Chiang Mai, Thailand

Sponsors/organizers: The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Chiang Mai University, King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi

Technical cosponsor: IEEE Computational Intelligence Society

The Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI2016)  will be held in Chiang Mai, Thailand during February 14-16, 2016, as a sequence to IWACI2008 (Macao), IWACI2009 (Mexico City), IWACI2010 (Suzhou), IWACI2011 (Wuhan),  ICACI2012 (Nanjing),  ICACI2013 (Hangzhou), and ICACI2015 (Mount Wuyi).

ICACI2016 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists, engineers, and educators to present the state-of-the-art research and applications in computational intelligence. The conference will feature plenary speeches given by world renowned scholars, regular sessions with broad coverage, and special sessions focusing on popular topics. In addition, best paper awards will be given during the conference. The proceedings of ICACI2016 will be submitted to the IEEExplore Database and to be indexed by EI Compendex. Moreover, selected papers will be published in special issues of related journals. The conference will favor papers representing advanced theories and innovative applications in computational intelligence.

Prospective authors are invited to contribute high-quality papers to ICACI2016. In addition, proposals for special sessions within the technical scopes of the conference are solicited. Special sessions, to be organized by internationally recognized experts, aim to bring together researchers in special focused topics. 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. Researchers interested in organizing special sessions are invited to submit formal proposals to xlhu@mail.tsinghua.edu.cn.
