Tutorials

The role of the tutorials is to provide a platform for a more intensive scientific exchange amongst researchers interested in a particular topic and as a meeting point for the community. Tutorials complement the depth-oriented technical sessions by providing participants with broad overviews of emerging fields. A tutorial can be scheduled for 1.5 or 3 hours.


Meet the Editor Session: Journal of Information Fusion (Elsevier), Journal Progress in Artificial Intelligence (Springer) and Journal of Grid Computing (Springer)

His current research interests include among others, soft computing (including fuzzy modeling, evolutionary algorithms and deep learning), computing with words, information fusion and decision making, and data science (including data preprocessing, prediction and big data).
Abstract

The goal of this session is to give the opportunity for all participants to meet editor-in-chiefs of A-grade journals at the main conference.
In this session the participants will have the opportunity to learn and share the latest results in these journals, learn more regarding the reviewing process and have a glance of the most important challenges on publishing scientific results including tips on how to write your article, publishing ethics and data sharing.
The editor-in-chiefs will be available to answer questions, hear ideas and discuss any comments about the journals.
