We are pleased to present the Workshop Proceedings of the Twenty-Fourth International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR-16), held on October 31st - November 2nd, 2016 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Our program this year includes new entries in two ongoing series of workshops (Synergies Between CBR and Knowledge Discovery and Reasoning About Time in CBR, with which the workshop on Process-Oriented CBR has merged) as well as a new workshop on Computational Analogy intended to reaffirm and strengthen the ties between the CBR and Computational Analogy research communities. This volume also includes proceedings of two events that have become ICCBR traditions: the Doctoral Consortium and the Computer Cooking Contest.
We would like to thank all who have contributed their time and effort to this year’s workshop program: the workshop and Doctoral Consortium organizers (Kerstin Bach, Isabelle Bichindaritz, Joseph Blass, Sarah Jane Delany, Tesca Fitzgerald, Katherine Fu, Odd Erik Gundersen, Cindy Marling, Mirjam Minor, Stefania Montani, Nadia A. Najjar, Santiago Ontañón, Miltos Petridis, Marc Pickett, Henri Prade, and David C. Wilson), the workshop program committee members, and all workshop paper authors. We are also thankful to the organizers of the ICCBR conference: program chair Ashok Goel, program co-chairs Belen Diaz-Agudo and Thomas Roth-Berghofer, publicity chairs Santiago Ontañón and Swaroop Vattam, local chairs Stephen Lee-Urban and Elizabeth Whitaker, and webmaster Jose Delgado. We would also like to express our gratitude to David Aha for his continuous support.
We hope that you enjoy this year’s workshop papers and presentations, and find lots of research inspiration and collaboration opportunities in Atlanta! Alexandra Coman Stelios Kapetanakis
