IFIP TC12 - Artificial Intelligence

This group’s website is at: http://www-staff.it.uts.edu.au/~debenham/wg12.5/

The TC12 working group WG12.5 “Artificial Intelligence Applications” was established in 1993 and was then called “Knowledge Oriented Development of Applications”. It was renamed “Artificial Intelligence Applications” in 2003.

Scope

The scope of the Working Group’s activities includes (but is not restricted to) the following:

1. Novel concepts of computational Intelligence approaches and their adaptation for handling real world applications.
2. Investigation of techniques of modification of computational Intelligence approaches so as to produce more effective computational Intelligence approaches.
3. Enhancement of the computational Intelligence approaches by co-operating with classical or statistical methods.
4. Using computational Intelligence approaches for handling constrained, multi-objective and large scale optimization problems for real world applications.
5. Application of computational Intelligence approaches in real industrial applications
6. Parallel computational Intelligence approaches for practical applications in real world.
7. Using computational Intelligence approaches for solving dynamic optimization or time-varying problems in real world.
8. The following computational intelligence approaches include, but are not limited to:
   • Neural Networks
