IJCNN'07 Forecasting Competition NN3
**************************************
You have 9 days left to participate in the IJCNN'07 Forecasting
Competition NN3, using any method from computational intelligence!
The competition is held at the International Conference on Neural
Networks, Orlando, USA, August 12-17, 2007.
Your opportunities: conference publication & presentation, invitation to
journal & book publications, cash prices & awards!
********************************
Objectives
********************************
Forecast 11 or 111 time series as accurately as possible, using methods
from computational intelligence and a consistent methodology. We hope to
evaluate progress in modelling neural networks for forecasting & to
disseminate knowledge on "best practices". The competition is for
academic purposes and supported by a grant from SAS & the International 数据挖掘研究院
Institute of Forecasters (IIF).
********************************
Methods
********************************
The prediction competition is open to all methods of computational
intelligence, incl. feed-forward and recurrent neural networks, fuzzy
predictors, decision & regression tress, support vector regression,
hybrid approaches etc. used in financial forecasting, statistical
prediction, time series analysis
********************************
Publication of Results
********************************
The paper submitted to the IJCNN'07 in Orlando, USA, will be presented
at a dedicated workshop on 17 August 2007 of the main conference. All
accepted IJCNN'07 submissions will be
- considered for a special issue of the International Journal of
Forecasting (IJF, Elsevier) on "Neural Networks for Forecasting" (ISI
