A random but revealing sample includes: reducing urban concentration, entropy topography in epilep- tic electroencephalography, phytoplanktonic species recognition, revealing the structureofchildhoodabdominalpaindata,robotcontrol,discriminatingangry and happy facial expressions, flood forecasting, and assessing credit worthiness. The diverse nature of applications demonstrates the vitality of neural comput- ing and related soft computing approaches, and their relevance to many key contemporary technological challenges. It also illustrates the value of EANN in bringing together a broad spectrum of delegates from across the world to learn from each other’s related methods. Variations and extensions of many methods are well represented in the proceedings, ranging from support vector machines, fuzzy reasoning,and Bayesianmethods to snap-drift and spiking neurons. This year EANN accepted approximately 40% of submitted papers for full- length presentation at the conference. All members of the Program Committee were askedto participate in the reviewingprocess.The standardof submissions was high, according to the reviewers, who did an excellent job. The Program and Organizing Committees thank them. Approximately 20% of submitted pa- pers will be chosen, the best according to the reviews, to be extended and re- viewedagainforinclusioninaspecialissueofthejournalNeuralComputingand Applications. We hope that these proceedings will help to stimulate further research and development of new applications and modes of neural computing. August 2009 Dominic Palmer-Brown Organization EANN 2009 was organized by the School of Computing, IT and Engineering, University of East London in cooperation with the Faculty of Computing, Lon- don Metropolitan University.
