CALL FOR PAPERS

Special Session on Soft Computing in Medical Informatics part of The
11th European Conference on Artificial Neural Networks in Engineering,
27 – 29 August 2009, University of East London:
http://www.uel.ac.uk/eann2009/

OVERVIEW:
The aim of this workshop is to bring together some of the latest
developments resulting from the application of soft computing
techniques to medical informatics. By "soft computing", we mean
computing techniques that tolerate systems and environments involving
imprecision, uncertainty or approximation. These methods include
machine learning, probabilistic reasoning, evolutionary computation,
optimization, and fuzzy systems. Given the neural dimension of the
parent conference, papers will be expected to have a
neural-computational component.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
Papers must be submitted using the same procedure as required for the
main conference, but papers must be marked "Special Session on Soft
Computing in Medical Informatics".

PUBLICATION:
Authors of the best papers will be invited to extend their papers (if
required) for publication in a journal special issue to be announced.

IMPORTANT DATES:
3 April 2009: Paper submission
1 May 2009: Notification of acceptance and reviewers comments
12 June 2009: Submission of final revised paper

CO-ORDINATORS:
Richard Dybowski & Aloysius Edoh
