    Dear Colleagues,

    We have organised an exciting event: HIS'2001: International
    Workshop on Hybrid Intelligent Systems in conjunction with The
    14th Australian Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence
    (AI'01).

    Venue: Adelaide, South Australia
    Date: 11-12, December 2001
    Workshop URL: http://his.hybridsystem.com

    (Technically co-sponsored by The World Federation of Soft Computing)

    HIS'01 is an International Workshop that brings together
    researchers, developers, practitioners, and users of neural
    networks, fuzzy inference systems, evolutionary algorithms
    and conventional techniques. The aim of HIS'01 is to serve as
    a forum to present current and future work as well as to
    exchange research ideas in this field.

    HIS'01 invites authors to submit their original and unpublished
    work that demonstrate current research using hybrid computing
    techniques and their applications in science, technology,
    business and commercial.

    Topics of interest include but not limited to:

    Applications/techniques using the following, but not limited to:

      * Machine learning techniques (supervised/unsupervised/
        reinforcement learning)

      * Artificial neural network and evolutionary algorithms

      * Artificial neural network optimization using global optimization=
     techniques

      * Neural networks and fuzzy inference systems

      * Fuzzy clustering algorithms optimized using evolutionary
        algorithms

      * Evolutionary computation (genetic algorithms, genetic
        programming ,evolution strategies, grammatical evolution etc)

      * Hybrid optimization techniques (simulated annealing, tabu
        search, GRASP etc.)

      * Hybrid computing using neural networks-fuzzy systems-
        evolutionary algorithms

      * Hybrid of soft computing and hard computing techniques

      * Models using inductive logic programming, decomposition methods,
        grammatical inference, case-based reasoning etc.

      * Other intelligent techniques ( support vector machines,
        rough sets, Bayesian networks, probabilistic reasoning,
        minimum message length etc)

    *************************************************************
                              Paper Submission
    *************************************************************

    We invite you to submit a full paper of 20 pages(maximum limit)
    for the workshop presentation. Please follow the IOS Press
    guidelines for more information on submission. Submission
    implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to
    register and present the paper. All full papers are to be
    submitted in PDF, postscript or MS word version electronically
    to: hybrid@softcomputing.net

    Hard copies should be sent only if electronic submission
    is not possible. All papers will be peer reviewed by two
    independent referees of the international program committee
    of HIS'01. All accepted papers will published in the
    proceedings of the Workshop by IOS Press, Netherlands.

    ***********************************************************
                              Important Dates
    ***********************************************************

    Submission deadline: September 07, 2001

    Notification of acceptance: October 01, 2001

    Camera ready papers and pre-registration due: 15 October'01
