TELKOMNIKA: Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering (p-ISSN: 1693-6930, e-ISSN: 2087-278X) The one only Electrical Engineering Journal in Indonesia accredited by DGHE (DIKTI), Ministry of National Education, Republic of Indonesia CALL FOR PAPERS Special Section on “Artificial Intelligence and Soft Computing” The special section provides a forum for dissemination of knowledge on both theoretical and applied research on artificial intelligence and soft computing with an ultimate aim to bridge the gap between these two non-coherent disciplines of knowledge. This section accelerates interaction between the above two bodies of knowledge, and fosters a unified development in the next generation computational models for machine intelligence. The primary objective of the section is to establish an effective channel of communication between theoretical researchers and practitioners. The theoretical research outcome provides necessary support to practitioners in the design and development of intelligent systems, and the difficulties faced by the practitioners in using the theoretical results provide feedback to the theoreticians to revalidate their models. The section thus meets the demand of both theoretical and applied researchers in artificial intelligence and soft computing. The areas of interest cover all topics under the broad spectrum of artificial intelligence and soft computing and their applications, including but not limited to: 1. Research focused on the following components of artificial intelligence: learning systems (machine learning), knowledge representation and reasoning, problem-solving, planning (intelligent planning), perception (visual/linguistic perception), knowledge acquisition, logic programming, intelligent search, uncertainty management, language-understanding, emotional intelligence and others. 2. Applications of artificial intelligence included: expert systems, game-playing, theorem-proving, natural language processing, image recognition, bioinformatics, computer vision, robotics and related fields, natural language processing, multi-agent systems, speech understanding, knowledge engineering, distributed intelligent processing (parallel and distributed realization of intelligent algorithms/systems), intelligent database systems, and many others 3. Research focused on the following foundation component for the emerging field of conceptual intelligence: fuzzy logic (fuzzy sets and logic), neural computing, evolutionary computation, machine learning, derivative-free optimization algorithms and probabilistic reasoning, with the latter subsuming belief networks, chaos theory and parts of learning theory. In this perspective, the principal constituent methodologies in soft computing are complementary rather than competitive. 4. Rough sets in soft computing and knowledge discovery 5. Applications of artificial neural network (ANN): Hebb, Perceptron, multi-layer Perceptron, Adaline, Madaline, back-prorogation, Hopfield, learning vector quantization (LVQ), recurrent neural network (RNN), self-organizing map (SOM), etc. 6. Applications of Fuzzy systems 7. Applications of evolutionary computation: genetic algorithm (GA), genetic programming, evolutionary programming, evolution strategy, neuro-evolution, optimizing algorithm, heuristic algorithm, metaheuristics algorithm, stochastic search, Tabu search, Simulated annealing, etc. 8. Applications of swarm intelligence: ant colony optimization, river formation dynamics, particle swarm optimization (PSO), stochastic diffusion search, gravitational search algorithm, intelligent water drops, charged system search, etc. 9. Applications of Bayesian network 10. Applications of chaos theory 11. Soft computing for data and web mining Applications 12. Researches and applications of the combination of the above algorithms: hybridization of intelligent models/algorithms; application in pattern recognition, image understanding, control, robotics and bioinformatics; application in system design, system identification, prediction, scheduling and game playing; application in VLSI algorithms and mobile communication/computing systems; and others Manuscript Preparation and Submission Follow the guide for Authors” of the TELKOMNIKA Journal Please submit your manuscript to: telkomnika@ee.uad.ac.id cc: thsutikno@ieee.org On the submitting, please write the subject: SS on AI & SC Timetable Deadline for manuscript submissions October 31, 2011 Information about manuscript acceptance December 31, 2011 Final version due date January 31, 2012 Estimated publication date Vol.10 No.1 April 2012 Guest Editor-in-Chief Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country1), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Guest Editors: Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country2), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country3), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country4), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country5), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country6), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Xxxx yyyy (X University, Country7), email: xxxx@yyyyyy.com Tole Sutikno Kartika Firdausy Editor-in-Chief: Journal Administrator: thsutikno@ieee.org Telp. +6075536518 / +60167277209 telkomnika@ee.uad.ac.id +62274379418 Dept. of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Industrial Technology, University of Ahmad Dahlan, Jln.
