CFP: BIOMAP 2026 - International Workshop on Bio-Inspired Methods for Pattern Recognition (BIOMAP 2026)
Francesco FONTANELLA
The workshop will present recent advances in bio-inspired intelligence, such as swarm intelligence and evolutionary computation, as a framework for advanced pattern recognition. Its main goal is to link the bio-inspired intelligence and pattern recognition communities to foster the development of robust, efficient, and adaptive solutions for challenging real-world problems.
📚 TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Evolutionary neural architecture discovery
- Swarm intelligence for distributed patterns
- Self-organising and adaptive vision
- Artificial life and emergent patterns
- Evolutionary multi-objective optimisation
- Applications and grand challenges (medical imaging, autonomous driving, remote sensing, biometrics, industrial inspection)
- and more ..
