Fuzzy Approaches in Database Management and Information Retrieval

The annual IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE) will be held jointly with the International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN) and the IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (IEEE CEC) as part of the 2012 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (IEEE WCCI), June 10-15, 2012, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Brisbane, Australia.

Special session on "Fuzzy Databases and Applications" at Flexible Query Answering Systems (FQAS) 2011 which will take place in Ghent, Belgium, October 26th-28th, 2011 (http://fqas2011.ugent.be).

TOPICS:

This special session is aimed to gather researchers on fuzzy databases by providing a forum where to discuss advances of this area (theory and applications) applied to the field of flexible query answering systems.

TOPIC: Fuzzy information retrieval and database systems

ORGANIZERS:
Guy De Tré (Ghent University, Belgium, guy.detre@telin.ugent.be)
Allel Hadjali (IRISA/ENSSAT, France, Allel.Hadjali@enssat.fr)
Olivier Pivert (IRISA/ENSSAT, France, Olivier.Pivert@enssat.fr)
Slawomir Zadrozny (Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland, Slawomir.Zadrozny@ibspan.waw.pl)

Supported by the EUSFLAT Working Group on Soft Computing in Database Management and
Information Retrieval.

SCOPE:

SPECIAL SESSION on Advances in Soft Computing Applied to Databases and Information Systems
IFSA/AFSS 2011 congress (http://ifsa2011.eepis-its.edu/)

SCOPE:

Nowadays, one of the most crucial challenges raised by modern Database Management Systems, and by Information Systems in general, concerns their ability to support a huge volume of data which can be heterogeneous, imprecise, uncertain, incomplete and/or inconsistent. From a user's point of view, it is thus very desirable for such systems to possess high flexibility.
