Our
goals
Machine Learning is the study of computer algorithms that improve automatically
through experience. Applications range from data mining programs that
discover general rules in large data sets, to information filtering
systems that automatically learn users' interests. Machine learning
algorithms and systems include:
Concept Learning and the General-to-Specific Ordering
Decision Tree Learning
Artificial Neural Networks
Evaluating Hypotheses
Bayesian Learning
Computational Learning Theory
Instance-Based Learning
Genetic Algorithms
Learning Sets of Rules
Analytical Learning
Combining Inductive and Analytical Learning
Reinforcement Learning
What we are doing
In collaboration with other Cybernetics Technical Committees,
we organized "The Fourth International Conference on Machine
Leaning and Cybernetics 2005" (ICMLC'05) in Guangzhou,
China, in August 2005
We organized "The Fourth International Conference on
Wavelet Analysis and Its Applications" in Macau in November
2005.
In collaboration with International Associate of Pattern
Recognition (IAPR), we organized "the 8th International
Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR'06)"
in Seoul, Korea, in August 2005.
In collaboration with IEEE Hong Kong Computational Intelligence
Chapter, we organized "2005 International Conference on
Intelligent Computing (ICIC'05)" in Hefei, China, in August
2005.
We are going to organize an invited sessions/tracks
on "Wavelet Analysis and Application to Intelligent Systems"
in the International Conference on Machine Leaning and
Cybernetics 2006.
In collaboration with other Cybernetics Technical Committees,
we are going to organize "The Fifth International Conference
on Machine Leaning and Cybernetics 2006" (ICMLC'06), which
will be held in China, in August 2006.
We are organizing "The Fifrth International Conference
on Wavelet Analysis and Its Applications", which will
be held in Beijing, China, in November 2006.
In collaboration with International Associate of Pattern
Recognition (IAPR), we will organize "the 18th International
Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR'06)" in Hong Kong
in August 2006.
A IEEE Transactions (Part B) Special Issue is currently
under planning.
Why don't
you join us?
Interacting with scientists and engineers in machine learning, which
is a relatively new and rapidly growing research field and is widely
used in many other research areas.
Participating in interesting conferences and workshops to exchange
research ideas and results with scientists and engineers in the world.
Making friends from different regions of the world.
