Special Session on Fuzzy Set Approaches to Geosciences

FSAG@FUZZ-IEEE 2017


Artificial Intelligence Engineering & Computer Science (General) Software Systems



Geosciences are fields related to the usage of computer sciences to solve problems of Earth, atmospheric, oceanographic, and environmental sciences. The interdisciplinary technologies have been applied to many real-life problems in geosciences, including soft computing techniques. Today, computer and geosciences play an important role in bringing the advanced technologies to the life. It has been already demonstrated that fuzzy logic offers a wealth of effective techniques for solving many problems in geosciences.

Objectives and topics:
The aim of the session is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and discussions on soft computing techniques and algorithms for geosciences. The special session is therefore open to high quality submissions from researchers in these areas. Authors are invited to submit their original and unpublished work in the following areas including (but not limited to):
- Fuzzy systems and hybrid systems for Geosciences.
- Fuzzy clustering in remote sensing image processing.
- Advanced fuzzy sets (type-2/intuitionistic fuzzy sets, etc.) and systems for applications in geosciences.
- Multi-spectral/Hyper-spectral satellite image analysis.
- Geography Information Systems.
- Big data in geosciences using soft computing techniques.
