                        Extended Deadline

Dear colleagues,

deadline for submitting your contribution to AGOP special sessions at IPMU 2008
has been extended of 2 weeks. So new deadline is 23rd December 2007.

Please remember that submission is available at
http://www.cise.rcost.unisannio.it/ipmu2008.

Authors that already submitted their contribution will be able to
upload a new version
until the system is open.

NEWS: Deadline for FUZZ-IEEE 2008 has been extended to 15th December 2008.
Please consider to submit your contribution to the special session on
Aggregatiom Functions.

Call For Papers
---------------------------------

Aggregation functions (also known as Aggregation Operators, AGOP) play a
fundamental role in processing information under uncertainty, vagueness
and imprecision. In the past years, we assisted to relevant theoretical
advances in this field. Traditional aggregation operations such as the
weighted average are now acknowledged as particular cases of more
general families of aggregation operations, such as Choquet integrals.
Triangular norms and conorms, uninorms, symmetric sums, OWA to name a
few, are widely used families of AGOP. Along theoretical aspects, an
increasing interest to practical applications in now emerging. This
requires to face new challenges, regarding computational and domain
specific issues. For this reason we decided to expand the opportunity of
discussing advances and trends in two sessions: the first focused on
theoretical aspects, and the second on practice.

Aggregation Functions: Theory
----------------------------------------------

This session is devoted to the discussion of recent advances in the
theory of aggregation functions, concerning characterizations and
generalizations of AGOP families, and including but not limited to
triangular norms, uninorms, fuzzy measures, OWA, copulas, quasi-copulas,
aggregation on ordinal scale.

Organizers: T. Calvo, R. Mesiar, J. Torrens

Aggregation Functions in Practice
----------------------------------------------

This special session will focus on issues related to the practical
application of aggregations functions. Specific topics would include:
practical constructions of AGOP, real-world applications, relationships
to random sets, identification of fuzzy measures, weighting functions
for AGOP, AGOP with specific properties, parameter learning.

Organizers: G. Beliakov, T. Calvo, L. Troiano

We would be glad to receive your interest to these sessions. For that,
we need a tentative title and a short abstract of your contribution by
October 8th. Please send your proposal to [EMAIL PROTECTED], specifying
the session you are interested in. After, we will expect to receive your
paper according to conference deadlines.

Submission of papers: Dec 23, 2007
Notification of acceptance: Feb 16, 2008
Submission of final versions of accepted papers: Mar 23, 2008
Conference in Malaga: June 22-27, 2008

More information are available at

We are looking forward to meet you in Malaga.

Yours Sincerely
