*Brief Introduction to FSDM2020:
Supported by Huaqiao University, the 6th International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Data Mining (FSDM2020) will be held during November 13-16, 2020 at Xiamen City, one of the most beautiful seaside cities in southeast China.
Building on the preceding FSDM Conferences (FSDM2015 in Shanghai, FSDM2016 in Macau, FSDM2017 in Taiwan, FSDM2018 in Bangkok and FSDM2019 in Kitakyushu), FSDM2020 is dedicated to cover all theoretical and experimental aspects of fuzzy system and data mining with aims to provide a professional academic platform for all experts, scholars, researchers in field of fuzzy theory, fuzzy control, algorithm, artificial intelligence, data mining to present their latest findings and research results, to facilitate networking and in-depth discussion with peers all over the world. For the past four years, nearly 700 experts, scholars and researchers from all over the world have participated in FSDM conferences.

The conference consists of four parts: Keynote Speeches, Invited Speeches, Oral Presentations and Poster Presentations.

FSDM conference, in cooperation with IOS press, provides a publication platform for scholars and researchers to publish their new research results within the topics of fuzzy theory, fuzzy control, artificial intelligence, algorithm and data analysis, etc. In the past four years, over 500 papers have been published in IOS Book Series: Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence and Applications-Fuzzy Systems and Data Mining (Indexed by EI Compendex, CPCI, Scopus, etc.). Up to now, four conference proceedings have been published and indexed successfully. FSDM2019 conference proceeding also has been published by IOS Press and it is now under indexing by EI.
