Advances in Intelligent Systems Research
(ISSN 1951-6851)

During the past decade computer science research in understanding and reproducing human intelligence has expanded from the more traditional approaches like psychology, logics and artificial intelligence into multiple other areas, including neuroscience research.

Moreover, new results in biology, chemistry, (surface) physics and gene technology, but also in network technology are greatly affecting current research in computer science, including the development of intelligent systems. At the same time, computer science's new results are increasingly being applied in these fields allowing for important cross-fertilisations.

This series aims at publishing proceedings from all disciplines dealing with and affecting the issue of understanding and reproducing intelligence in artificial systems.

Also, the series is open for publications concerning the application of intelligence in networked or any other environment and the extraction of meaningful data from large data sets.

Research fields covered by the series include:

- Fuzzy sets
- Machine learning
- Autonomous agents
- Evolutionary systems
- Robotics and autonomous systems
- Semantic web, incl. web services, ontologies and grid computing
- Biological systems
- Artificial Intelligence, incl. knowledge representation, logics
- Neural networks
- Constraint satisfaction
- Computational biology
- Information sciences
- Computer vision, pattern recognition
- Computational neuroscience
- Datamining, knowledge discovery and modelling for e.g. life sciences

The series will be overseen by a number of outstanding computer scientists (to be nominated soon) each of them being an expert in one of the fields covered by this series. In this way a high quality of each volume in the series is guaranteed. Each new conference proposal will be evaluated by one of our editors.

Publishing information
The series aims at publishing original proceedings from international conferences. All proceedings will be published on-line in the Atlantis Press repository and will be freely available to any interested reader. With a fast turnaround time and free access on the Internet, the proceedings in this series will provide an excellent means for conferences and their participants to quickly publish their articles on the Web to the widest possible audience.

In order to guarantee the quality of our publications we only accept articles for publication in our repository, which have been peer-reviewed by at least 2 external reviewers, which is the current standard for scientific journals, proceedings and books.

The AISR-series as a whole has as an ISSN-number (i.c. ISSN: 1951-6851), where each individual volume of proceedings will have its own ISBN-number.

All articles will have a digital object identifier (DOI). DOIs are standardised digital identities used across all major scientific publishers and are managed by CrossRef.

Atlantis Press adheres to the principles of Creative Commons, meaning that we do not claim copyright of the work we publish. We only ask people using one of our publications to respect the integrity of the work and to refer to the original location, title and author(s).

The contents and meta-data of the articles and chapters in our electronic repository will be accessible on a permanent basis through an agreement with the Royal Library of the Netherlands. Through its e-depot service, which is the first in the world, the Royal Library guarantees a permanent archiving.
