenschaftern und der beschrankten Mittel positiv uberrascht. Wir mochten an dieser Stelle allen, die mit Ihren Beitragen diese Tagung ermoglicht haben, herzlich danken. Besondere An­ erkennung gilt auch allen Mitgliedern der OGAI und Mitar­ beitern, die zum Erfolg beigetragen haben.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Machine Learning and Data Mining for Sports Analytics, MLSA 2018, colocated with ECML/PKDD 2018, in Dublin, Ireland, in September 2018. The 12 full papers presented together with 4 challenge papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The papers present a variety of topics, covering the team sports American football, basketball, ice hockey, and soccer, as well as the individual sports cycling and martial arts. In addition, four challenge papers are included, reporting on how to predict pass receivers in soccer.

This volume contains the contributions to the Joint German/Austrian Con- rence on Arti?cial Intelligence, KI 2001, which comprises the 24th German and the 9th Austrian Conference on Arti?cial Intelligence. They are divided into the following categories: – 2 contributions by invited speakers of the conference; – 29 accepted technical papers, of which 5 where submitted as application papers and 24 as papers on foundations of AI; – 4 contributions by participants of the industrial day, during which companies working in the ?eld presented their AI applications. After a long period of separate meetings, the German and Austrian Societies ̈ for Arti?cial Intelligence, KI and OGAI, decided to hold a joint conference in Vienna in 2001. The two societies had previously held one joint conference. This took place in Ottstein, a small town in Lower Austria, in 1986. At that time, the rise of expert system technology had also renewed interest in AI in general, with quite some expectations for future advances regarding the use of AI techniques in applications pervading many areas of our daily life. Since then ?fteen years have passed, and we may want to comment, at the beginning of a newcentury, on the progress that has been made in this direction.
