Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding and participating in conferences related to genetic algorithms, with a focus on international opportunities. Participants share their experiences and seek advice on how to locate suitable conferences for presenting academic work, particularly in the context of applying to graduate programs.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty in finding organized international conferences and questions the effectiveness of manual searches.
  • Another suggests consulting faculty for advice on conference opportunities, but acknowledges that the information received was limited to domestic conferences.
  • Some participants inquire about the relevance of local conferences and their potential benefits for undergraduate applications to graduate schools.
  • There is a discussion about the participant's essay topic, which involves analyzing ant colony behavior in relation to biocomputing.
  • One participant emphasizes the importance of presenting at any conference, even domestic ones, for enhancing graduate school applications.
  • Links to specific conference calendars are provided as potential resources for finding relevant events.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the best methods for finding international conferences. There are differing views on the value of domestic conferences versus international ones, and some uncertainty exists regarding the participant's academic status and the appropriateness of their work for various conferences.

Contextual Notes

Participants express limitations in their search for conferences, including a lack of centralized resources and the challenge of finding well-organized events. The discussion also reflects varying levels of academic experience among participants, which may influence their perspectives on conference participation.

Who May Find This Useful

Students and researchers interested in genetic algorithms, particularly those seeking conference opportunities for presenting their work and enhancing their academic profiles.

conferences where!?

pls help if you know a way for participating in a conferance,my essay is nearly abut genetic algorithms,if there is a special site for upcomming conferances,manual searches did not help,thanx previously
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Did you ask faculty at your university for advice?
 
Ofcourse,but they gave me some information about domestic conferences,which are not appropriate.
I have found some,but they are very inorganized,I mean I wanted to know if there is an official way for find and choose a conference which is held in the world ,in near future,or I should rely on google searches!
thanks a lot

"Essay"?

"Nearly" about?

International conferences? (What locality is "local" for you? Just curious why you find local conferences so objectionable.)

I don't know of any searchable websites which list international conferences in all areas, but professional societies often list upcoming conferences in their subject of study. Check recent issues of journals analogous to Notices of the American Mathematical Society at your local research library.

Other than that, Googling plus persistence should help.

Perhaps if you posted the abstract here, someone may have a suggestion.
 
locally,I mean the conferences which are held in my country,a domestic conference which is not really evaluated.
I want to examine my chance for competing on international conferences,because I need its approvation for applying to a good unversity.
its not totally finished,but the general aspect is about "biocomputing"
Its about an analyse of how intelligent "ant colonies" treat each other to find a most feasible solution to an emprical problem,with too many iterations,and which of them performs better than others.
 
I've never seen a talk at a conference by anyone who hasn't, at least, achieved a first-degree.

And, once, more you haven't specified your country.

Good luck tho' :smile:

I don't really understand what you mean by this.

What level of study are you at? Are you currently an undergraduate student looking to apply to grad school? If so, and that's what it sounds like, then if you present a paper at a "domestic" conference I'm sure it will help you massively in applications-- it doesn't need to be an international conference. The other possibility is that you are already a grad student, but this seems unlikely. Why don't you follow the advice of members of your faculty. Perhaps they have told you about these conferences in your own country for a reason-- they may be more suitable to your work than any others, for example.
 
actually I`m ungrad,or better saying nearly graduated with lttle units left.
I live in Iran,I had some mailings with some universities in sweden and U.S,and gathering information about the way they choose new students.
I`ve found out that such kind of work in ungrad level may help to get a good admission from a better unversity.
 
  • #10
and I should add that its a group work,one in BS,and one in MS

I'd first probably give your presentation in whatever colloquium format your department (at your university) uses.

ie. Speak to your supervisor and arrange to give the talk to your peers.
