Guest posts and conference reports

There are a lot of posts on this blog about conference deadlines - mostly calls for papers. I would like to post more reports on these conferences, similar to this one. Since I don't make it to a lot of conferences these days, this is an open invitation to the readers of this blog: if you attend a conference on computational intelligence, and would like to write a guest post about it, please contact me via contactATmike.watts.net.nz

If you would like to write a guest post on another topic related to computational intelligence, please contact me and let me know what you would like to write about.

Open source textbook - Chapter 2 outline

The outline of Chapter 2 of the open-source textbook "Intelligent Information Systems" is now available online. Chapter 2 is entitled "Simple and Linear Transformations" and is intended to be a brief overview of some of the data processing techniques that can be used to prepare data before it is modeled with computational intelligence techniques. My previous post about the outline of Chapter 1, "Introduction to Intelligent Information Systems", is here.

As always, you comments and suggestions are requested and valued.
