The 14th International Conference on Neural Information Processing
(ICONIP2007) will bring together researchers, scientists, educators,
engineers, practitioners, and industrialists from the international
communities in the field of neural networks. Since the first formation
of the Asia Pacific Neural Network Assembly (APNNA)
in Nagoya, Japan in 1993 and the very first ICONIP 1994 in Seoul,
Korea, this prestigious event organized by regional active academicians
has provided an annual forum to explore and exchange ideas on neural
networks and related disciplines. ICONIP 2007 is the second conference
in Japan, the first of which was held at Kokura, Kitakyushu, Japan in
1998, and the fourteenth conference in the series of ICONIP conferences
that will be held at the newly established Kitakyushu Science and Research Park in Wakamatsu, Kitakyushu, Japan. The host university of this conference, , Kyushu Institute of Technology , is promoting the 21st century COE program , the title of which is “World of Brain Computing Interwoven out of Animals and Robots” by the support of MEXT (Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) and JSPS
(Japan Society for the Promotion of Science) from October 2003 to March
2008. Thus the Brain IT special session is organized by the project to
present their current research results and demonstrations.
The conference includes plenary sessions, keynote lectures,
tutorials, oral/poster sessions and demonstrations on different topics
related neural information processing, and also social events such as
international music festival and banquet.
