Call for Papers

This special track will be devoted to neural networks and data mining with the aim of presenting new and important contributions in these areas. Papers and contributions are encouraged for any work related to neural networks, data mining, or the intersection thereof.

Topics of interest may include (but are not limited to):

Applications such as Pattern Recognition, Applications, Generative AI methods and applications, Control and Process Monitoring, Biomedical Applications, Robotics, Text Mining, Diagnostic Problems, Power Systems, Signal Processing; Intelligence analysis, medical and health applications, text, video, and multi-media mining, E-commerce and web data, financial data analysis, cybersecurity, remote sensing, earth sciences, bioinformatics, and astronomy.

Neural networks such as new developments in Back Propagation, RBF, SVM, Deep Learning, Ensemble Methods, Kernel Approaches; Hybrid approaches such as Neural Networks/Genetic Algorithms, Causal Nets trained with Backpropagation, Neural Network/Fuzzy Logic and Acceleration of neural network models via software or hardware.

Other modeling algorithms such as hidden Markov models, decision trees, statistical methods, or probabilistic methods; case studies in areas of application, or over different algorithms and approaches; graph modeling, pattern discovery, and anomaly detection; feature extraction and selection; post-processing techniques such as visualization, summarization, or trending; preprocessing and data reduction;and knowledge engineering or warehousing.

Submission Guidelines
 Papers must follow the FLAIRS template guidelines (https://www.flairs-38.info/call-for-papers) and be submitted as a PDF through the EasyChair conference system. (Do NOT use a fake name for your EasyChair login; your EasyChair account information is hidden from reviewers.)

FLAIRS will not accept any paper which, at the time of submission, is under review for or has already been published or accepted for publication in a journal or another conference. Authors are also required not to submit their papers else where during FLAIRS's review period. These restrictions apply only to journals and conferences, not to workshops and similar specialized presentations with a limited audience and without archival proceedings. Authors will be required to confirm that their submissions conform to these requirements at the time of submission.

Conference Proceedings
Papers will be refereed and all accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings.
