Through IWINAC we provide a forum in which researchindifferentfieldscanconvergetocreatenewcomputationalparadigmsthatare on the frontier between neural sciences and information technologies. As a multidisciplinary forum, IWINAC is open to any established institutions and research laboratories actively working in the field of this interplay. But beyond achievingcooperationbetweendifferentresearchrealms,wewishtoactivelyencourage cooperation with the private sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs),asawayofbridgingthegapbetweenfrontierscienceandsocietalimpact,and young researchers in order to promote this scientific field. In this edition, there were four main themes highlighting the conference topics: affectivecomputing,signalprocessingandmachinelearningappliedtobiomedicaland neuroscience applications, deep learning and big data, and biomedical applications. Traditionally,whenICTresearchhasbeenperformedinrelationtothehumanbrain, the focus has been on the cognitive brain. Primary research in computer science, engi- neering, psychology, and neuroscience has been aimed at developing devices that rec- ognizehumanaffectsandemotions.Incomputerscience,affectivecomputingisabranch of the study and development of artificial intelligence that deals with the design of systemsanddevicesthatcanrecognize,interpret,andprocesshumanemotions.Itisan interdisciplinaryfieldspanningcomputersciences,psychology,andcognitivescience. Emotion recognition refers to the problem of inferring the significance of human expressionsofdifferentemotions.Thisinferenceisnaturalforhumanobserversbutisa non-trivial problem for machines. The data gathered on the cues humans use to per- ceive emotions in others may be used in machine-learning techniques. Emotional speech processing recognizes the user's emotional state by analyzing speech patterns. EEG analysis may also detect human emotions by studying the positive and negative peaks located in specific areas around 450 ms after stimulus induction. Another area within affective computing is the design of computational devices proposed to exhibit either innate emotional capabilities or that are capable of convincingly simulating emotions. Robots may be used for embodying personality traits that induce desired emotions in humans and behave in an appropriate manner when recognizing human emotional state. Neuroprosthetics may be used for treating emotional disorders by electrical stimulation of certain specific areas in the thalamus or other neural centers. The increasing spread of in vivo imaging technologies, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), functional MRI (fMRI), single photon emissioncomputedtomography(SPECT),positronemissiontomography(PET)andother non-invasive techniques such as electroencephalography (EEG) or magnetoencephalog- raphy(MEG),havemeantabreakthroughinthediagnosisofseveralpathologies,suchas Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, etc. Today, signal processing and machine VI Preface learningmethodsarecrucialassupportingtoolsforabetterunderstandingofdiseases.In thisway,signalprocessingandmachinelearningappliedtobiomedicalandneuroscience applicationsbecameanemergentanddisruptivefieldofresearch. Deeplearninghaspresentedabreakthroughintheartificialintelligencecommunity. Thebestperformancesattainedsofarinmanyfields,suchascomputervisionornatural languageprocessing,havebeenovertakenbythesenovelparadigmstoapointthatonly ten years ago was pure science fiction. In addition, this technology has been open sourcedbythemainartificialintelligence(AI)companies,therebyandhencemakingit quite straightforward to design, train, and integrate deep-learning based systems. Moreover, the amount of data available every day is not only enormous, but, growing at an exponential rate over the past few years, there has been an increasing interest in usingmachine-learningmethodstoanalyzeandvisualizemassivedatageneratedfrom very different sources and with many different features: social networks, surveillance systems, smart cities, medical diagnosis, business, cyberphysical systems, or media digital data. This special session is designed to serve researchers and developers to publish original, innovative, and state-of-the art machine-learning algorithms and architectures to analyze and visualize large amounts of data. Finally, biomedical applications are essential in IWINAC meetings. For instance, brain–computer interfaces (BCI) implement a new paradigm in communication net- works, namely, brain area networks. In this paradigm, our brain inputs data (external stimuli),performsmultiplemedia-accesscontrolbymeansofcognitivetasks(selective attention), processes the information (perception), makes a decision (cognition) and, eventually, transmits data back to the source (by means of a BCI), thus closing the communication loop. Image understanding is a research area involving both feature extraction and object identification within images from a scene, and a posterior treat- mentofthisinformationinordertoestablishrelationshipsbetweentheseobjectswitha specificgoal.Inbiomedicalandindustrialscenarios,themainpurposeofthisdiscipline is, given a visual problem, to manage all aspects of prior knowledge, from study start-up and initiation through data collection, quality control, expert independent interpretation, to design and development of systems involving image processing capable of tackling these tasks. These areas are clear examples of innovative appli- cations in biology or medicine. The wider view of the computational paradigm gives us more elbow room to accommodate the results of the interplay between nature and computation. The IWINAC forum thus becomes a methodological approximation (set of intentions, questions, experiments, models, algorithms, mechanisms, explanation procedures, and engineeringandcomputationalmethods)tothenaturalandartificialperspectivesofthe mindembodimentproblem,bothinhumansandinartifacts.Thisisthephilosophythat prevails at IWINAC meetings, the “interplay” movement between the natural and the artificial, facing this same problem every two years. This synergistic approach will permitusnotonlytobuildnewcomputationalsystemsbasedonthenaturalmeasurable phenomena, but also to understand many of the observable behaviors inherent to natural systems. Thedifficultyofbuildingbridgesbetweennaturalandartificialcomputationwasone of the main motivations for the organization of IWINAC 2017. The IWINAC 2017 proceedings contain the works selected by the Scientific Committee from nearly 200 Preface VII submissions, after thereviewprocess. Thefirstvolume,entitledNaturalandArtificial Computation for Biomedicine and Neuroscience, includes all the contributions mainly related to the methodological, conceptual, formal, and experimental developments in the fields of neural sciences and health. The second volume, entitled Biomedical ApplicationsBasedonNaturalandArtificialComputing,containsthepapersrelatedto bioinspired programming strategies and all the contributions related to computational solutions to engineering problems in different application domains. An event of the nature of IWINAC 2017 could not be organized without the col- laborationofagroupofinstitutionsandpeoplewhomwewouldliketothank,starting with UNED and Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. The collaboration of the Universidade daCoruñawas crucial,aswas theefficientworkofthelocalOrganizing Committee,chairbyRichardDurowiththeclosecollaborationofJoséSantosandtheir colleagues José Antonio Becerra Permuy, Francisco Bellas Bouza, Abraham Prieto, Fernando López Peña, Álvaro Deibe Díaz, and Blanca Priego.
