2011 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games, CIG 2011, Seoul, South Korea, August 31 - September 3, 2011

work put in by the team from Rees Management Group led by Jane Shepard was also instrumental in the successful organization of the conference. In addition to the proceedings, IJCNN 2011 also generated other useful multimedia. The IEEE CIS VP for Education, Jennie Si, organized the recording of all plenary talks, which will be available through the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. All talks in the “From Brains to Machines” symposium were also recorded, and will be made available to the public. A special issue of Neural Networks with expanded versions of selected IJCNN papers will be published in mid-2012, edited by Jean-Philippe Thivierge and the members of the IJCNN 2011 Executive Committee. Three decades ago, the computer revolution took root and flourished in the fertile soil of what came to be known as Silicon Valley. It is appropriate that those who are igniting another technological revolution to create truly life-like intelligence assembled in the heart of Silicon Valley once again to exchange ideas and celebrate the future. It was a great honor for me to be a part of this exciting event. I am sure that IJCNN 2011 will be the prelude to greater growth and success for the entire field of neural networks.
