CIGPU 2010 - CALL FOR PAPERS
======================================================================
Special session:
Computational Intelligence on Consumer Games and Graphics Hardware
(CIGPU 2010)
As part of:
IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence Conference 2010 (WCCI-2010)
======================================================================
The remarkable speed and price benefits of applying massively parallel
graphics hardware,
such as the GPU, to scientific computing tasks are becoming much more
widely known and
are attracting a great deal of interest. In computational
intelligence (CI), there have
already been impressive demonstrations of the power of this technology
but the research
area is still developing rapidly. There is much work to be done on
questions such as how
to make this raw power easily accessible for general CI research, how
to apply it to new
CI fields and how to continue to get the most out of it as the
technology develops.
There is also increasing interest in the use of related technologies
found in game
consoles such as Microsoft's Xbox, Sony's Playstation and the Cell
processor, and in
portable entertainment and cellular phone mobile devices.
Building on the success of previous CIGPU sessions and workshops,
CIGPU 2010 will further
explore the role that these technologies can play in CI research.
Submissions of
original research are invited on the use of parallel graphics hardware
for computational
intelligence. Work might involve exploring new techniques for
exploiting the hardware,
new algorithms to implement on the hardware, new applications for
accelerated CI, new
ways of making the technology available to CI researchers or the
utilisation of the next
generation of technologies.
Anyone who has implemented any computational intelligence technique
using any parallel
graphics hardware (or related - see below) will want to submit to this
special session.
Examples of appropriate platforms and types of hardware include but
are not limited to :
* Graphics cards and GPGPU platforms (such as CUDA, OpenCL etc)
* Portable devices (such as cell phones, PDA etc)
* Gaming consoles and their processors (such as Playstation (and the
Cell), Xbox etc)
* Larrabee
* Other mass market parallel electronic hardware
Examples of appropriate CI techniques include but are not limited to :
* ALife
* Ant Colony Optimisation
* Artificial Neural Networks
* Bayesian Networks
* Computational Biology or Bioinformatics
* Classification
* Data mining
* Differential Evolution
* Evolutionary Computation (such as genetic programming, genetic algorithms,
evolutionary programming etc)
* Fuzzy Logic
* Hybrid computational intelligence techniques
* Parallel search algorithms
* Robotics
* Support Vector Machines
