CALL FOR PAPERS WILF 2005 Sixth International Workshop on Fuzzy Logic Crema (Milan), Italy -- September 15-17, 2005 WILF 2005 is the 6th edition of what started out and was formerly known as the Italian Workshop on Fuzzy Logic. WILF 2005 is an international workshop on the theoretical, experimental, and applied fuzzy and, more generally, soft-computing techniques and systems which brings together researchers and developers from both Academia and Industry to report on the latest scientific and theoretical advances, to discuss and debate major issues and to demonstrate state-of-the-art systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 1. General techniques and algorithms: - Fuzzy Sets; - Rough Sets; - Possibility Theory; - Fuzzy Logic; - Fuzzy Systems; - Neuro-Fuzzy Systems; - Representation of Vague and Imprecise Knowledge; - Fuzzy Evolutionary Algorithms; - Fuzzy Pattern Recognition; - Fuzzy Data Fusion. 2. Applications: - Bioinformatics; - Broadcasting; - Control; - Communications; - Information Retrieval; - Intelligent Resource Management; - Knowledge Management; - Medical; - Opto-mechatronics; - Remote Sensing; - Robotics; - Semantic Web - Speech Analysis; - Television; - Telepresence; - Virtual Reality. 3. Implementations: - Analog and Digital Circuits and Systems; - Architectures and VLSI Hardware; - Programmable Processors; - Commercial Software. A special session on "Soft Computing in Image Processing" will be organized in cooperation with the SCIP group (http://fuzzy.rug.ac.be/SCIP). Important Dates: Submission deadline: 29 April 2005 Notification of acceptance: 20 June 2005 Camera ready papers due: 15 July 2005 Workshop: 15 September 2005 Submission: Manuscripts, prepared according to the Springer LNCS format (instructions downloadable from http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/instruct/typeinst.pdf) may not be longer than 6 pages, including a cover sheet stating (1) Paper title, (2) Keyword(s), (3) Authors’ names and affiliations, (4) Contact Author’s name and contact details including telephone/fax numbers and e-mail address.
