Fifth International Conference on Intelligent Data Engineering and Automated Learning

Fifth International Conference on Intelligent 
Data Engineering and Automated Learning (IDEAL04)
August 25-27, 2004, Exeter, UK 
http://www.dcs.ex.ac.uk/ideal04/


CALL FOR PAPERS
IDEAL is a biennial conference dedicated 
to emerging and challenging topics in intelligent data analysis and engineering 
and their associated learning paradigms. 
Following the highly successful
conferences held in Hong Kong and Manchester, 
the fifth conference (IDEAL04) will be held 
in the historical city of Exeter located in 
the beautiful southwest of England.
This conference will unite researchers, 
scientists and practitioners the world over to present their findings, exchange 
ideas, 
and to share their successes.IDEAL04 presents an opportunity to reveal and 
develop the latest 
theoretical advances and their real-world 
applications in intelligent data engineering 
and automated learning to other world experts. 
The main themes of this conference
include (but are not limited to) Bioinformatics, 
Data Mining and Fusion, Learning and Information Processing, Financial 
Engineering 
and Agents.
