30th International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks

ICANN 2021

https://e-nns.org/icann2021

Fully Online

=============================================================

The International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) is the

annual flagship conference of the European Neural Network Society (ENNS).

In 2021 the Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics (FMPI), Comenius

University in Bratislava, together with the Slovak Society for Cognitive

Science, organize the 30th ICANN Conference from the 14th to the 17th of

September 2021 in Bratislava, Slovakia.

ICANN 2021 will be held fully online.

CONFERENCE TOPICS

ICANN 2021 is a dual-track conference featuring tracks in Brain Inspired

Computing and Machine Learning and Artificial Neural Networks, with strong

cross-disciplinary interactions and applications. All research fields dealing

with Neural Networks will be present at the conference. A non-exhaustive list

of topics includes:

Machine Learning: 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.

Brain Inspired Computing: Cognitive models, Computational Neuroscience,

Self-organisation, Reinforcement Learning, Neural Control and Planning, Hybrid

Neural-Symbolic Architectures, Neural Dynamics, Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain

Informatics, Perception and action.

Neural Applications for: Bioinformatics, Biomedicine, Intelligent Robotics,

Neurorobotics, Language Processing, Image Processing, Sensor Fusion, Pattern

Recognition, Data Mining, Neural Agents, Brain-Computer Interaction, Neural

Hardware, Evolutionary Neural Networks.

CALL FOR CONTRIBUTED SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATIONS

All scientific communications presented at ICANN 2021 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.

Call for Special Sessions

ICANN 2021 organizers cordially invite internationally recognised experts to

organise Special sessions and workshops within the general scope of the

conference. Special Session Proposal request should be sent to

icann2021@fmph.uniba.sk

CALL FOR PAPERS

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.

The number of oral slots is limited. 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 programme and is totally independent of

the category of submission.

Submission of communications will be on the conference website:

https://e-nns.org/icann2021/

BEST PAPER AWARDS

ENNS will sponsor a maximum of four best paper awards.

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.
