32nd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks
ICANN 2023
https://e-nns.org/icann2023
Dates: 26th to 29th of September 2023
=======================================================================
The International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) is the annual flagship conference of the European Neural Network Society (ENNS). In 2023 the School of Engineering of Democritus University of Thrace, Greece, will organize ICANN 2023. This will be held at Astoria Capsis Hotel at Heraklion city, Crete, Greece from 26th to 29th of September 2023.
The conference will be organized as a HYBRID event.

Deep Learning, Neural Network Theory, Neural Network Models, Graphical Models, Bayesian Networks, Kernel Methods, Generative Models, Information Theoretic Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Relational Learning, Dynamical Models, Recurrent Networks, Ethics of AI
Brain Inspired Computing:
Cognitive Models, Computational Neuroscience, Self-Organization, Neural Control and Planning, Hybrid Neural-Symbolic Architectures, Neural Dynamics, Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Informatics, Perception and Action, Spiking Neural Networks
Neural Applications for:
Bioinformatics, Biomedicine, Intelligent Robotics, Neurorobotics, Language Processing, Speech Processing, Image Processing, Sensor Fusion, Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Neural Agents, Brain-Computer Interaction, Neuromorphic Computing and Edge AI, Evolutionary Neural Networks
CALL FOR PAPERS
All scientific communications presented at ICANN 2023 will be reviewed and scientifically evaluated by a panel of experts. The conference will feature two categories of communications:
– oral communications (15’+5′)
– poster communications.
Authors willing to present original contributions in either oral or poster category may submit:
– A full paper of maximum 12 pages (including references) to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series with individual DOI.
– An extended abstract of maximum 4 pages to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, without indexing.
In case the number of requested oral presentations is larger than the available slots the ICANN scientific committee will select which papers will be reassigned to a poster session. This selection will be based on the coherence of the program and is totally independent of the category of submission.
SPECIAL SESSIONS
ICANN 2023 will host three special sessions:
– Neurorobotics (track NRR 2023)
– Recent Advances in Spiking Neural Networks (track ARNN 2023)
– The challenge of errors, stability, robustness, and accuracy in deep neural networks (track ESRA in DNN 2023)
To submit a paper to one of the special sessions, please select the respective track in the submission system. Please find more details about the special sessions at: https://e-nns.org/icann2023/conference-programme/special-sessions/
SUBMISSION DEADLINE (EXTENDED)
– Full paper and extended abstract submission: Apr. 19, 2023
BEST PAPER AWARDS
ENNS will sponsor a maximum of four best paper awards. All awards will be presented during the final ceremony.
TRAVEL GRANTS
The European Neural Network Society sponsors a number of Student Travel Grants covering part of the costs for attending ICANN. Details will be provided on the conference website.
