CFP: IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence for Financial Engineering and Economics (CIFEr 2019) (8 Dec)

EEE CIFEr, Computational Intelligence for Financial Engineering and Economics is the major collaboration between the professional engineering and financial communities, and is one of the leading forums for new technologies and applications in the intersection of computational intelligence and financial engineering and economics with a history starting from 1990s.

We deeply believe that besides inviting our prestigious academic scholars, the CIFEr'19 focusing on the theme of powering financial industries with AI will be unique and special in its connecting international computational intelligence communities with many booming Fintech companies with AI innovative applications and more than 8,000 hedge funds with AUM Ten Trillions of Chinese Yuan in Shenzhen and other cities in China.
