The focus of this conference is on real-world applications of artificial neural
networks and on recent theoretical developments applicable to current
applications. The goal of this conference is to provide a forum for interaction
between researchers and industrial/government agencies with information
processing requirements. Papers that investigate advantages/disadvantages of
artificial neural networks in specific real-world applications will be
presented. Papers that clearly state existing problems in information
processing that could potentially be solved by artificial neural networks will
also be considered.
Sessions will concentrate on:
* innovative applications of artificial neural networks to solve
real-world problems
* comparative performance in applications of target recognition,
object recognition, speech processing, speaker identification,
cochannel processing, signal processing in realistic
environments, robotics, process control, and image processing
* demonstrations of properties and limitations of existing or new
artificial neural networks as shown by or related to an
application
* environments for artificial neural networks development and
implementation with specific applications used to demonstrate
features of the systems
* hardware implementation technologies that are general purpose or
application specific
* knowledge acquisition and representation
* biologically inspired visual representation techniques
* decision support systems
* artificial life
* cognitive science
* hybrid systems (fuzzy, neural, genetic)
* neurobiology
* optimization
* sensation and perception
* system identification
* financial applications
* time series analysis and prediction
* pattern recognition
* medical applications
* intelligent control
* robotics.
