A New Era:Neural Netwoks Society BecomesComputational Intelligence Society

At its meeting in Savannah, Georgiaon February 14th, the IEEE Technical

Activities Board voted overwhelmingly infavor of the Neural Networks Society'smotion to change its name to theCOMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCESOCIETY. To become official, the nameneeds to be approved by the Board ofDirectors which is expected to meet onJune 20, 2004. As many of you mayremember, the motion to change NNS'sname originated with the unanimous res-olution adopted by the ADCOM at itsmeeting in Washington, DC lastNovember. Effective fall 2004 uponapproval, only the new name of theSociety will be featured in our promotion-al flyers, on the periodicals' front covers,

and in the renewal materials.

I'm sure you are delighted with thechange! The new name is more descrip-tive and inclusive than the old one whichonly covered a fraction of the Society'sscope. In the new name of ComputationalIntelligence we have encompassed tech-nologies of neural networks, fuzzy sys-

tems, evolutionary computations, andother biologically and linguistically moti-vated computational paradigms. With thechange, the profile of our publicationsand conference efforts, which includesuch events as the World Congress on

Computational Intelligence, will be moreappropriately labeled and represented.

As a part of its mission, the Society isalso promoting activities in emergingfields such as data mining, bio-informat-ics, computational finance, computationalneuroscience, autonomous mental devel-opment, intelligent systems applications

and other related areas. Activities in alltechnical areas are coordinated by one ofthe Society's eight Technical Committees(TC): Neural Networks, Fuzzy Systems,Evolutionary Computation, EmergentTechnologies, Financial Engineering,

Bioinformatics and Bioengineering,Intelligent Systems Applications, andAutonomous Mental Development.

The Society highly encourages itsmembers to participate in its TCs, whichserve as forums for the exchange of valu-able technical information, the dissemi-nation of ideas and the initiation of newtopical trends. It is at this level of involve-ment where ideas and topics are incubat-ed for special sessions of conferences,new workshops and seminars, and spe-cial issues of our journals. Accordingly,our existing TCs will benefit from newmembers, new insights, and new initia-tives. Your involvement can really make a

difference for the Society, and pleaseremember that we are all volunteers ded-icated to the promotion of the excitingfield of the computational intelligence.

The NNS offers its members an amazingrange of technical involvement. It publish-es three Transactions as well as the NNSNewsletter, organizes three Conferencesand when the need arises, it offers special-ized conferences, symposia and work-shops. The intellectual property that theSociety has created and continually pro-duces is of both impressive quality and

quantity. The NNS also supports educa-tional opportunities for its members throughits multimedia tutorials program, and thestudent travel grants and summer researchprograms. Other activities include spon-sorship of the Distinguished LecturerProgram, Technical Field Awards, BestPaper Awards, Pioneer Awards, andMeritorious Service Award. The Society'snewest project offers special opportunitiesfor women in computational intelligence.All of our members are invited to take fulladvantage of these attractive opportunities.

New activities can also be initiated with-in the local territorial entities of our Society

called Chapters. To become involved in aChapter, a member needs to contact theappropriate regional Chapter Chair. If noChapter has been established in your area,you may create one by collecting 12 signa-tures of existing NNS members and con-tacting Dr. Vin Piuri, VP for Membership, [email protected] .

Our members are not only encouragedto involve themselves in work within the

Technical Committees, or Chapters. TheSociety also needs more volunteers to runits business. We need people for ourStanding Committees, such as Education,Multimedia Tutorials, Standards and othercommittees. In addition, as is the case ofother IEEE entities, the Neural NetworksSociety also elects its governing bodycalled Administrative Committee

(ADCOM). This year's election to theADCOM will again be held in September. Istrongly encourage you to vote in the elec-tions. The ballot will include names of can-didates put forward by the NNS NominationCommittee. However, your name can alsobe added to the voting ballot after a petitionwith 15 supporting signatures of NNSmembers is submitted to the President byAugust 1 this year.

As you can see, the Society offers all itsmembers opportunities to get involved,active and participating at the technicallevel or in our self-governance. We needyour support, time and talent, and I am

eagerly awaiting your participation in ourSociety, your contribution to the field, andthe further advancement of the society as awhole. For more information, please checkour website at www.ieee-nns.org, checkthis Newsletter, or contact a Society Officeror Committee/Chapter chair. Last but notleast, I would appreciate your comments,suggestions or questions directed to me at
