Printedonacid-freepaper SpringerInternationalPublishingAGSwitzerlandispartofSpringerScience+BusinessMedia (www.springer.com) Preface The computationalparadigm considered here is a conceptual, theoretical, and formal framework situated above machines and living creatures (two instantiations), suffi- cientlysolid,andstillnonexclusive,thatallowsus: 1. to help neuroscientists to formulate intentions, questions, experiments, methods, and explanation mechanisms assuming that neural circuits are the psychological supportofcalculus; 2. to help scientists and engineers from the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and knowledge engineering (KE) to model, formalize, and program the computable partofhumanknowledge; 3. toestablishaninteractionframeworkbetweennaturalsystemcomputationandar- tificialsystemcomputationinbothdirections,fromArtificialtoNaturalandfrom NaturaltoArtificial. With these global purposes, Prof. José Mira organizedthe 1st InternationalWork Conference on the Interplaybetween Natural and Artificial Computation,which took place in Las Palmasde Gran Canaria,Canary Islands(Spain),10 yearsago,tryingto contributetobothdirectionsoftheinterplay. Today,thehybridizationbetweensocialsciencesandsocialbehaviorswithrobotics, neurobiologyandcomputing,ethicsandneuroprosthetics,cognitivesciencesandneu- rocomputing,neurophysiologyandmarketingisgivingrisetonewconceptsandtools thatcanbeappliedtoICTsystems,aswellastonaturalsciencefields.ThroughIWINAC weprovideaforuminwhichresearchindifferentfieldscanconvergetocreatenewcom- putationalparadigmsthatareonthefrontierbetweenNaturalsciencesandInformation technologies. Asa multidisciplinaryforum,IWINACisopentoanyestablishedinstitutionsand researchlaboratoriesactivelyworkinginthefieldofthisinterplay.Butbeyondachiev- ingcooperationbetweendifferentresearchrealms,wewishtoactivelyencouragecoop- erationwiththeprivatesector,particularlySMEs,asawayofbridgingthegapbetween frontier science and societal impact, and young researchers in order to promote this scientificfield. In this edition, four main themes outline the conference topics: gerontechnology ande-therapy,Brain–ComputerInterfaces,Biomedicalimagingapplicationsforhealth, andartificialvisionandrobotics. Gerontechnologyis an interdisciplinaryfield combininggerontologyandtechnol- ogy.Gerontechnologyaimsatmatchingsystemstohealth,housing,mobility,commu- nication,leisure, andwork ofthe elderly.The developmentofcomputingsystems for gerontechnologyhasturnedintoachallengingactivityrequiringdisciplinesasdiverse asartificialintelligence,human–computerinteraction,andwirelesssensornetworksto worktogetherinordertoprovidesolutionsabletosatisfythisgrowingsocietaldemand. Brain–ComputerInterfacesimplementanewparadigmincommunicationnetworks, namely Brain Area Networks. In this paradigm, our brain inputs data (external VI Preface stimuli), performs multiple media-access control by means of cognitive tasks (selec- tiveattention),processestheinformation(perception),takesadecision(cognition)and, eventually,transmitsdatabacktothesource(bymeansofaBCI),thusclosingthecom- municationloop.Theobjectivesincludeneuro-technologies(e.g.innovativeEEG/ECG/ fNIRSheadsets,integratedstimulation-acquisitiondevices,etc.),Tele-services(e.g.ap- plications in Telemedicine, tele-rehabilitation programs, tele-control, mobile applica- tions,etc.),innovativebiosignalprocessingalgorithms,trainingtechniques,andnovel emergingparadigms. Imageunderstandingisaresearchareainvolvingbothfeatureextractionandobject identification within images from a scene, and a posterior treatment of this informa- tion in order to establish relationships between these objects with a specific goal. In biomedicalandindustrialscenarios,themainpurposeofthisdisciplineis,givenavisual problem,to manageall aspects of priorknowledge,fromstudy start-up andinitiation through data collection, quality control, expert independent interpretation, to design anddevelopmentofsystemsinvolvingimageprocessingcapableoftacklingwiththese tasks.BrainimagingusingEEGtechniquesordifferentMRIsystemscanhelpinsome neuraldisorders,likeepilepsy,Alzheimer,etc. Overthelastdecadestherehasbeenanincreasinginterestinusingmachinelearn- ingmethodscombinedwithcomputervisiontechniquestocreateautonomoussystems thatsolvevisionproblemsindifferentfields.Thisresearchinvolvesalgorithmsandar- chitecturesforreal-timeapplicationsintheareasofcomputervision,imageprocessing, biometrics, virtual and augmented reality, neural networks, intelligent interfaces, and biomimeticobject-visionrecognition.Autonomousrobotnavigationsetsoutenormous theoreticalandappliedchallengestoadvancedroboticsystemsusingthesetechniques.
