The research group led by Guan Quanlong and Fang Liangda from the School of Information Science and Technology has achieved significant recognition in the field of artificial intelligence, with three papers accepted by prestigious CCF Class A international journals and conferences: AIJ (Artificial Intelligence Journal) and IJCAI (International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence).

The accepted papers include:

1. On the Role of Logical Separation in Knowledge Compilation  

   - First Author: Qiu Junming (Graduate Student, Department of Computer Science, 2020)  

   - Second Author: Li Wenqing  

   - Co-Corresponding Authors: Associate Professor Fang Liangda, Professor Guan Quanlong  

   - Co-Authors: Associate Professor Lai Zhaorong (Department of Mathematics) and others    

2. A Multi Valued Decision Diagram Based Approach to Constrained Optimal Path Problems over Directed Acyclic Graphs  

   - First Author: Zhang Mingwei (Graduate Student, Department of Computer Science, 2022)  

   - Co-Corresponding Authors: Associate Professor Fang Liangda, Professor Guan Quanlong  

   - Co-Authors: Gu Zhenhao (Graduate Student, Department of Computer Science, 2022), Associate Professor Lai Yong (Jilin University)  

3. On the Logic of Theory Change of KM Update, Revised  

   - First Author: Associate Professor Fang Liangda  

   - Second Author: Zhu Tong (Graduate Student, Department of Computer Science, 2020)  

   - Co-Corresponding Authors: Professor Guan Quanlong, Qiu Junming (Graduate Student, Department of Computer Science, 2020)  

   - Co-Authors: Professor Luo Weiqi, Associate Professor Lai Zhaorong (Department of Mathematics), Professor Wan Hai (Sun Yat-sen University)  

Both IJCAI and AIJ are recognized as leading platforms in the field of artificial intelligence, with AIJ being the top international journal and IJCAI being the premier conference. The AIJ journal has a selective acceptance rate, receiving no more than 150 submissions annually, highlighting the significance of these achievements for the research group and the institution.

This accomplishment reflects the ongoing commitment to advancing research in artificial intelligence and the collaborative efforts of faculty and students within the School of Information Science and Technology and the Guangdong Smart Education Research Institute.
