Welcome to the homepage of the 4th International Workshop on Applications of Neural Networks - NN'99 The workshop takes place at March 4-5, 1999 at the Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg

The workshop NN'99 is chaired jointly by Prof. Dr. Bernd Michaelis (Institute of Technical Computer Science) and Prof. Dr. Rudolf Kruse (Institute of Knowledge Processing and Language Engineering, Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems).

NN'99 is supported by the ERUDIT committee on Future Research and Advanced Technology.

The first two workshops of this series took place at the Institute of Statics and Dynamics of Aviation and Astronautics of the University of Stuttgart. At each workshop there were about 50 participants from Austria, Switzerland and Germany.

The 1998 workshop was held in Magdeburg. 65 participants from Austria, Brazil, The Netherland, Switzerland, and Germany 43 visited Magdeburg to present 43 contributions altogether.

The workshop mainly addresses young researchers who want to present their work in neural networks and related areas and who are looking for an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas.

The application of neural networks is now common in many areas like pattern recognition, image processing, robotics, process automization, diagnosis, medicine, financial services, economics, and knowledge representation. Often, there are applications in combinations with other approaches like fuzzy systems or evolutionary algorithms.

There is a great need for young researchers in neural networks to meet at informal occasions and to discuss benefits and drawbacks of different approaches and applications in the area of neural networks. Experience shows that several groups work on similar problems. By exchanging ideas support for new research directions and cooperations can develop.

In 1999, the International Workshop on Neural Networks in Applications is being held for the fourth time. The Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg is now hosting this meeting for the second time. The Group Neural Networks in Image Processing of the IPE is organizing the workshop NN'99 together with the group Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems of the IWS.

In addition to the normal program there will be invited talks such that the participants have the opportunity to meet renowned researchers from the area of neural networks. The workshop is open for all interested persons. A presentation is not required for participation.
