IWANN 2017 - 14th International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (IWANN2017)

14th International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (IWANN2017), we are pleased to invite you to participate in this event that will be held on June 14-16, 2017 in Cádiz, (Spain).
This biennial meeting seeks to provide a discussion forum for scientists, engineers, educators and students about the latest discoveries and realizations in the foundations, theory, models and applications of systems inspired on nature, using computational intelligence methodologies, as well as in emerging areas related to the above items. As in previous editions, we strongly emphasize the wide range of topics comprised under the umbrella of IWANN2017 and, in particular, we focus on trending topics such as Deep Learning, Human-centred Computing and developments encompassed in and related to the Human Brain Project.
This approach will be both theoretical and practical, through invited talks, tutorials, workshops, presentation of demos and functional prototypes. To emphasize this interactive atmosphere a competition will be organized where a problem will be posed to be solved on-site by young researchers. Besides, we offer the possibility to carry out a limited number of virtual presentations for those who want to participate but they have serious difficulties on travelling.
The proceedings will include all the presented communications to the conference. As in previous editions of IWANN, we are arranging the publication of the proceedings with Springer-Verlag as Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, and the books will be available on-site.
It is also foreseen the publication of an extended version of selected papers in a special issue on several specialized journals such as Neurocomputing (Elsevier), and Neural Processing Letters (Springer).
