Conference: IEEE Computer Society Bioinformatics Conference (call for papers)
Submitted by Mark Luo; posted on Monday, February 17, 2003 (1 comment)
|
IEEE Computer Society Bioinformatics Conference
Stanford University, Stanford, CA
August 11-14, 2003
You are invited to submit a paper to the 2003 IEEE Computer Society Bioinformatics Conference (CSB2003). The conference?s goal is to facilitate collaboration between computer scientists and biologists by presenting cutting edge computational biology research findings. While such research has an interdisciplinary character, CSB2003 emphasizes the computational aspects of bioinformatics research. Computer science papers must show biological relevance, and biology papers must stress the computational aspects of the results.
Important Dates:
- Submission date: April 1, 2003
- Acceptance date: May 19, 2003
- Final Revision date: June 14, 2003
Send e-mail queries or submissions to bioinformatics[at]computer.org

CALL FOR PAPERS
JOURNAL OF FUZZY SETS AND SYSTEMS
Special Issue on Fuzzy Sets and Systems in Bioinformatics
Guest Editors:
Dr. David Pelta, University of Granada, Spain
Dr. Natalio Krasnogor, University of Nottingham, UK
A forthcoming issue of the Journal of Fuzzy Sets and Systems will be
devoted to provide the state-of-art in the application of fuzzy sets and systems to bioinformatics, highlighting new and promising research areas.
Bioinformatics lies at the interface between biology, computer science and information technology. The ultimate goal of the field is to enable the discovery of new biological insights as well as to create a global perspective from which unifying principles in biology could be discerned. Moreover, Computational and mathematical insights gained in the pursuit of bioinformatics excellence have already impacted on other areas of the mathematical and computer sciences.
The application of fuzzy sets and systems (FSS) to bioinformatics gives raise to an emergent area that is growing fast as both scientific communities met. The use of FSS in Bioinformatics could be fruitful in at least two ways:
* Providing the formal tools to deal with the aspects of uncertainty,
vagueness and fuzziness that are inherent to bioinformatics problems
* Improving reliability and robustness by hybridising with other
optimisation/machine learning techniques
The purpose of this special issue is to highlight and explore some of
the more recent theoretical and practical advances in the field of Fuzzy Sets and Systems with an application to Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
Original, high-quality papers providing insights and results on the
application of FSS to bioinformatics are sought, addressing issues
including(but not restricted to):
* Theoretical methods and models for FSS in bioinformatics.
* Novel hybridisation methods with other optimisation/machine learning techniques.
* Data mining, Knowledge discovery and interpretation of biological data repositories.
* Phylogenetic reconstruction
* Structure/Sequence analysis/prediction for bio-molecules.
* Performance comparisons with other optimisation/machine learning
techniques.
* Network reconstruction for development, expression, metabolism,
catalysis, regulation, etc.
* Methodologies/philosophy/pedagogy of bioinformatics as a
multidisciplinary activity.
* hardware implementation of fuzzy or fuzzy/hybrid systems for
bioinformatics applications
Each submitted article would be rigorously evaluated following the
revision process normally applied in the Journal of Fuzzy Sets and
Systems. This process will be based on assessing the originality,
significance, technical soundness, clarity of exposition and level of
contribution of FSS techniques and methods that are present in the
submitted paper.
The article should preferably be written using Elsevier Science's
document class 'elsart', or alternatively the standard document class
'article'.
See the journal web page: http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/fss
for more information about formatting.
Although the format for this first submission is not strict, each
accepted article should be written in LaTex following the journal
guidelines.
Contributions should be sent electronically, (as a single PS or PDF
file) to both of the addresses indicated below:
