<P>Dear Colleague,</P>
<P>We cordially invite you to submit a paper to the upcoming 2017 13th
International Conference on Natural Computation, Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge
Discovery (ICNC-FSKD 2017), to be held from 29-31 July 2017 in Guilin, China.
</P>
<P>Guilin has long been praised as the most picturesque place in China, as an
old Chinese saying goes: "Guilin mountain/water scenery is the best under
heaven." Embraced by lofty hills with the winding Li River flowing through,
Guilin boasts magnificent natural beauty and many precious cultural relics, most
famously the Elephant Trunk Hill, Reed Flute Cave, Seven-Star Park, Folded
Brocade Hill, plus limpid lakes, grotesque rocks, unique rice terraces and
minority villages.</P>
<P><STRONG><FONT color=blue>As with the past ICNC-FSKD conferences, all papers
in conference proceedings will be submitted to EI </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT
color=blue>Compendex, Scopus, and ISTP (ISI Proceedings), as well as IEEE
Xplore (all previous ICNC-FSKD conferences from 2005 to 2016 have been indexed
in Ei Compendex). Extended versions of selected best papers will appear in
SCIE-indexed international journals, such as the Soft Computing journal (Impact
Factor: 1.63) and Neurocomputing (Impact Factor: 2.39).</FONT></STRONG>
ICNC-FSKD 2017 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems
Society (pending).</P>
<P>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-D460
includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all
technical sessions.</P>
<P>To promote international participation of researchers from outside the
country/region where the conference is held (i.e., China’s mainland),
researchers outside of China’s mainland are encouraged to propose <STRONG><FONT
color=blue>invited sessions</FONT></STRONG>. 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’s 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 2017. 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 <A
