Brain-computer Interface:
Brain-Computer Interfaces and Neurotechnologies. Special Session IWANN2013
13th
International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks
12–14 June, 2013 – Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain)
http://www.iwann-conference.es/
=================================
AIMS
=================================
The Brain-computer
Interface (BCI) technology is based on the analysis of brain activity to
provide a non muscular channel for the transmission of messages and commands. A
BCI emerged few decades ago as a new communication procedure allowing subjects
with severe neuromuscular disorders, who may be completely paralyzed or in the
locked-in state, to communicate and to interact with the outer world. However,
recently BCI applications have been also used in totally different areas (e. g.
entertainment). In the future, it is expected a qualitative improvement in
performance, in terms of information transfer rate and reliability with
potential uses in emerging areas of interest, such as Ambient Assisted Living
(AAL) or security.
The main goal of this
special session is to show the last advances in neurotechnologies, BCIs and
their respective applications, as well as innovative biosignal processing
algorithms, training techniques or paradigms that make them possible.
Furthermore, we propose
a special demo session, where participants of the IWANN will be welcome to
experiment with this technology by themselves.

PAPERS
SUBMISSIONS
=================================
The proceedings will
include all the presented communications to the conference. As in previous
editions of IWANN, we are arranging the publication of the proceedings with
Springer-Verlag on Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS) series, and the
books will be available on-site. It is also foreseen the publication of an
extended version of selected papers in a special issue on several specialized
journals (such as Neurocomputing,
Soft
Computing and Neural
Proccesing Letters).
http://iwann.ugr.es/2013/iwann13.php?menu=contributions&sub=issues
The procedure for the
submission of papers is the same as for the rest of the contributions of the
conference and it will be made through the IWANN2013 web section. The authors
are asked to indicate the Special Session title to which their paper is
submitted. Authors must prepare original manuscripts which should not exceed 8
pages in the LNCS Springer-Verlag format. Please proceed to Authors information
section for detailed Information http://www.iwann-conference.es/
