*ABOUT THE WORKSHOP*

===========================

The 1st International Workshop on Evolutionary Computing for Health Care at
WorldCIST 2021 (ECHC2021), aims to be a forum where researchers,
practitioners and industry representatives have the opportunity to present
and discuss ongoing work. Similarly, explains the systems and effective
research contribution in health care using evolutionary computing
approaches. Evolutionary Computing covers a number of nature-inspired
computational methodologies, mainly Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs),
Fuzzy Sets, Genetic Algorithms (GAs), Swarm Intelligence, and their
hybridizations for addressing the real-world problems. Due to the several
reasons of conventional modeling such as complexity, existent of
uncertainties, and the stochastic nature of the processes, conventional
modeling approach is useless. According to the success of evolutionary
computing methods and techniques in health care applications, it can
expected that these methods can also be applied successfully to solve the
medical issues in terms of Cancer Diagnosis, Brain Tumor, Diabetic
Retinopathy, Heart disease and presentation of images captured via X-Ray,
Ultrasound, MRI, Nuclear Medicine and Visual Imaging technologies. In this
context, computational intelligence paradigms are comprising of numerous
branches (including Neural Networks, Swarm Intelligence, Expert Systems,
Evolutionary Computing, Fuzzy Systems, and Artificial Immune systems) can
play a vital role for handling the different aspects of health care.

We invite such papers which target the creativity, design, and
engineering-related challenges such as new algorithms, systems,
methodology, datasets, evaluations, surveys, reproduced results, and
negative results.

*SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*

===========================

Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers for evaluation by the
Program’s Committee of workshop. All papers must follow the formatting
rules for Proceedings in Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing
Series (see Instructions for Authors at Springer Website) and be written in
English.



Submissions must be of one of two types: Full paper: Finished and
consolidated R&D works. These papers are assigned a 10-page limit and Short
paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results open to discussion.
These papers are assigned a 7-page limit.



All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at least
two/three members of the Program Committee of the specific workshop. The
version of papers for evaluation by the Program Committee, saved in PDF
format, must not include identification, e-mail and affiliation of the
authors. This information must only be available in the camera-ready
version of accepted papers, saved in Word or Latex format and also in PDF
format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent to Publish form
filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the conference management system.



Full and short papers accepted and registered will be published in
Proceedings by Springer, will be submitted for indexation by ISI,
EI-Compendex, SCOPUS and DBLP, among others, and will be available in the
SpringerLink Digital Library. The authors of the best-selected papers will
be invited to extend them for publication in renowned international
journals indexed by ISI, SCOPUS and DBLP (see WorldCIST conference website
for more details).
