The 44th ISCIE International Symposium on Stochastic Systems Theory and Its
Applications (SSS’12) will be held on November 1–2, 2011, at Kokushikan University,Tokyo, Japan. The technical program will cover the general topic of stochastic systems
and its applications, including but not be limited to the following subjects:
 Modeling, Filtering and Control of Stochastic Systems and Stochastic Processes Analysis of Stochastic Systems and Stochastic Processes
 System Identification and Parameter Estimation
 Time Series Analysis and Spectral Estimation
 Signal Detection and Statistical Signal Processing
 Stochastic Optimization Methods and Evolutionary Methods
 Mathematical Finance Fault Detection and Diagnosis
 Control of Networks
 Chaos and Fractal
 Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems
 Image Processing
 Pattern Recognition, Computer Vision and 3-D Information Processing Probabilistic Robotics
 Medical and Biomedical Systems
 Statistical Methods for GNSS Navigation
 Applications in Engineering related to Stochastic Processes and Stochastic SystemsPapers Submission:Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts, which must be written in English
and must be received by July 31, 2012. Extended abstracts should not exceed two A4pages with 25mm margins on all sides, in one column format, and with 10-point fonts orlarger. Please include the title, author names, affiliations, and addresses on the top of thefirst page of the extended abstract. The extended abstract should be prepared in PDF
format, and it should be submitted electronically on the Web.
Authors will be advised regarding acceptance of the extended abstract by August 31,
2012. The authors of accepted papers are requested to submit the manuscripts for theproceedings following the instructions available in the proceedings page. Themanuscripts should be prepared in PDF format and submitted electronically on the Web
by October 25, 2012. The maximum length of each manuscript including both text andillustrations will be ten pages (about 7500 words). In order to assure high-quality of theproceedings, all manuscripts will be reviewed and only accepted ones will be included init.
