33rd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks
ICANN 2024

[website to be announced]

Dates: 17th to 20th of September 2024
=======================================================================

The International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) is the annual flagship conference of the European Neural Network Society (ENNS). In 2024 the conference will be hosted by the swiss AI lab IDSIA and it will be held at the USI & SUPSI Campus Est, Lugano-Viganello, Switzerland.

CONFERENCE TOPICS
ICANN 2023 is a conference featuring tracks in Brain Inspired Computing, Machine Learning, and Artificial Neural Networks, with strong cross-disciplinary interactions and applications. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes:

Machine Learning:
Deep Learning, Neural Network Theory, Neural Network Models, Graphical Models, Bayesian Networks, Kernel Methods, Generative Models, Information Theoretic Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Relational Learning, Dynamical Models, Recurrent Networks, Ethics of AI

Brain Inspired Computing:
Cognitive Models, Computational Neuroscience, Self-Organization, Neural Control and Planning, Hybrid Neural-Symbolic Architectures, Neural Dynamics, Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Informatics, Perception and Action, Spiking Neural Networks

Neural Applications for:
Bioinformatics, Biomedicine, Intelligent Robotics, Neurorobotics, Language Processing, Speech Processing, Image Processing, Sensor Fusion, Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Neural Agents, Brain-Computer Interaction, Neuromorphic Computing and Edge AI, Evolutionary Neural Networks

CALL FOR PAPERS
All scientific communications presented at ICANN 2024 will be reviewed and scientifically evaluated by a panel of experts. The conference will feature two categories of communications:
- oral communications (15'+5')
- poster communications.

Authors willing to present original contributions in either oral or poster category may submit:
- A full paper of maximum 12 pages (including references) to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series with individual DOI.
- An extended abstract of maximum 4 pages to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, without indexing.

In case the number of requested oral presentations is larger than the available slots the ICANN scientific committee will select which papers will be reassigned to a poster session. This selection will be based on the coherence of the program and is totally independent of the category of submission.

IMPORTANT DATES
- Deadline for special sessions and workshop proposals: Febuary 1, 2023
- Opening for submissions: February 15, 2023
- Deadline for full paper submission: March 15, 2023
- Notication of acceptance: May 20, 2023
