CALL FOR PAPERS: ICO 2018

1^st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT COMPUTING & OPTIMIZATION 2018 (ICO2018)

Date: 4 - 5 October 2018

Website: https://www.icico.info/

SCOPE

Innovative optimization approaches have attracted many research scientists, decision makers, managers, executives, engineers, academicians, officers and practicing researchers in recent years as powerful intelligent computational techniques for solving several complex real-world problems.

The International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Optimization (ICO2018) highlights the latest research innovations and applications of algorithms designed for optimization applications within the fields of Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, Management, Finance and Economics. Focusing on a variety of methods and systems as well as practical examples, this conference is a significant resource for post graduate-level students, decision makers, and researchers in both public and private sectors who are seeking research-based methods for modeling uncertain and unpredictable real-world problems.

Topics to be discussed in this conference include (but are not limited to) the following:

Intelligent Computing and Applications: Artificial intelligence, Quantum computing, Artificial Neural Networks, Self –Organizing, Fuzzy logic, Membrane computing, Evolutionary computation, Learning theory, Probabilistic methods, Image processing Computer vision, Speech recognition, Big data, Evolutionary algorithm, Randomness Monte Carlo methods, Algorithmic probability, Chaos theory, Cryptography, Game theory, Information theory, Pattern recognition, Natural computing, Evolutionary robotics Knowledge-based system, Machine learning, Unsupervised learning, Computational finance, Computational economics, DNA computing

Optimization and Applications: Ant colony optimization, Artificial bee colony, Artificial immune systems, Artificial neural networks, Automatic computing, Bacterial foraging, Biological computing, Chaos optimization, Cloud Computing, Combinatorial Optimization, Computational intelligence, Continuous optimization, Cultural algorithms. Differential evolution, Direct search, Evolutionary computing, Fuzzy optimization, Genetic algorithms, Granular computing, Hybrid algorithms, Local and global search, Memetic algorithms, Meta-heuristic methods, Particle swarm optimization, Pattern search, Simulated annealing, Simulation and modeling, Soft computing techniques Support vector machines, Swarm intelligence, Tabu search, Variable neighborhood search

Submission Procedure:

- Papers should be in English.

- Regular papers should be up to 10 pages in length.

- Short papers should be up to 6 pages in length.

- Previously published work may not be submitted, nor may the work be concurrently submitted to any other conference or journal. Such papers will be rejected without review.

- Papers must be formatted using the SPRINGER Author's Kit. Detailed instructions and templates are available at http://www.springer.com/gp/com...

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not currently under review elsewhere. Based on TPC reviews and discussions, some papers may be accepted as 6-page short papers, in addition to the regular 10 page papers.

Proceedings Publication

The proceedings are submitted for inclusion to the leading indexing services: DBLP, Google Scholar, Thomson Scientific ISI Proceedings, EI Elsevier Engineering Index, CrossRef, Scopus, as well as Springer Book Series. The accepted and reviewed papers of ICO 2018 will be published in the SPRINGER series "Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing".
