The 4th IAPR TC3 Workshop on Arti?cial Neural Networks in Pattern Rec- nition, ANNPR 2010, was held at Nile University (Egypt), April 11-13, 2010. The workshop was organized by the Technical Committee on Neural Networks and Computational Intelligence (TC3) that is one of the 20 technical comm- tees (TC) of the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR). The scope of TC3 includes computational intelligence approaches, such as fuzzy s- tems, evolutionary computing and arti?cial neural networks and their use in various pattern recognition applications. The major topics of ANNPR are...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed revised selected papers from the Second IAPR International Workshop, PSL 2013, held in Nanjing, China, in May 2013. The 10 papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. Partially supervised learning is a rapidly evolving area of machine learning. It generalizes many kinds of learning paradigms including supervised and unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning for classification and regression, transductive learning, semi-supervised clustering, multi-instance learning, weak label learning, policy...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th IAPR TC3 International Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks in Pattern Recognition, ANNPR 2014, held in Montreal, QC, Canada, in October 2014. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions for inclusion in this volume. They cover a large range of topics in the field of learning algorithms and architectures and discussing the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Third IAPR TC3 Workshop on Pattern Recognition of Social Signals in Human-Computer-Interaction, MPRSS 2014, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in August 2014, as a satellite event of the International Conference on Pattern Recognition, ICPR 2014. The 14 revised papers presented focus on pattern recognition, machine learning and information fusion methods with applications in social signal processing, including multimodal emotion recognition, user identification, and recognition of human activities.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Multiple Classifier Systems, MCS 2015, held in Gunzburg, Germany, in June/July 2015. The 19 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions. The papers address issues in multiple classifier systems and ensemble methods, including pattern recognition, machine learning, neural network, data mining and statistics. They are organized in topical sections on theory and algorithms and application and evaluation.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IAPR TC3 International Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks in Pattern Recognition, ANNPR 2016, held in Ulm, Germany, in September 2016.

The 25 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions for inclusion in this volume. The workshop will act as a major forum for international researchers and practitioners working in all areas of neural network- and machine learning-based pattern recognition to present and discuss the latest research, results, and ideas...
