Introduction/Call for Papers
Technologies in the research field of computer intelligence have made great progressin recent decades. One of the recent approaches to computer intelligence iscomputational intelligence, a set of nature-inspired computational methodologies andapplications. Many real world problems are not considered to be well-posed problems
mathematically. For such problems, attempts of mathematical approaches to findsolutions met some difficulties, but new and innovative computational intelligenceapproaches for finding optimal solutions to such problems have been proposed andmany of these innovative technologies are now becoming popular in the field ofcomputer science. Many researchers in the research field have made great efforts todevelop methodologies for optimization, classification, ambiguity, agents, etc, andthese research results have had great influence in the greater field of computer science.
Driven by such motivation, the innovative technologies in computer intelligence areproposed not only in areas of artificial neural networks, evolutionary computation,
fuzzy theories, swarm intelligence, and immune systems but also in new paradigms
such as emergence in intelligent agent based system, human computer interaction
system such as affective computing. With the advancement of computer hardware
providing more powerful computing environments, researchers have been able tochallenge solving larger and more complex problems in real-life problems such as theanalysis of 3D protein structure and medical databases.
Indicative Topics/Areas* Neural Networks, * Evolutionary Computation, * Fuzzy Theory, * Ant Colony

Important Dates
April 7, 2014: Deadline for submission of full-length papers to special sessions.
May 25, 2014: Acceptance/Rejection Notification.
July 9, 2014: Final camera-ready papers due in electronic form.
Submission
Manuscripts for a Special Session should NOT be submitted in duplication to any
other regular or special sessions and should be submitted to SMC 2014 main
conference online submission system on SMC 2014 conference website.
All submitted papers of Special Sessions have to undergo the same review process(three completed reviews per paper). The technical reviewers for each Special
Session paper will be members of the SMC 2014 Program Committee and qualified
peer-reviewers to be nominated by the Special Session organizers.
