Bristol, United Kingdom - *Hybrid event*
6 - 9 September 2022
=============================================================

The International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) is 
the annual
flagship conference of the European Neural Network Society (ENNS). In 
2022 the
Department of Computer Science and Creative Technologies of the 
University of
the West of England, in Bristol, United Kingdom will organise ICANN 2022.
This will be held at Frenchay Campus from 6 to 9 September 2022.

The conference is currently planned as a *hybrid event* with some 
presence and
some online participation if possible. We will continuously monitor the 
situation
in the next few months according to the overall health developments.
*
**CONFERENCE TOPICS*
ICANN 2022 is a conference featuring tracks in Brain-inspired Computing and
Machine Learning in Artificial Neural Networks, with strong 
cross-disciplinary
interactions and applications. All research fields dealing with Neural 
Networks
will be present at the conference. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes:

*Machine Learning*: Deep Learning, Neural Network Theory, Neural Network 
Models,
Graphical Models, Bayesian Networks, Kernel Methods, Generative Models,
Information-theoretic Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Relational Learning,
Dynamical Models, Recurrent Networks, Ethics of AI.

*Brain-inspired Computing*: Cognitive models, Computational Neuroscience,
Self-organisation, Bioinspired Learning, Neural Control and Planning, Hybrid
Neural-Symbolic Architectures, Neural Dynamics, Cognitive Neuroscience, 
Brain
Informatics, Perception and Action.

*Neural Applications for*: Bioinformatics, Biomedicine, Intelligent 
Robotics,
Neurorobotics, Language Processing, Speech and Image Processing, Sensor 
Fusion,
Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Neural Agents, Brain-Computer Interaction,
Neural Hardware, Evolutionary Neural Networks.

*CALL FOR CONTRIBUTED SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATIONS*
All scientific communications presented at ICANN 2022 will be reviewed and
scientifically evaluated by a panel of experts. The conference will 
feature two
categories of communications:
- oral communications (15'+5')
- poster communications.

*Call for Special Sessions and Workshops*
ICANN 2022 organizers cordially invite internationally recognised experts to
organise Special sessions and Workshops within the general scope of the
conference. Proposals should be sent to ICANN2022 at uwe.ac.uk

*CALL FOR PAPERS*
Authors willing to present original contributions in either the oral or 
poster
category may submit:
- A full paper of maximum 12 pages (including references) to be published in
Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series with 
individual
DOI.
- An extended abstract of maximum 4 pages to be published in Springer-Verlag
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, without indexing.

The number of oral slots is limited. In case the number of requested oral
presentations is larger than the available slots, the ICANN scientific 
committee
will select which papers will be reassigned to a poster session. This 
selection
will be based on the coherence of the programme and is totally 
independent of
the category of submission.
Submission of communications will be on the conference website:
https://e-nns.org/icann2022/

*IMPORTANT DATES*
Deadline for special session and workshop proposals: 28 Feb 2022
Opening of contribution submissions: 21 Feb 2022
Deadline for full paper and extended abstract submission: 3 Apr 2022
Notification of acceptance: 10 Jun 2022
Camera-ready paper upload: 30 June 2022
Deadline for author registration and early registration at early rate: 
30 June 2022

*BEST PAPER AWARDS*
ENNS will sponsor a maximum of four best paper awards. All awards will be
presented during the final ceremony.

*TRAVEL GRANTS*
The European Neural Network Society sponsors a number of Student Travel 
Grants
covering part of the costs for attending ICANN. Details will be provided 
on the
conference website.
