19th International Conference on
Knowledge-Based and
Intelligent Information
& Engineering Systems
KES-2015
7-9 September 2015,
Marina Bay Sands Hotel, Singapore

We are pleased to invite contributions for KES2015 taking place at the spectacular Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore (pictured), organised by the
National University of Singapore, Institute of Systems Science (NUS-ISS) in conjunction with KES International. The conference will consist of
keynote talks, oral and poster presentations, invited sessions and workshops, on the applications and theory of intelligent systems and related
areas. It will provide excellent opportunities for the presentation of interesting new research results and discussion about them, leading to
knowledge transfer and generation of new ideas. The Marina Bay Sands hotel is the most expensive building ever built and it is stunning! The hotel
features everything from an infinity pool to a casino. It boasts over 1000 shops, a huge variety of restaurants, theatres, an ice rink and a museum.
We look forward to welcoming you to Singapore in 2015!

Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for
publication in a number of journals.
CALL FOR TRACK/SUBJECT CHAIRS
Experienced researchers in the field are invited to chair general
tracks covering various facets of Intelligent Systems within their
domain of expertise, taking responsibility for overseeing the paper
review process. Please contact the Conference Secretariat
outlining your experience and area of expertise if you would like
to contribute.
CALL FOR INVITED SESSIONS AND
WORKSHOPS
We invite researchers working on hot topics and fresh ideas in the
field to organise invited sessions, or parallel workshops of a half
or a full day, gathering a minimum of five papers from research
centres of several universities around the world. Please contact
us providing the title, a summary of the content of the proposed
