IWANN 2017 Real World applications of BCI systems

Real World applications of BCI systems Special Session IWANN2017.

The deadline for paper submission to the 14th International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (IWANN2017) has been extended up to February 19, 2017.

14th International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks
14–16 June, 2017 – Cádiz (Spain)

Aim

A Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) is based on the analysis of brain activity to provide a non – muscular channel for sending messages and commands to the external world.
A BCI emerged few decades ago as a new communication procedure allowing subjects with severe neuromuscular disorders, who may be completely paralyzed or locked-in, to communicate and to interact with the outer world. However, recently BCI applications have been also used in totally different areas (e. g. entertainment). In the future, a qualitative improvement in performance is expected, in terms of information
transfer rate and reliability with potential uses in emerging areas of interest.
The main goal of this special session is to show the last research
advances in neurotechnologies, BCIs and applications, as well as innovative signal processing algorithms, training techniques or paradigms that make them possible.

The proceedings will include all the presented communications to the conference. As in previous editions of IWANN, the proceedings will be published with Springer-Verlag on the Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS) series, and the books will be available on-site. It is also foreseen the publication of an extended version of selected papers in a special issue on several specialized journals such as Neurocomputing

(Elsevier), and Neural Processing Letters (Springer).
