NCEI'03: Neurocomputing and Evolving Intelligence 2003

[Nik Kasabov]

Conference 
"Neuro-Computing and Evolving Intelligence" 2003 - NCEI'03

20 and 21 November, 2003, Auckland, New Zealand
	 
Conference Chair: Prof. Nik Kasabov  (nkasabov at aut.ac.nz)
Programme Chair: Dr. Zeke Chan (shchan at aut.ac.nz)
Contact person:  Joyce D'Mello (joyce.dmello at aut.ac.nz) phone: +64 9

Technical support: Peter Hwang (peter.hwang at aut.ac.nz)

The emphasis of the Conference will be on connectionist-based
methods, systems and applications of Evolving Intelligence (EI) - 
information systems that develop, unfold, evolve their structure and
functionality over time through interaction with the environment. 
These systems evolve their "intelligence" through learning and
interaction. 

The topics of interest include:

	Novel methods for autonomous learning
	Novel methods for knowledge engineering and knowledge
discovery 
	Evolving intelligence (EI)
	Evolving molecular processes and their modelling
	Evolving processes in the brain and their modelling
	Evolving language and cognition
	Adaptive speech recognition
	Adaptive image and multi-modal processing
	Adaptive decision making
	Dynamic time-series modelling in a changing environment
	Adaptive control
	Adaptive intelligent systems on the WWW
	Applications in Medicine, Health, Information Technologies,
Horticulture, Agriculture, Bio-security, Business and finance, Process
and robot control.      

The two days event will include oral presentations, poster
presentations and various demonstrations of neurocomputing systems for
bioinformatics and biomedical applications; brain study and cognitive
engineering, agriculture, environment, decision support, speech
recognition and language processing, image and video processing,
multi-modal information processing, process control. 

Abstracts of 1 page should be submitted to the Program Chair before
6th October 2003. The abstracts will be reviewed and authors will be
notified on acceptance by 25th October. All accepted abstracts will be
published in conference proceedings. Selected papers will be invited
for publication in the special issues of two international journals.

Registration fee: NZ $300.

Bookings and registrations should be made through the contact person
Joyce D'Mello (joyce.dmello at aut.ac.nz; phone: 09 917 9504).
