Cognitive Informatics
and Natural Intelligence
(IJCiNi)
Scope
Cognitive Informatics (CI)
is a cutting-edge and multidisciplinary research area that
tackles the fundamental problems shared by modern
informatics, computation, software engineering, AI,
cybernetics, cognitive science, neuropsychology, medical
science, systems science, philosophy, linguistics,
economics, management science, and life sciences.
CI is
the
transdisciplinary study into the internal information
processing mechanisms and processes of the natural
intelligence – human brains and minds – and their
engineering applications in computing and ICT industries.
The
development and the cross fertilization between the
aforementioned science and engineering disciplines have led
to a whole range of extremely interesting new research areas
known as CI. Following the first four successful conferences
on Cognitive Informatics (ICCI’02 through ICCI’05),
the 5th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive
Informatics (ICCI’06) focuses on the theme of Natural Intelligence, Autonomic Computing and Neuroinformatics. The objectives
of ICCI’06 are to draw attention of researchers,
practitioners and graduate students to the investigation of
cognitive mechanisms and processes of human information
processing, and to stimulate the international effort on
cognitive informatics research and engineering applications.
