32nd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks

Hybrid @ Astoria Capsis Hotel, Heraklion Greece & Web
26th to 29th of September 2023

The International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) is the annual flagship conference of the European Neural Network Society (ENNS). In 2023 the School of Engineering of Democritus University of Thrace, Greece, will organize ICANN 2023. This will be held at Astoria Capsis Hotel at Heraklion city, Crete, Greece from 26th to 29th of September 2023.

The conference will be organised as a HYBRID event.

Neural Applications for:
Bioinformatics, Biomedicine, Intelligent Robotics, Neurorobotics, Language Processing, Speech Processing, Image Processing, Sensor Fusion, Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Neural Agents, Brain-Computer Interaction, Neuromorphic Computing and Edge AI, Evolutionary Neural Networks


CALL FOR CONTRIBUTED SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATIONS
All scientific communications presented at ICANN 2023 will be reviewed and scientifically evaluated by a panel of experts. The conference will feature two categories of communications:
– oral communications (15’+5′)
– poster communications.

Call for Special Sessions and Workshops
ICANN 2023 organizers cordially invite internationally recognised experts to organise Special sessions and Workshops within the general scope of the conference. Please submit your Workshop / Special Session Proposal  by the deadline (see Important Dates) to ICANN 2023 organizing board by email at liliadis AT civil.duth.gr (Prof. Lazaros Iliadis, ICANN 2023 General co-Chair)

CALL FOR PAPERS
Authors willing to present original contributions in either oral or poster category may submit:
– A full paper of maximum 12 pages (including references) to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series with individual DOI.
– An extended abstract of maximum 4 pages to be published in Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, without indexing.

The number of oral slots is limited. In case the number of requested oral presentations is larger than the available slots the ICANN scientific committee will select which papers will be reassigned to a poster session. This selection will be based on the coherence of the program and is totally independent of the category of submission.

IMPORTANT DATES

BEST PAPER AWARDS
ENNS will sponsor a maximum of four best paper awards. All awards will be presented during the final ceremony.

TRAVEL GRANTS
The European Neural Network Society sponsors a number of Student Travel Grants covering part of the costs for attending ICANN. Details will be provided on the conference website.
