Report on the Eighteenth International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning

Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR) has continuously been the preeminent international meeting on case-based reasoning (CBR). Through 2009, ICCBR had been a biennial conference, held in alternation with its sister conference, the European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ECCBR), which was located in Europe. At the 2009 ICCBR, the ICCBR Program Committee elected to extend an offer of consolidation with ECCBR. The offer was accepted by the ECCBR 2010 organizers and they considered it approved by the ECCBR community, as the two conferences shared a majority of Program Committee members. Therefore, starting in 2010, ICCBR and ECCBR are merged in a single conference series, called ICCBR.
