Recent Activities
- We have organized special sessions (SS’s) every year at the SMC annual conferences since SMC2001 and are one of the champion TCs that collected the most SS papers. Our TC was awarded by IEEE Most Active SMC Technical Committee Award in 2006 and 2009.
- Our TC is very active in organizing and supporting international conferences. Our TC members serve as chairs of organizing committees and invited speakers. We are organizing and have organized many conferences, including SMC2016, WAC2016, IS2016, SMC Summer School2016, ICACCI2016, WCI2016, NAFIPS2016, WorldCIST2016, CISTI2016, ICSI2016, DMBD2016, SCIS & ISIS 2016, ARIS2016, INCoS2016, and iFUZZY2016.
- See our current and past activities at our Google Site on IEEE SMCS TC on Soft Computing
- We have a public forum, Google Site on IEEE SMCS TC on Soft Computing, for our TC members and provide members’ research interests, related conference information, and Google Group for discussion among TC members.
- We edited a Special Issue on Soft Computing for the SMC Society eNewsletter, No. 29 (Dec. 2009) and an article on our TC at the eNewsletter, No. June 2013.
Join Us
