SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

Neuro-Fuzzy
First International ICSC Conference on Neuro-Fuzzy Technologies
NF 2002
to be held in
Havana, Cuba

INTRODUCTION
During the past decade, paradigms and benefits from neuro fuzzy
systems (NF) have been growing tremendously. Today, not only does NF
solve scientific problems, but its applications are also appearing in
our daily lives.

In order to discuss the state of the art in NF and the future of these
exciting topics; we are honored to invite you to Neuro-Fuzzy 2002. We
believe it will be an excellent opportunity to share our knowledge on NF
and contribute to its development in the next century.

This major international conference will be held in a very
enjoyable location: Havana, the capital of Cuba, where we hope you will
experience the famous Cuban hospitality.
