Conference Description:

CiCOM 2021 will provide an opportunity to exchange innovative research on Computational Intelligence and Communications. Computational Intelligence makes use of biologically and linguistically motivated computational paradigms including neural networks, fuzzy logic systems, and evolutionary computation, as well as social reasoning, artificial life, ambient intelligence, deep learning, and the likes. New technologies in communications bring new application paradigms for healthcare, transportation, education, agriculture, and social networks. With the arrival of 5G and 6G networks technologies, we need to address new research challenges, including the tight integration of machine intelligence, efficient and reliable networking, interoperability, scalability and security.
