Theworkshop,andthusthisbook,isorganizedinthreemaincomponents,twospe- cial sessions and a group of regular sessions featuring different aspects and point of viewsofartificialneuralnetworksandnaturalintelligence,alsoincludingapplications ofpresentcompellinginterest. Morethan60paperswerepresentedattheWorkshop,andmostofthemarereported here. The review process has been carried out in two steps, one before and one after the workshop in order to meet Publisher’s requirements. The selection of the papers was made through peer-review process, where each submission was evaluated by at leasttworeviewers.Thesubmittedpaperswereauthoredbypeerscholarsfromdiffer- ent countries (the Italian componentwas anyway preponderant).The acceptance rate is thus high also because most of the attendees are involved in SIREN research and organizationactivitiesformorethan20years.Inadditiontoregularpapers,thetechni- calprogramfeaturedkeynoteplenarylecturesby someworldwiderenownedscientist (SooYoungLee,SouthKorea;GaneshK.Venayagamoorthy,USA;JacekZurada,USA; GüntherPalm,Germany;AlessandroVinciarelli,UK;DaniloMandic,UK).Oneofthe twospecialsessionswassupportedbytheEU-sponsoredCOSTAction2102thatclosed hisworkonFebruary2011eventhoughtheMembersoftheActionarestillnetworking andcollaboratinginscientificactivities.
