This event will be held in June 2027 in Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife (Spain). This will be the 19th edition of IWANN, following on from an uninterrupted sequence of a staggering 36 years.

This biennial meeting seeks to provide a discussion forum for scientists, engineers, educators and students about the latest discoveries and realizations in the foundations, theory, models and applications of systems inspired by nature, as well as in emerging areas related to the above items, using computational intelligence methodologies. As in previous editions, we strongly emphasize the wide range of topics comprised under the umbrella of IWANN2027, from which we present a non-exhaustive list of areas of interest for the congress to get a flavour of IWANN27’s orientation:

Mathematical and theoretical methods in computational intelligence
Deep Learning
Learning and adaptation
Emulation of cognitive functions
Bio-inspired systems and neuro-engineering
Advanced topics in computational intelligence
Agent based models
Time series forecasting
Robotics and cognitive systems
Interactive systems and BCI
Machine Learning for 4.0 industry solutions
AI Health
AI in 5G technology
Social and Ethical aspects of AI
General Applications of AI

The approach will be both theoretical and practical, through invited talks, tutorials, workshops, posters, presentation of demos and functional prototypes. Besides, we offer the possibility to carry out a limited number of virtual presentations for those who want to participate but have serious difficulties to travel. The proceedings will include all the presented communications to the conference. As in previous editions of IWANN, we are arranging the publication of the proceedings with Springer-Verlag as Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, and the books will be available shortly after the Congress in order to allow the authors to incorporate suggestions and improvements from the presentations. It is also foreseen the publication of extended versions of selected papers in special issues of several prestigious journals. Previous congresses led to special issues of Neural Computing and Applications, PLoS One, PeerJ Computer Science, and Neural Processing Letters. We are working to have at least the same collaborations.
