The 13th International Conference on Intelligent Data Engineering and
Automated Learning (IDEAL 2012) will be held in the beautiful costal
city Natal, Brazil, 29-31 Aug 2012.
IDEAL is an established, annual international conference dedicated to
emerging and challenging topics in intelligent data analysis, data
mining and their associated learning paradigms and systems. The
conference has enjoyed great successes in recent years such as IDEAL
2011 in Norwich, IDEAL 2010 (Paisley), IDEAL 2009 (Burgos), IDEAL 2008
(Daejeon) and IDEAL 2007 (Birmingham).
Natal is the capital of the state of Rio Grande do Norte, a city with

the largest cashew tree in the world and get to know the more than 20
natural beaches with heavenly views of dunes and a clean calm sea.
Natal is among the most sought after destinations in the Northeast

Hotel and Convention Center, a beach hotel with 166 apartments,
located at Via Costeira (imiraplaza.com.br).
