SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS Neuro-Fuzzy First International ICSC Conference on Neuro-Fuzzy Technologies NF 2002 to be held in Havana, Cuba January 16 - 19, 2002 http://www.icsc-naiso.org/conferences/nf2002 International Computing Sciences Conventions (ICSC) Natural and Artificial Intelligence Systems Organization (NAISO) 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.
