Combining research and education

The IEEE Computational Intelligence Society strongly promotes education through a number of  diversified initiatives. More specifically, multimedia tutorials are being identified and recorded by exploiting keynotes, tutorial and webinars given by our senior members in flagship conferences.

Research grants are provided to facilitate research experiences of our graduate student members while other initiatives are taken into account to both serve the computational intelligence community and practitioners interested in computational intelligence and applications. Among these activities there are: student games-based competitions, pre-college educational programs, development of suggested university curricula, continuing education programs (especially for people in industry) and creation of the educational archive.

My vision as Vice President for Education can be read in the following editorial


Special Issue on Learning

Using a computational model to learn under various environments has been a well-researched field that produced relevant results; unfortunately, the majority of these efforts rely on three fundamental assumptions: i) there is a sufficient and representative data set to configure and assess the model performance; ii) data are drawn from a fixed – albeit unknown – distribution; and iii) samples are mostly supposed to be independent. Alas, all these assumptions often do not hold in many real-world applications. The timely special issue discusses the state-of-the-art and latest results on detecting and adapting to changes in underlying data distributions.

International Conference on Intelligent
Control and Information Processing 2013

4th International Conference on Intelligent Control and Information Processing (ICICIP 2013), organized by Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, will be held in Beijing, China, 9-11 June 2013. ICICIP 2013 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists, engineers, and educators working in the areas of intelligent information processing and control to present state-of-the-art sciences and technologies and their applications.

IEEE WCCI 14

The IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (IEEE WCCI) is the largest technical event in the field of computational intelligence. IEEE WCCI 2014, to be help in Beijing, China, 6-11 July 2014, will host three conferences: The 2014 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN 2014), the 2014 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE 2014), and the 2014 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (IEEE CEC 2014).

IEEE WCCI 2014 will engage in cross-fertilization among the three big areas and provide a stimulating forum for scientists, engineers, educators, and students from all over the world to discuss and present their research findings on computational intelligence.
