Preface The 17th annual conference ITAT took place in Hotel Martinské hole, Slovakia, at an altitude of 1223 m, from 22 to 26 September 2017. ITAT, meaning Information Technologies — Applications and Theory, is a place where young re- searchers, doctoral students and their teachers meet every year to present their results from the various fields of computer science. They come mainly from the Czech and Slovak republic, but the conference is open to participants from other countries as well. In addition to the professional pro- gram, much time is devoted to informal discussions, and above all to the formation and maintenance of friendly relations between scientists from the both countries. The Slovak mountains make a perfect background for that. The 2017 conference consisted of the main track and 3 workshops: • CIDM (Computational Intelligence and Data Mining) • SloNLP (Slovenskočeský NLP workshop) • W3-ChaT (WWW-Challenges and Trends) All the 37 submitted papers were reviewed by two or more independent reviewers. The proceed- ings contain 34 scientific papers and abstracts of four invited talks: Jiří Hana (Geneea): Text Generation in Natural Languages Antoni Ligeza˛ (AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków, Poland): Rules, Causality and Constraints. Model-Based Reasoning and Structural Knowledge Discovery Ostap Okhrin (Dresden University of Technology, Germany): Estimations of the Hierarchical Archi- medean Copula Lubomír Soukup (ÚTIA): How Accurate Are Digital Maps?
