CALL FOR PAPERS

WILF 2005
Sixth International Workshop on Fuzzy Logic and Applications 
  
 
Crema (Milan), Italy -- September 15-17, 2005

Conference Website: http://dsa.uniparthenope.it/wilf2005


WILF 2005 is at its 6th edition. WILF 2005 is an international workshop on the theoretical, experimental, and applied fuzzy and, more generally, soft-computing techniques and systems which
brings together researchers and developers from both Academia and Industry to report on the latest scientific and theoretical advances, to discuss and debate major issues and to demonstrate
state-of-the-art systems.
The scientific program will include, besides two invited talks, contributed papers that will be presented in plenary oral or poster sessions. Original and unpublished papers on BV&AI 2005 main research areas and related topics are welcome.  
 
Topics:

1. General techniques and algorithms:
Fuzzy Sets; Rough Sets;  Possibility Theory; Fuzzy Logic; Fuzzy Systems; Neuro-Fuzzy Systems; Representation of Vague and Imprecise Knowledge; Fuzzy Evolutionary Algorithms; Fuzzy Pattern Recognition; Fuzzy Data Fusion.

2. Applications:
Bioinformatics; Broadcasting; Control; Communications; Information Retrieval; Intelligent Resource Management; Knowledge Management; Medical; Opto-mechatronics; Remote Sensing; Robotics; Semantic Web; Speech Analysis; Television; Telepresence; Virtual Reality.

3. Implementations:
Analog and Digital Circuits and Systems; Architectures and VLSI Hardware; Programmable Processors; Commercial Software.

Two special sessions on "Soft Computing in Image Processing" and "Bioinformatics" are planned.

Important Dates:
Submission deadline: 13 June
 2005    
Notification of acceptance: 15 July 2005
Camera ready papers due: 1 September
2005
Workshop: 15-17 September 2005

Submission:
Manuscripts, prepared according to the Springer LNCS format (instructions downloadable from
