CALL FOR PAPERS

The 3rd INNS Conference on Big Data and Deep Learning 2018
April 17-19, 2018, Bali, Indonesia

Homepage: http://www.innsbigdata2018.org

#######################Description:######################
The International Neural Network Society (INNS) is the premiere organization for individuals interested in a theoretical and computational understanding of the brain and applying that knowledge to develop new and more effective forms of machine intelligence. INNS was formed in 1987 by the leading scientists in the neural network field. 

Researchers and colleagues who work in the area of big data and machine learning, we are happy to announce "The 3rd INNS Conference on Big Data and Deep Learning (INNS BDDL) will be held Tuesday through Thursday, April 17 – 19, 2018 at the Grand Inna Bali Beach hotel, Sanur, Bali, Indonesia. The INNS BDDL conference aims to create a valuable and important forum for scientists and engineers throughout the world to present the latest research findings and idea at the forefront of Big Data and Deep Learning."

Accepted and presented papers will be published in Procedia Computer Science indexed by Scopus. Several papers will be selected for possible publication in a high-quality journal. A preliminary list of such journals includes:
- Cognitive Systems Research (Scopus SJR 0.648, Impact Factor 1.182) 
- Cognitive Computation (Scopus SJR 0.823, Impact Factor 3.441) 
- Big Data Analytics 
- Evolving Systems (Scopus SJR 0.459, Impact Factor 1.067) 
- International Journal of Neural Systems (Scopus SJR 1.121, Impact Factor 6.333) 
- and possibly others

Several papers will be selected for possible publication in top journals.

The conference will feature a comprehensive technical program with technical tracks on:
Track 1: Big Data
Track 2: Big Data Algorithms
Track 3: Deep Learning
Track 4: Application Areas
