  HISTORY OF THE CONFERENCE

This Conference is intended to be a continuation in a new form of the symposium series on Intelligent Information Systems organized by the Institute of Computer Science of Polish Academy of Sciences and devoted to new trends in (broadly understood) Artificial Intelligence for over ten years. The proceeedings of the last three events were published by Springer-Verlag in the Series on Advances in Soft Computing

The idea of organizing such meetings dates back to 1992. Our main intention guided the first, rather small-audience, workshop in the series was to resume the results gained in Polish scientific centers as well as contrast them with the research performed by Polish scientists working at the universities in Europe and USA. This idea proved to be attractive enough that we decided to continue such meetings. As the years went by, the workshops has transformed into regular symposia devoted to such fields like Machine Learning, Knowledge Discovery, Natural Language Processing, Knowledge Based Systems and Reasoning, and Soft Computing (i.e. Fuzzy and Rough Sets, Bayesian Networks, Neural Networks and Evolutionary Algorithms). At present, about 50 papers prepared by researches from Poland and other countries are usually presented.

Besides, for several years now, the symposia are accompanied by a number of tutorials, given by the outstanding scientists in their domain.
