Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are widely used in computer applications to perform tasks such as monitoring, forecasting, recommending, prediction, and statistical reporting. However, the quality assurance of existing AI application development processes is still far from satisfactory and the demand to be able to show demonstrable levels of confidence in such systems is growing. Therefore, it is timely to provide an international forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange novel research results, to articulate the problems and challenges from practices, to deepen our understanding of the subject area with new theories, methodologies, techniques, processes models, etc., and to improve the practices with new tools and resources.

Submission Guidelines
We primarily invite submission of research papers that describe original and significant work, but also papers which report on case studies and empirical research.
Papers must not have been accepted for publication, or be under submission to another conference or journal. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee, using a single-blind reviewing procedure.
All papers must be submitted electronically using the EasyChair conference system in PDF format. Each paper is limited to 8 pages including figures and references using IEEE Computer Society Proceedings (two columns, single-spaced, 10pt font).
At least one of the authors of any accepted paper will have to register for the conference and confirm that she/he will present the paper in person.
