Welcome to IJCAI-PRICAI2020, the 29th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence and the 17th Pacific Rim International Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Yokohama is the second largest city in Japan, located 30 minutes from Tokyo by train. Since Japan opened its doors to the world in 1853, Yokohama has been the key entry point for international trade and communications, bringing global perspectives, new ideas and multiculturalism.

IJCAI-PRICAI2020 will take place in the Pacifico Yokohama, officially known as Pacifico Convention Plaza Yokohama, which is one of the largest convention and exhibition centers in Japan. The center is located in the waterfront Minato Mirai. Minato Mirai is a major center for business, shopping, and tourism, attracting visitors and businesspeople throughout the Greater Tokyo Area. Minato Mirai also attracts numerous tourists, as does the nearby Yokohama Chinatown.

In addition, the Olympic games will take place in the Tokyo area on July 24th, right after the conference. If you have the opportunity, you can enjoy both IJCAI-PRICAI2020 and the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. Please enjoy the leading artificial intelligence gathering in the world, while visiting Japanese traditions, the Olympic Games, and more.

IJCAI-PRICAI2020 was originally planned to be held in Nagoya. However, due to the capacity of the venue, IJCAI-PRICAI2020 has been moved from Nagoya to Yokohama.
