SUMMARY:IEEE World Conference on Computational Intelligence: Special Session on Artificial Olfaction and Touch
DESCRIPTION:World Conference on Computational Intelligence\, July 18-23\, Centre de Convencions Internacional de Barcelona\, Barcelona\, Spain Related Conference: International Joint Conference on Neural Networks 2010Call for papers for Special Session: Computational Intelligence for Artificial Sensing: Olfaction and Touch \n\n\n\nScope:Recently there has been an renewed research activity in the field of biologically inspired computation for artificial sensing. While vision and hearing have received a great deal of attention in past decades\, in new wave of research is being devoted to olfaction and hearing. Both olfaction and touch rely on large sensor arrays and both have an important component on signal and data processing\, first in peripheral neural circuits and further on in higher cortical areas.On the other hand\, while in vision and audition stimuli can be systematically varied by frequency; there is not an equivalent metric for olfaction. The relationship between odour and structure is hardly understood.Artificial Olfaction Systems combine an array of chemical sensors with partial specificity with pattern recognition systems for complex odour detection and identification. While the concept is more than 30 years old\, most of the attention has been devoted to chemical sensor technology. Since the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology for Linda Buck and Richard Axel in 2004 for their discoveries of odorant receptors and the organization of the olfactory system\, the research link to biology and to the psychophysics of olfaction has been strengthened.In this sense\, the field of computational intelligence for artificial sensing is growing fast. The new trend is not just to build computational neuroscience models of olfaction and touch\, but to construct engineered artefacts where the operation of those models can be tested and validated. However\, this path is just starting. The aim of the special session is to present latest’s advances in computational intelligence for Artificial Olfaction and Touch. The session will mainly focus on biologically inspired algorithms\, although statistical learning techniques are also considered.  \n\n\n\nTopics: We encourage submissions addressing the following issues: \n\n\n\n–          Large sensor arrays: chemical and mechanical \n\n\n\n–          Sensor diversity and redundancy \n\n\n\n–          Noise reduction techniques \n\n\n\n–          Computational models of olfaction and touch \n\n\n\n–          Computational Intelligence Techniques applied to Olfaction and Tactile Data \n\n\n\n–          Analysis of biological data with computational intelligence tools. \n\n\n\n–          Psychophysics of Touch and Olfaction: Scenarios for algorithm testing. \n\n\n\n–          Benchmarking of Artificial Sensing Systems \n\n\n\n–          Robots with Olfactory/Tactile capabilities. \n\n\n\n–          Active Chemical/Mechanical Sensing \n\n\n\n–          Embedded algorithmic implementation for real-time operation. \n\n\n\nPaper submissionAll instructions and templates for submission can be found in the WCCI’10 web site (http://www.wcci2010.org/submission).

SUMMARY:IMTeC 2010; First European Conference on Micro-Analysis
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Forum LABO & BIOTECH hosts this year \n\n\n\nthe first European Congress on Micro-Technologies: IMTeC.\n\n\n\nForum LABO & BIOTECH will take place from 1 to June 4\, 2010 in Paris. IMTeC: 2nd and 3rd June. \n\n\n\nFor the 2010’ edition\, the Interprofessional Committee of Laboratory Suppliers – /Comité Interprofessionnel des Fournisseurs du Laboratoir/\, CIFL\, the owner of this event\, has decided to expand the supply of goods and services sector to the process sector in order to meet the changing demand within the profession\, always seeking new ways and solutions to gain speed and productivity. \n\n\n\nThis opening allows at Forum LABO & BIOTECH cover all applications\, from RESEARCH to ONLINE ANALYSIS via the CONTROL\, to attract discerning visitors\, both public and private sector and industry. \n\n\n\nForum LABO & BIOTECH present in this complete offer:\n\n\n\n8000 sqm *exhibitionnearly *300 exhibitors*\,4 exhibition areas: the physico-chemical\, biotechnology\, Process Analytics\, and sustainable development. and nearly 10\,000 visitors (9\,800 in 2008). The file is given to visitors after the show\, IMTEC Congress: First European Conference on Micro-analysis expert forums\, moderated by renowned experts. 2010’ themes on sustainable development (topics selected by a panel of visitors of the latest edition 2008)\, and a communications plan important in leading journals.\n\n\n\nAbout IMTeC 2010:\n\n\n\nProcess Analytical Technology (PAT) has provided value to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries for years in improving productivity and quality by gathering data to develop and monitor processes. PAT has been the enabling tool to implement Quality by Design (QbD) as a way to achieve Process Understanding. Recent advances in analytical and sampling technology have continued to improve measurement capabilities. \n\n\n\nNew technology for micro-machining\, along with new material development\, has allowed for advances in the miniaturization of instrumentation and sampling systems. A good example of this is in the development of the New Sensor and Sampling System (NeSSI)\, growing out of the forum created by the Center for Process Analytical Chemistry (CPAC) in the USA. This has enabled developments in operational devices such as micro-reaction equipment for process optimization and new micro-analytical tools for characterizing process samples. \n\n\n\nIMTeC will be a venue to describe to European companies the use of NeSSI and related analytical devices as valuable tools to consider in achieving the ultimate goal of Process Understanding\, the key to achieving improved productivity and quality in products via effective implementation of process control. \n\n\n\nIMTeC will cover:\n\n\n\nMicro Technology and the LaboratoryAnalyzer sampling system\, components\, and diagnosticNeSSI componentsProcess Automation Technology\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nDownload the program
