IJCNN is the premier international conference on neural networks theory, analysis and applications. Our conference has been organized by the International Neural Networks Society (INNS) and sponsored jointly by INNS and the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society (CIS). This is an exemplary collaboration between the two leading societies on neural networks to create the flagship conference, under the leadership of INNS President Nik Kasabov and CIS President David Fogel. This mutually beneficial cooperation provides solid foundations for future extensive development of the field.
