Over the years, the International Conference on Machine Learning and
Cybernetics (ICMLC) has emerged as the leading international gathering of
people from academia, professionals and industry in the field of Machine
Learning and Cybernetics. In this annual conference, researchers and
practitioners from around the world gather together to interact, to inform and
to inspire. Leading international researchers, including leaders from IEEE,
especially the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society, will serve as
Tutorial and Keynote Speakers. ICMLC attendees will have many
opportunities to network and discuss their research with these prominent
peers. ICMLC also provides a quality platform for the broad dissemination of
significant research results and innovative practices through conference
presentations and published proceedings. Furthermore, authors have the
opportunity of further development of their work via journal and monograph
publications too. Additionally, ICMLC has a Ph.D. Colloquia, well-focused
invited sessions on leading technologies, panels on topics of great interest to
participants, and conference awards for Lotfi Zadeh Best Paper Award and
Best Student Conference Paper. We invite authors to submit original papers
that contain significant research results, development work, and innovative
practices to ICMLC2009. ICMLC2009 will be held July 12-15, 2009 in the
City of Baoding, China - a place with long tradition and history that dates
back to the Western Han Dynasty, that is 206 – 220 BC
