2021 3rd International Symposium om New Trends in Computational Intelligence, sponsored by the China University of Petroleum (East China), and BTOF Tech (Qingdao) Co., Ltd., China, has been successfully held in Qingdao, China during December 10-12, 2021.
In recent years, due to the tremendous success of artificial intelligence (AI) in different areas, AI and its related areas have become hot topics of research to both academia and industry. One of major successful tools of today's AI is deep neural network, and neural network is one of the main pillars of Computational Intelligence (CI). The other two main pillars of CI, Fuzzy Systems and Evolutionary computing, also play important roles in modern AI in terms of adding explainability and optimizing AI systems, respectively. Hence, this symposium on new trends in CI was very timely, even though CI has been extremely successful in numerous and diverse areas.
General Chairs of the conference,Professor Wang Jian presided over the opening ceremony
The objective of this Symposium is to bring top researchers and practitioners working in different facets of CI under one umbrella to share their knowledge and enable mutual exchange of information. This will also help promoting research in CI and its interdisciplinary frontiers, deliberation on recent research trends, and strengthen academic exchanges. This will provide a communication platform for researchers, experts, and scholars in the field of CI to communicate the latest progresses.
IEEE Life Fellow, IFSA Fellow, President-Elect of CIS, James M. Keller deliver a speech at the opening ceremony
2021 3rd International Symposium on New Trends in Computational Intelligence has been successfully held. The past three days have been fruitful. Through a wide range of 27 plenary speeches from 18 countries, we have brought top researchers and practitioners working in different facets of Computational Intelligence under one umbrella to share their knowledge and enable mutual exchange of information. There were over 200 attendees offline, and over 3000 attendees online to this Symposium.
For some of us, this Symposium has been an opportunity to meet with our old friends, for others, an opportunity to make new friends who are working on similar area. We hope that you shared your experiences and expertise with other participants from near and far, and that a cordial relationship established among us during the Symposium will further strengthen.
