<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Dear Colleague,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">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. The deadline for the 2nd (final) round of submissions is
<STRONG><FONT color=blue>16 May 2017</FONT></STRONG> (papers already submitted
in the previous round should not be re-submitted and will receive review
notifications on 15 April).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">As with the past ICNC-FSKD conferences,
<FONT color=blue><STRONG>all papers in conference proceedings will be submitted
to EI 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 Soft Computing (Impact Factor:
1.63), Neurocomputing (Impact Factor: 2.39), Concurrency and Computation:
Practice and Experience (Impact Factor: 0.942).</STRONG></FONT> ICNC-FSKD 2017
is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society
(pending).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">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 <FONT color=blue><STRONG>invited sessions</STRONG></FONT>. 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 </FONT><A
