Student Session: The aim of the Student Session in the 4th International Workshop on Computational Intelligence and Applications is to give an opportunity to students at any level (Bachelor, Master, and PhD students) to present and discuss their work in progress with a possibility to get feedback from senior researchers. Papers co-authored by non-students will be accepted. The Student Session papers should describe original, unpublished work, completed or in progress, that demonstrates insight, creativity, and promise, according to the author's instructions in the Workshop. No previously published papers should be submitted. In order to present a paper at the Student Session, at least one student of each accepted paper has to register and present at the session. The author(s) for excellent paper will receive the certificate of award by the program committee. Prospective authors are invited to submit their entry and full paper(s) electronically to Organization Committee : ml-ieee-smc-hiroshima-ws [atmark] hiroshima-u.ac.jp The entry will include following information: 1) Title of the paper, 2) Author(s)’ name, 3) Affiliation(s), 4) E-mail address, 5) Phone/FAX number, 6) Keyword(s), and 7) Session (General Session / Student Session ) Please select “Student Session” here.

Software Contest: The special session for software
contest will be held in the 4th International Workshop on Computational
Intelligence and Applications 2008 (IWCIA 2008). The software contest has 2
kinds of sessions: General Software
Contest Session and Data Mining
Competitive Session. The software contest will conclude
with some award ceremony. [General
Software Contest Session] This session will take a
competition for software applications with Java, C/C++, and so on at any
platform such as mobile, Windows and Linux. The aim of this event is to give
exposure to great smart software applications that don't have as much
exposure and awareness as they deserve. The top software applications will be
determined by a combination of experts and voting by the workshop attendees.
The software developers who will present their work at this session must show
the demo of development software. If you would like to submit to this part of
software contest, please feel free to ask the Organization
Committee: ml-ieee-smc-hiroshima-ws [atmark] hiroshima-u.ac.jp. The authors in the
general software contest must submit an extended abstract. (templates: LaTeX format, Microsoft Office Word format) [Data
Mining Competitive Session] Medical databases are large and
complicated. They consist of unfixed terms and ambiguous values, and often
contain many deficits in the data. Moreover, it is necessary to consider
relationships among multiple items and secular changes in the data. We know the
difficulty of handling such medical databases, but we are expected to get
knowledge from the databases to propose good health strategies. We would like
to collect some papers regarding data mining and knowledge acquisition in
medical databases. Especially, in this session, we have a plan to compare the validity or effectiveness of submitted data mining methods by using the same medical database. The database consists of more than 10,000 records related to heart disease. In this session, we will find outstanding points in proposed algorithms of data mining and knowledge acquisition (classification capability, knowledge representation capability, and so on). If you would like to submit the software contest, please feel free to ask the Organization Committee: ml-ieee-smc-hiroshima-ws [atmark] hiroshima-u.ac.jp. The authors in this data mining session must submit a paper according to the author's instructions in the Workshop. (templates: LaTeX format, Microsoft Office Word format) Important Dates and Registration Fee. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
