2011 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC-2011)
 New Orleans, USA     June 5-8 2011
http://www.cec2011.org/

IMPORTANT DATES

      Paper Submissions: Mar 7 2011
      Paper Acceptance: Mar 15 2011
      Final Paper Submission: Apr 1 2011

SCOPE

The use of evolutionary computation (EC) techniques in finance and economics has become increasingly important. These methods have been proven to be a powerful tool in domains were analytic solutions are not a good alternative. Real-world problems involve complexity, noisy environments, uncertainty and vagueness, hence the popularity of EC among both researchers and practitioners. So far it has been successfully used in financial engineering, risk management, portfolio optimization, industrial organization, auctions, searching equilibriums, studying the emergence of the representative agent and rational expectations, designing public policy, financial forecasting, market simulation or agent-based computational economics, among many other areas.

The session is open to contributions from researchers and practitioners working at the intersection of evolutionary computation and economics and finance. Submitted articles should describe applications of evolutionary computation in domains including (but not limited to):

      - Agent-Based Computational Economics
      - Artificial Stock Markets
      - Auctions
      - Environmental Economics
      - Evolutionary Games and Industrial Organization
      - Experimental Economics
      - Financial Data Mining
      - Financial Engineering
      - Financial Time Series Forecasting and Analysis
      - Macroeconomics
      - Microeconomic Behavior
      - Portfolio Management
      - Simulation of Social Processes
      - Term Structure Models
      - Trading Strategies

Specific EC techniques include (but are not limited to):

      - Evolution Strategies
      - Evolutionary artificial Neural Networks
      - Evolutionary Programming
      - Genetic Algorithms
      - Genetic Programming
      - Hybrid Evolutionary Systems
      - Swarm Intelligence

Instructions for authors: Manuscripts should be prepared according to the standard format of regular papers specified in IEEE CEC 2011. All papers are to be submitted electronically through the congress website (specify the special session)  http://www.cec2011.org/submission.htm

Hola David,

 

Que bueno que volváis a organizar vosotros una special sesión en CEC. Yo he vuelto a estos mundos hace una año, aunque en mi dpto. no me cuentan mucho estas revistas como te comenté hace tiempo, pero la verdad es que es más divertido y he decidido volver. Tengo un par de papers ya muy acabados que podría enviar, así que los enviaré.

Teneis pensado como la otra vez algún tipo de publicación luego en un Journal, o esta difícil.

Ya me cuentas.

 

Saludos

Hola David:

Me parece estupendo. Respondiendo a tu pregunta, todavía no hay nada hablado. Ten por seguro que haré lo que esté en mi mano para sacar uno pero, en este punto, no puedo garantizar nada.

Un saludo

David
