WORKSHOP ON
BIO-INSPIRED COMPUTING
JUNE 7-10 2010
VENUE: Seminar Hall, CMS
SJCE, Mysore-6
Preamble:
Biologically Inspired Computing comprises of different Methodologies that solve problems in a distinct way. It consists of Genetic Programming (GP), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Gene Expression Programming (GEP), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Neural Computing.
These nature inspired computational tools having the ability to solve complex problems with high efficiency and potentially have many advantages. Many of these techniques are being applied to solve problems in all branches of engineering. This Workshop is mainly devoted to the Research Scholars and Faculty Members who have some prior knowledge on the above technologies and who would want to use them in their research. The Workshop is designated to help the researchers in either investigate on improving the technologies or use these technologies to solve problems in their research domain. There will be theory session and hands on practical sessions. The source code of different computing techniques are made available to the participants and each one of them must be tried and experimented in the laboratory session. Each participants shall be given a terminal for conducting experiments. More focus will be given to practical sessions. The participants are expected to have some knowledge about Matlab and C++ Programming.
Resource Persons:
Workshop shall be administered by the following faculties.
- Prof.N.Sundararajan, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
- Dr.Sundaram Suresh, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
- Prof.T.N.Nagabhushan, Special Officer, VTU e-Learning Centre, Mysore
- Dr.S.K.Padma, Professor of IS&E, SJCE, Mysore
Number of participants is restricted to a Maximum of 50 only. Selected scholars shall be informed individually through e-mail and list shall be put on Research portal.
Who should Attend:
- Research scholars of VTU who intend to use the Biologically Inspired Computational tools for their research and posses knowledge about Matlab and C++ programming.
- Faculty members who want to migrate to computational intelligence area.
- Preference shall be given to highly motivated research scholars and faculty members.
Note:
- There is NO Registration Fee.
- No TA/DA shall be given.
- Course Materials and Refreshments would be covered as a part of Workshop.
- Selected participants are required to make their own Accommodation. E-Learning centre can help in fixing accommodation at SJCE guest house and at CIIL on a payment basis. This must be explicitly confirmed in online application.
All participants shall be provided with the Course Material and the Source Code of the different computational techniques.
