Workshop objectives

MCS 2009 is the eighth workshop in a well-established series of meetings providing an international forum for the discussion of issues in multiple classifier system design.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers from diverse communities concerned with this topic, including neural network, pattern recognition, machine learning and statistics.

The special focus of MCS 2009 will be on the application of multiple classifier systems in remote sensing.

Workshop topics

Papers describing original work in the following and related research topics are welcome:

Foundations of multiple classifier systems
Methods for classifier fusion
Design of multiple classifier systems
Neural network ensembles
Bagging and boosting
Mixtures of experts
Algebraic and discrete mathematical methods, intelligent agents, etc.
Applications, especially in remote sensing
