AUSTRALASIAN CONFERENCE ON
ARTIFICIAL LIFE AND COMPUTATIONAL
INTELLIGENCE (ACALCI 2015)
5-7 FEBRUARY 2015

(extended)
THE CONFERENCE
While Artificial Life (AL) attempts to understand nature through modelling and simulation, Computational Intelligence (CI) attempts
to translate this understanding into algorithms for learning and optimisation. The Australasian Conference on Artificial Life and
Computational Intelligence features international research in AL and CI and provides a forum for innovative, interdisciplinary research
associated with the computational concepts underlying living and intelligent systems.
ACALCI 2015 will be organised in broad technical sessions that bring together experts from different fields in AL, CI and associated
areas. The forum also hopes to encourage ALCI applied research in domains as diverse as health, the creative arts and finance. ACALCI
encourages presentations, demonstrations, performances and discussions on topics including but not limited to:
Adaptive Ecologies
Affective Computing
ALCI in Design and Music
Ant Colony Optimization
Applications of ALCI
Autonomous Agents
Architecture and ALCI
Artificial Neural Networks
Artificial Societies and Markets
Augmented and Virtual Realities
Big Data
Bioinformatics
BCIs
Braintheory
Chatbots
Cognitive Neuroscience
Complex Systems
Computational Neuroscience
Consciousness and Mind
Creative Arts and CI
Data Mining
Deep Learning
Developmental Learning
Digital Societies
Dimensionality Reduction
Embodiment and Robotics
Emergence of Collaborative Behaviour
Emotional AI
Engineering of Consciousness and Mind
Epidemiology Simulations
SUBMISSION AND PRESENTATION
Authors are invited to submit papers that have between 6 and
14 pages in Springer LNAI style including results, figures and
references. Longer papers up to 20 pages can be considered in
exceptional cases. All relevant papers will be fully peer reviewed
by at least three reviewers from the ACALCI International Program
Committee before acceptance for publication in the proceedings.
It is expected that submitted manuscripts are original and have
neither been published nor submitted for publication elsewhere.
All accepted papers that are presented at the conference would
be published in the ACALCI 2015 proceedings as a LNAI volume
by Springer-Verlag. The LNAI volumes are indexed by: Scopus,
Zentralblatt MATH, IO-Port, MathSciNet, ACM Digital Library,
dblp, EI Engineering Index (Compendex and Inspec databases),
and the ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science
(CPCI-S), included in ISI Web of Science.
The conference will be three days of high quality presentations,
demonstrations and performances. In exceptional cases where
an author cannot travel, a presentation via skype or video
conferencing can be organised.
