Bio-inspired computing is a field of study that abstracts computing ideas (data structures, operations with data, ways to control operations, computing models, etc.) from the living phenomena or biological systems such as evolution, cell, tissue, neural network, immune system and ant colony. The areas of bio-inspired computing include evolutionary computation, DNA and molecular computing, membrane computing, neural computing, artificial immune systems, swarm intelligence, etc.
The 12th International Conference on Bio-inspired Computing: Theories and Applications (BIC-TA 2017) will be held on December 1st --3rd, 2017, in Harbin, China. The conference aims to provide a high-level international forum for researchers working in the field of bio-inspired computing to present their recent results and to exchange ideas. The conference invites researchers to contribute high-quality original research papers in any aspect of bio-inspired computing. The main topics for the conference include, but are not limited to, the following:
• DNA and Molecular Computing
• Membrane Computing
• Swarm Intelligence
• Evolutionary Computation
• Neural Network
• Brain-inspired Computation
• Artificial Immune Systems
• Complex Systems and Fuzzy Systems
• Bioinformatics and Cheminformatics
• DNA Nanotechnology
• Computational Neuroscience
• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
All accepted papers will be published in Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) by Springer. In addition, extended versions of selected papers will be invited for special issues in several international journals, including:
1. Memetic Computing (Springer, SCI IF: 0.900)
2. Swarm and Evolutionary Computation (Elsevier, SCI IF: 2.963)
3. CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology (Elsevier)
4. International Journal of Intelligent Computing and Cybernetics (IJICC) (EI)
5. International Journal of Swarm Intelligence Research
6. International Journal of Computational Intelligence and Pattern Recognition
