ISNN2009 CALL FOR PAPERS
The Sixth International Symposium on Neural Networks (ISNN 2009) will be
held in Wuhan, following the successes of previous events. Composed of
three parts (Wuchang, Hankou, and Hanyang), Wuhan is the capital of Hubei
Province in central China with a long history and rich heritages. During
the warrior-states period (481-221 BC), Wuhan is a part in Chu Kingdom It
began to prosper as a commercial town about two-thousand years ago, when
it was called Yingwuzhou (Parrot beach). During the Song Dynasty
(960-1279
AD), the region became one of the most prosperous commercial centers
along
the Yangtze River. By the end of the Ming Dynasty (1368-164 AD), Hankou
was one of the four most famous cities in China. Today, Wuhan is an
educational and industrial center and a hub of water and rail
trans****tation in China.
ISNN 2009 aims to provide a high-level international forum for
scientists,
engineers, and educators to present the state of the art of neural
network
research and applications in related fields. The symposium will feature
plenary speeches given by world renowned scholars, regular sessions with
broad coverage, and special sessions focusing on popular topics.
Prospective authors are invited to contribute high-quality papers to ISNN
2009. In addition, proposals for special sessions within the technical
scopes of the symposium are solicited. Special sessions, to be organized
by internationally recognized experts, aim to bring together researchers
in special focused topics. Papers submitted for special sessions are to
be
peer-reviewed with the same criteria used for the contributed papers.
Researchers interested in organizing special sessions are invited to
submit formal proposals to ISNN 2009. A special session proposal should
include the session title, a brief description of the scope and
motivation, names, contact information and brief biographical information
on the organizers.
Authors are invited to submit full-length papers (10 pages maximum) by
the
submission deadline through the online submission system. Potential
organizers are also invited to enlist five or more papers with cohesive
topics to form special sessions. The submission of a paper implies that
the paper is original and has not been submitted under review or is not
copyright-protected elsewhere and will be presented by an author if
accepted. All submitted papers will be refereed by experts in the field
based on the criteria of originality, significance, quality, and clarity.
The authors of accepted papers will have an op****tunity to revise their
papers and take consideration of the referees' comments and suggestions.
Papers presented at ISNN 2009 will be published in the EI-indexed
proceedings (Springer LNCS) and some selected good papers will be
included
in special issues of several SCI-indexed journals.
