**Apologies for cross posting.**

**Please forward this call for papers to anyone else who might be
interested.**

 The paper submission deadline for IEEE Symposium on Neuromorphic Systems
and Cyborg Intelligence (IEEE SNCI'16) ， one of the symposiums of the 2016
IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (IEEE SSCI 2016) has
been extended to

 *August 15, 2016*.

The 2016 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (IEEE SSCI
2016) will be held in Athens, Greece, a city full of arts, philosophy and
historical attractions. SSCI is a flagship annual international conference
on computational intelligence sponsored by the IEEE Computational
Intelligence Society, promoting all aspects of theory, algorithm design,
applications and related emerging techniques. As a tradition, IEEE SSCI
2016 will co-locate a number of symposiums, each dedicated to a special
topic related to computational intelligence, thereby providing a unique
platform for promoting cross-fertilization. SSCI 2016 will be featured by
cross-symposium tutorials, keynote speeches, panel discussions, PhD
consortiums, oral presentations and poster sessions. Student grants, Best
paper Awards and Student Best Paper Award will be given.

*2016 IEEE Symposium on Neuromorphic Systems and Cyborg Intelligence (IEEE
SNCI'16) *

The 2016 IEEE Symposium on Neuromorphic Systems and Cyborg Intelligence
(SNCI’16) will be held in Athens, Greece, December 6 - 10, 2016, following
the success of the first international symposium held in Beijing and the
second in Hangzhou 2014. SNCI’16 will be a part of the IEEE Symposium
Series on Computational Intelligence 2016. In recent years neuromorphic
computing has been an important emerging research area. There has been
rapid progress in various computational theories, learning algorithms,
signal processing algorithm, circuit designs and implementations, which
have shown appealing computational advantages over conventional approaches.
Emulating the computational principles and architecture found in neural
systems, neuromorphic computing studies sensory coding, synaptic computing,
learning (e.g., STDP) and memory, and attempts to develop neuromorphic
sensors, processors, and sensory motor systems for robotic agents.
Neuromorphic systems overlap with another framework called cyborg
intelligence, combining brain functions with computational machines to
achieve the best of both via brain-machine interfaces. The symposium will
provide an important platform for the researchers across all related fields
to exchange the ideas and report recent progress, and aims to bring new
theoretical and technical advances in neuromorphic computing and cyborg
intelligence.
