The Instituto Tecnologico de Informatica (ITI) is proud to present this
Second Workshop on Computational Intelligence Applied to Business, JICAN2009.
Its purpose is twofold: on the one hand, to introduce this technology to
companies in any area; on the other, to show actual fields of application to
researchers in academia.
The conference is privileged to count on the participation of national and
international experts in Computational Intelligence, who will present the
latest developments in CI with a special focus on how it is used in real
world business and industry applications.
In this series of talks we hope the audience will gain an overview of some
of the latest techniques and applications of CI and that this will inspire
the use of CI in their own lines of business.
With the support of the Spanish Chapter of IEEE-Computational Intelligence
Society.
PLEASE NOTE: The languages of the Workshop are English and Spanish.
Two-way simultaneous translation will be provided to those who require it.
