    *********************************************************************

    The I International Conference on Inductive Modelling (ICIM-2002) will
    present the latest high-quality results in the growing field of inductive
    methods in data mining and forecasting, pattern recognition and parallel
    computing. Inductive modelling is an important area, based on sorting
    methods of artificial intelligence problems solution. The aim of the
    Conference is to bring together leading scientists, researchers and
    experts from different areas, who can make significant contribution
    to development and better understanding of inductive modelling methods.

    Conference topics include, but are not limited to:
     - Principles and theoretical foundations of inductive modelling.
     - Data mining, laws extracting and knowledge discovery.
     - Parallel computing
     - Time series analysis and forecasting.
     - Information and hybrid systems.
     - Neural networks and genetic algorithms.
     - Pattern recognition and clustering.
     - Parametric methods of modelling, machine learning, and
       evolutionary computation.
     - Non-parametric methods: search of analogues, fuzzy logic and
       probabilistic modelling
     - Selection and construction of criteria for model structure optimization.
     - Comparison of different approaches for artificial intelligence problems
       solution.
     - Estimation of inductive methods efficiency in modelling and prediction.
     - Application of inductive approach to solution of AI problems.

    OBJECTIVE
    The aim of Conference is to analyse the current progress in development of
    inductive approach to artificial intelligence problems solution.

    Methods of inductive modelling allow to find automatically models of optimal
    complexity for real data and therefore can improve the accuracy of AI problems
    solution. Inductive modelling has objective character and therefore can help to
    avoid invalid decisions of experts. Inductive approach also considerably
    enriches existing methods of data mining and knowledge discovery by new
    possibilities to increase accuracy and lead-time of predictions. Methods of
    parallel computing are adequate for self-organizing algorithms, allowing to
    increase considerably the dimensionality of processed data.

    Among the highlights of the Conference there will be issues of theory
    development, algorithms and applications of the Group Method of Data Handling
    (GMDH) as first realization of inductive idea in modelling. Conference
    participants will have the opportunity to discuss fundamentals and state of art
    in inductive modelling, plans for software and hardware development,
    organization of cooperation, and discuss ways for enhancing of effectiveness of
    complex systems modelling.
