** First Call for Papers - please circulate this CFP to your colleagues and networks ** -- The 14th International Conference on Innovations in Bio-Inspired Computing and Applications (IBICA'23) --IBICA 2023 Theme: Nature Inspired Approaches and Generative AI=====================================================http://www.mirlabs.net/ibica23http://www.mirlabs.org/ibica23* Onsite and On the World Wide Web *Onsite Venues:Olten, Switzerland : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OltenPorto, Portugal : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PortoVilnius, Lithuania : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VilniusKochi, India : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KochiDecember 14-15, 2023IBICA 2023 will be a hybrid conference that will run fully in-person and fully virtually to take advantage of the best that the two modalities can offer. Besides regular paper presentations, the technical programme will include 8-10 plenary lectures and poster sessions. IBICA 2023 Organising Committee also recognises the benefits of virtual conferences allowing participation at a cheaper rate. This allows a higher number of research scholars and students to attend. Selected authors will have the option to attend and present the papers virtually or present in one of the three venues in Europe and Asia.Proceedings of IBICA'23 will be published with Springer Verlag in their Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems (LNNS) series.

The aim of IBICA is toprovide a platform for world research leaders and practitioners, todiscuss the “full spectrum” of current theoretical developments,emerging technologies, and innovative applications of Bio-inspiredComputing. Bio-inspired Computing is currently one of the mostexciting research areas, and it is continuously demonstratingexceptional strength in solving complex real life problems. The maindriving force of the conference is to further explore the intriguingpotential of Bio-inspired Computing. IBICA 2023 will be held in hybrid mode.**Topics (not limited to)**-----------------------------------------Bio-inspired ComputingAnt Colony SystemArtificial Immune SystemsArtificial IntelligenceArtificial Neural NetworksCellular AutomatonCognitive ModelingDNA ComputingDifferential EvolutionEmergent SystemsEvolutionary ComputationsEvolutionary Strategies/ProgrammingFuzzy LogicGenetic Algorithms/ProgrammingGranular ComputingNeutrosophic SystemsOrganic ComputingP SystemsParticle Swarm OptimizationEmerging Technologies & ApplicationsIntelligent Distributed and High-Perfomance Architecture**Submission Guidelines**----------------------------------------Submission of paper should be made through the submission pagefrom the conference web page.
