Introduction
------------
The FANCCO 2019 is the fifth international conference of this series.
FANCCO 2019 conference aims at bringing together researchers from academia and
industry to report and review the latest progresses in the cutting - edge
research with Fuzzy and Neural computing to explore new application areas and
to design new algorithms for solving specific hard problems and to create 
awareness on these domains to a wider audience and practitioners. Therefore, 
researchers are encouraged to submit their contributions in both theoretical 
and practical aspects.

Theme
-----
The topics of the conference is related to the following (but not limited to):
Neural Network theory & models, Learning and adaptation, Computational 
neuroscience, Cognitive models, Brain-machine interfaces, Neurodynamics, 
Neuroinformatics, Neuroengineering, Neural hardware.
