\typeout{Conference Style, version of November 2018}

% All bug reports should be directed to proceedings@ijcai.org
% The following comments are from the original ijcai97.sty

% The current two-column conference style.
% Heavily adapted from the IJCAI-89 original style.
% Fixes from various people incorporated up to the IJCAI-95 style.
% Some major changes for the IJCAI-2018 edition

% To use, place in a file called conference.sty, or whatever your conference
% is called, in the TeX search path.  (Placing it in the same directory as
% the paper should also work.) 

% Prepared by Peter F. Patel-Schneider, 
% liberally using the ideas of
% other style hackers, including Barbara Beeton.
% This style is NOT guaranteed to work.  It is provided in the hope
% that it will make the preparation of papers easier.
%
% The preparation of this file was supported by Schlumberger Palo Alto
% Research, AT\&T Bell Laboratories, AAAI, and Morgan Kaufmann Publishers.

% \pubnote added by J. Scott Penberthy

% These instructions can be modified and used in other conferences as long
% as credit to the authors and supporting agencies is retained, this notice
% is not changed, and further modification or reuse is not restricted.
%
% If you are organizing a conference, and want to use this file, you should
% appoint a contact person to handle any problems!
%
% If you are using this file for the preparation of papers for a
% conference that supplied you with this file, you should contact the
% organizers of the conference if you have any problems.  They should have
% much more information than I have.

% There are undoubtably bugs in this style.  If you make bug fixes,
% improvements, etc.  please let us know at proceedings@ijcai.org.

% NOTE:  Some laser printers have a serious problem printing TeX output.
% These printing devices, commonly known as ``write-white'' laser
% printers, tend to make characters too light.  To get around this
% problem, a darker set of fonts must be created for these devices.

\typeout{Named Citation Style, version of 30 November 1994}

% This file implements citations for the ``named'' bibliography style.
%  Place it in a file called named.sty in the TeX search path.  (Placing it
% in the same directory as the LaTeX document should also work.)

% Prepared by Peter F. Patel-Schneider, with the assistance of several,
% since forgotten, LaTeX hackers.
% This style is NOT guaranteed to work.  It is provided in the hope
% that it will make the preparation of papers easier.
%
% There are undoubtably bugs in this style.  If you make bug fixes,
% improvements, etc.  please let me know.  My e-mail address is:
%       pfps@research.att.com

% The preparation of this file was supported by Schlumberger Palo Alto
% Research and AT\&T Bell Laboratories.

% This file can be modified and used in other conferences as long
% as credit to the authors and supporting agencies is retained, this notice
% is not changed, and further modification or reuse is not restricted.

% The ``named'' bibliography style creates citations with labels like
%       \citeauthoryear{author-info}{year}
% these labels are processed by the following commands:
%       \cite{keylist}
%               which produces citations with both author and year,
%               enclosed in square brackets
%       \shortcite{keylist}
%               which produces citations with year only,
%               enclosed in square brackets
%       \citeauthor{key}
%               which produces the author information only
%       \citeyear{key}
%               which produces the year information only
