NAFIPS 2017 -- SPECIAL SESSION AND EVENTS

Proposals for Special Sessions aiming at fundamentals, algorithms, and innovative applications of fuzzy sets and soft computing are welcome. Submission of proposals should include a short description of the session, its relevance to the NAFIPS Conference, and a list of potential contributors. Special sessions will be open to all participants. Organizers of Special Sessions will be responsible for a reviewing process.

If you would like to propose a special session, the deadline for doing so is March 21, 2017. You can also contact the local organizers if you have any question.
