Dear Colleagues,

We have organised an exciting event: HIS'2001: International Workshop on Hybrid Intelligent Systems

Venue: Adelaide, South Australia
Date: 11-12, December 2001
Workshop URL: http://his.hybridsystem.com   

(Technically co-sponsored by The World Federation of Soft Computing)

HIS'01 is an International Workshop that brings together researchers, developers, practitioners, and users of neural networks, fuzzy inference systems, evolutionary algorithms and conventional techniques. The aim of HIS'01 is to serve as a forum to present current and future work as well as to exchange research ideas in this field.

HIS'01 invites authors to submit their original and unpublished work that demonstrate current research using hybrid computing techniques and their applications in science, technology, business and commercial.

Topics of interest include but not limited to:

Applications/techniques using the following, but not limited to:

  • Machine learning techniques (supervised/unsupervised/ reinforcement learning)
  • Artificial neural network and evolutionary algorithms
  • Artificial neural network optimization using global optimization techniques
  • Neural networks and fuzzy inference systems
  • Fuzzy clustering algorithms optimized using evolutionary algorithms
  • Evolutionary computation (genetic algorithms, genetic programming ,evolution strategies, grammatical evolution etc)
  • Hybrid optimization techniques (simulated annealing, tabu search, GRASP etc.)
  • Hybrid computing using neural networks-fuzzy systemsevolutionary algorithms
  • Intelligent agents (architectures, environments, adaptation/learning and knowledge management)
  • Hybrid of soft computing and hard computing techniques
  • Models using inductive logic programming, decomposition methods, grammatical inference, case-based reasoning etc.
  • Other intelligent techniques ( support vector machines, rough sets, Bayesian networks, probabilistic reasoning, minimum message length etc)
                         Paper Submission
*************************************************************

We invite you to submit a full paper of 20 pages(maximum limit) for the workshop presentation. Please follow the Springer-Verlag, author's guidelines for more information on submission. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. All full papers are to be submitted in PDF, postscript or MS word version electronically to: hybrid_at_softcomputing.net

Hard copies should be sent only if electronic submission is not possible. All papers will be peer reviewed by two independent referees of the international program committee of HIS'01. All accepted papers will published in the proceedings of the Workshop by Springer-Verlag, Germany.


                         Important Dates
