FUZZ-IEEE 2015 - 2015 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE 2015)

2015 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE 2015), one of the leading international conferences in the field of fuzzy sets and systems, will be held in Istanbul, Turkey.
The first paper on fuzzy sets was published by Professor Lotfi Zadeh in 1965. Since then fuzzy sets and systems have witnessed a tremendous advancement both in theory and in fielded applications. Over these fifty years fuzzy systems have found numerous successful applications in diverse fields including control, robotics, intelligent systems, medical and satellite image analysis, consumer electronics and the list goes on. Fuzzy sets have also strongly influenced research and development in other areas of computational intelligence leading to many hybrid systems. Fuzzy sets have opened up new horizons in thinking, research and development and it will certainly guide us into another half century of progress. The year 2015, the 50th anniversary of fuzzy sets, is a landmark year in the history of fuzzy sets and systems. Fuzzy-IEEE 2015 is geared to celebrate the 50th anniversary with many dedicated programs including special tracks, plenaries and panels. Fuzz-IEEE 2015 is going to be a memorable event. We heartily invite all computational Intelligence researchers to be a witness to this event.
Istanbul, being a natural bridge between Europe and Asia, is one of the best places to organize this event. It is the largest city of Turkey and the third largest city in the world. We are look forward to welcoming you all in Istanbul for FuzzIEEE2015 as well as for the celebration of the 50th anniversary of fuzzy sets.
Scope

In addition to regular oral and poster presentations, the conference will include a full program of tutorials, workshops, panels, special sessions and keynote presentations. Full details of the submission process will be made available on the conference website. Conference proceedings will be included in IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Authors whose papers win the best paper awards of FUZZ-IEEE 2015 will be invited to submit the enhanced/extended versions of conference papers to IEEE TFS (IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems). Extended versions of selected papers will also be considered for possible
publication in the special issues of several high impact journals.
