Preface

This volume contains the papers presented at the 29th Australasian Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence 2016 (AI 2016), which was held in Hobart, Australia, December 5–8, 2016. The conference is the premier event for artificial intelligence in Australasia and provides a forum for researchers and practitioners across all subfields of artificial intelligence to meet and discuss recent advances. This year, we were co-located with the 2016 International Conference on Smart Media and Applications (SMA 2016), with which we shared the keynote speech session, a joint session, and a social event.
