			   CALL FOR PAPERS

		      SECOND IEEE INTERNATIONAL
		     CONFERENCE ON FUZZY SYSTEMS
			     FUZZ-IEEE'93

		      San Francisco, California
		       March 28 - April 1, 1993

In recent years, increasing attention has been devoted to fuzzy-logic
approaches and to their application to the solution of real-world
problems.

The Second IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE
'93) will be dedicated to the discussion of advances in:

  * Basic Principles and Foundations of Fuzzy Logic
  * Relations between Fuzzy Logic and other Approximate
    Reasoning Methods
  * Qualitative and Approximate-Reasoning Modeling
  * Hardware Implementations of Fuzzy-Logic Algorithms
  * Learning and Acquisition of Approximate Models
  * Relations between Fuzzy Logic and Neural Networks
  * Applications to
     * System Control
     * Intelligent Information Systems
     * Case-Based Reasoning
     * Decision Analysis
     * Signal Processing
     * Image Understanding
     * Pattern Recognition
     * Robotics and Automation
     * Intelligent Vehicle and Highway Systems

This conference will be held concurrently with the 1993 IEEE
International Conference on Neural Networks.  Participants will be
able to attend the technical events of both meetings.

CONFERENCE ORGANIZATION

This conference is sponsored by the IEEE Neural Networks Council, in
cooperation with:

    International Fuzzy Systems Association
    North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society
    Japan Society for Fuzzy Theory and Systems.
    IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society
    ELITE - European Laboratory for Intelligent Techniques Engineering


The conference includes tutorials, exhibits, plenary sessions, and
social events.
