International Seminar on
Computational Intelligence 2006
Tijuana Mexico, October 9-11, 2006
General Chair: Prof.
Dr. Patricia Melin, Tijuana Institute of Technology -Mexico
Program Chairs:
Prof. Dr. Eduardo Gomez-Ramirez La Salle University, Mexico,
Prof. Dr. Oscar Castillo, Tijuana Institute of Technology -Mexico
Description
The International Seminar will consist of papers
describing research work that integrate different Computational Intelligence
(CI) methodologies for the development of hybrid intelligent systems. CI
methodologies at the moment include (at least) Neural Networks, Fuzzy Logic,
Genetic Algorithms, Intelligent Agents, and Chaos Theory. The use of
intelligent techniques, like neural networks, fuzzy logic and genetic
algorithms, for real-world problems is now widely accepted. However, still the
performance of any of these techniques can be improved, in many situations, by
using them in conjunction with other techniques. For example, genetic
algorithms can be used to optimize the design of a neural network for time
series prediction, or fuzzy logic can be used to combine the information from
expert neural modules, just to mention two cases. Also, mathematical methods,
like the ones from Chaos and Fractal Theory, can be used in conjunction with
intelligent techniques to improve the performance of hybrid systems for
real-world applications. The international seminar will consist of papers
addressing these hybrid approaches and similar ones, either theoretically or
for real-world applications. Also, distinguished internationally recognized
invited speakers will give lectures on the main areas of CI. The seminar is
intended primarily for researchers and graduate students working on these
research areas.
Topics of interest
(not limited to)
1. Successful
new applications to real-world problems of CI techniques that are found to
achieve better results than conventional techniques. In this case, special
attention should be given to the metrics used to compare CI techniques with
conventional ones.
2. Developments
of innovative hybrid methods combining CI techniques and conventional
techniques. In this case, the problems to be considered in these papers may not
be as complex as the ones in the previous point, but the authors have to
explain very carefully how their proposed method could be used, in the future,
to solve real-world problems.
3. Papers
considering original research on new CI architectures, models or techniques are
also welcome, but the authors would have to make a detailed description of how
their proposed approach is compared with other related approaches.

Format and Submission Procedure
Papers must be send by email,
by the prospective authors, to the General Chair and the Program Chairs. The
paper must be send as a PDF or word attachment with their email message. The
papers will then be distributed to the
Reviewers for evaluation according to their originality, technical soundness,
writing, etc. (At least two reviewers per paper). Notifications of acceptance
will then be send to the authors by email. The authors of accepted papers would
then be asked to present it at the seminar, and send their registration form by
the due date. The Proceedings (In CD form) will be prepared for distribution at
the Seminar. Selected papers will be considered, after
improvements, for a Special Issue in Journal of Engineering Letters or
International Journal of Non-Linear Studies.
