** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION **
1993 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON NEURAL NETWORKS
SECOND IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON FUZZY SYSTEMS
March 28 - April 1, 1993
San Francisco Hilton
San Francisco, California
The IEEE Neural Networks Council cordially invites you to attend the
Second International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE'93) and the
1993 IEEE International Conference on Neural Networks (ICNN'93), to be
held concurrently at the San Francisco Hilton Hotel, San Francisco,
California from March 28 to April 1, 1993.
These IEEE-sponsored events have grown to become the largest conferences
in their fields. In 1993, their importance will be enhanced by their
combined meeting in an environment that assures that conference
participants will have full access to all functions and events of either
of these multidisciplinary meetings. In addition to an exciting program
of plenary lectures, tutorial presentations, and technical sessions and
panels, we anticipate an extraordinary trade show and exhibits program
affording a unique opportunity to become acquainted with the latest
developments in products based on neural-networks and fuzzy-systems
techniques.
