Dear Colleague,

We cordially invite you to submit a paper to the upcoming 10th =
International Conference on Natural Computation (ICNC 2014) and the 11th =
International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery (FSKD =
2014), to be jointly held from 19-21 August 2014 in Xiamen, China. Due =
to numerous requests, the submission deadline is extended to 10 March =
2014.

With a pleasant subtropical climate, Xiamen is known as one of the most =
beautiful and liveable cities in China. Famous attractions include =
Gulangyu Island (credited as a "garden on the sea", "architecture =
exhibition of ten thousand nations", "hometown of music" and "island of =
piano"), Hulishan Fortress (Guinness World Records on the biggest and =
smallest cannons), and South Putuo Temple. Excursions may be made to =
Fujian Tulou, UNESCO World Heritage Sites of fortified dwellings housing =
up to 80 families.

As with the past ICNC-FSKD conferences, all papers in conference =
proceedings will be submitted to both EI Compendex and ISTP (ISI =
Proceedings), as well as IEEE Xplore. Extended versions of selected best =
papers will appear in ICNC-FSKD special issues of Knowledge-Based =
Systems (Impact Factor: 4.104) and Neural Processing Letters (Impact =
Factor: 1.240). ICNC-FSKD 2014 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE =
Circuits and Systems Society (pending).

ICNC-FSKD is a premier international forum for scientists and =
researchers to present the state of the art of data mining and =
intelligent methods inspired from nature, particularly biological, =
linguistic, and physical systems, with applications to computers, =
circuits, systems, control, robotics, communications, and more. This is =
an exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of =
theory and methodologies are being investigated and developed to tackle =
complex and challenging problems. The registration fee of US-D410 =
includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all =
technical sessions.

To promote international participation of researchers from outside the =
country/region where the conference is held (i.e., China=92s mainland), =
researchers outside of China=92s mainland are encouraged to propose =
invited sessions. An honorarium of US-D400 will be enjoyed by the =
organizer(s) for each completed (with at least 6 registered papers) =
invited session. The first author of each paper in an invited session =
must not be affiliated with an organization in China=92s mainland. =
"(Invited Paper)" may be added below the title of each paper in the =
invited sessions. Invited session organizers will solicit submissions, =
conduct reviews and recommend accept/reject decisions on the submitted =
papers. Invited session organizers will be able to set their own =
submission and review schedules, as long as a set of recommended papers =
is determined by 3 June 2014. Each invited session proposal should =
include: (1) the name, bio, and contact information of each organizer of =
the invited session; (2) the title and a short synopsis of the invited =
session. Please send your proposal to [email protected]
