The organization of the workshop is based on a new perspective of Web
Intelligence (WI) research from the viewpoint of Brain Informatics.
Brain
Informatics (BI) is a new interdisciplinary field to study human information
processing mechanism systematically from both macro and micro points of view by
cooperatively using experimental cognitive neuroscience and WI centric advanced
information technology. We argue that new instrumentation (fMRI etc.) and
advanced information technology are causing an impending revolution in Web
intelligence and Brain Sciences (BS). This revolution is bi-directional: new
understanding and discovery of human intelligence models in BS will yield a new
generation of WI research and development; and WI based portal techniques will
provide a new powerful platform for BS. |
|
| The synergy between WI with BI will yield profound advances in our analyzing
and understanding of the mechanism of data, knowledge, intelligence and wisdom,
as well as their relationship, organization and creation process. It means that
fundamental and implementation of Web intelligence will be studied as a
central topic and in a unique way. It will fundamentally change the nature of
information technology in general and artificial intelligence in
particular, towards human-level Web intelligence. |
|
| In summary, the main features of WImBI'06 workshop include: |
- This workshop will be the first in the field to focus on the
interplay between
(a) intelligent technologies (especially in the context of Web
Intelligence (WI)) and
(b) studies on human intelligence as explored in
neuroscience,
cognitive psychology, and brain science instrumentation.
- This workshop will be by invitation only. All the invited
attendees are presently world leaders in their respective areas, and can be expected to build a strong synergy and momentum for the
"WI meets BI" research in the near future.
- The post-workshop Springer LNCS/LNAI State-of-the-Art Survey
will
become a milestone publication,
with research visions and
blueprints, to CS scientists and practitioners at large in this
exciting interdisciplinary area.
Therefore, all the full-length
papers will be carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion.
- We will arrange to visit the International WIC Institute that
is
focusing on the "WI meets BI" research and to have a very
interesting social program.
