Neural Forecasting Competition @ ISF'08
The 28th International Symposium on Forecasting
June 22-25, 2008 - Nice, France

General Conference Info

The 28th International Symposium on Forecasting (ISF'08, www.forecasters.org/isf) - now running in its 28th year (!!!) - is the premier multidisciplinary forecasting conference, attracting the world's leading forecasting researchers, practitioners, and students. Through a combination of keynote speaker presentations, academic sessions, workshops, and social programs, the ISF provides many excellent opportunities for networking, learning, and fun.

The 28th Annual International Symposium on Forecasting will be held on June 22-25, 2007 at the Nice SAS Radisson Plaza.  Papers on all aspects of forecasting are welcome.  The objectives of the symposium are to help disseminate knowledge about new developments in statistical and judgmental forecasting methods and to promote discussion about forecasting among academicians and practitioners. The organizers welcome the attendance of delegates from diverse fields, including Economics, Finance, Business, Public Policy, Statistics, Climate and Environment, Information Systems, Psychology, Demography, Political Science, Energy and Computational Intelligence. 

Only abstracts (300 words maximum) are submitted to the conference - NO full papers will be submitted or published. Abstracts will be peer reviewed and accepted / rejected for formal presentation. Abstracts may be submitted online at the ISF'08 abstract submissions page of the ISF'08 conference website. Please submitt it using the "Subject Area" = "Neural Nets". The deadline for electronic submission of abstracts is February 29, 2008.
