ANNPR 2018 - 8th IAPR TC3 International Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks in Pattern Recognition (ANNPR 2018)

8th IAPR TC3 International Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks in
Pattern Recognition (ANNPR 2018)
September 19-21, 2018
DIISM, Università di Siena, Tuscany (Italy)
URL:http://annpr2018.diism.unisi.it/
Sponsored by the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR)
The Workshop proceedings will be published in the Springer LNAI series
ANNPR 2018 invites papers that present original work in the areas of
neural networks and machine learning oriented to pattern recognition,
focusing on their algorithmic, theoretical, and applied aspects. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:
Methodological Issues
- Supervised, partially supervised, and unsupervised learning
- Feed-forward, recurrent, and competitive neural nets
- Kernel machines
- Hierarchical modular architectures and hybrid systems
- Combination of neural networks and Hidden Markov models
- Multiple classifier systems and ensemble methods
- Probabilistic graphical models
- Deep architectures
Applications to Pattern Recognition
- Image processing and segmentation
- Handwritten recognition and Document analysis
- Sensor-fusion and multi-modal processing
- Feature extraction, dimensionality reduction
- Clustering and vector quantization
- Speech and speaker recognition
- Data, text, and web mining
- Bioinformatics/Cheminformatics
ANNPR2018 is organized by the Technical Committee 3 (IAPR TC3) on Neural
Networks & Computational Intelligence of the International Association for
Pattern Recognition (IAPR). As such, we particularly encourage submissions
that fit the Manifesto and the research directions of the TC3 (see
http://iapr-tc3.diism.unisi.it/Research.html)
