******************************************************************************

in the context of the Joint Rough Set Symposium (JRS 2014), to be held
in Polytechnic University of Madrid & University of Granada, Spain,
July 9-13, 2014


Fuzzy Logic and Rough Set Theory are important tools to formalize and
handle imperfect information. The purpose of this special session is
to study advances and interactions among these approaches from various
perspectives.

A non-exhaustive list of topics includes:

Fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic
Interval-valued fuzzy sets
Fuzzy rough set models
Robust rough set models
Fuzzy information systems
Modal logic based approaches
Fuzzy logic programming

## New Submission deadline: March 16, 2014

Session organizers:
Lluis Godo, IIIA - CSIC, Bellaterra, Spain
Thomas Vetterlein, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria

General information on the JRS2014 conference (including submission
information) can be found below.

******************************************************************************

We welcome your contribution to the 2014 Joint Rough Set Symposium
(JRS 2014), a joint conference of the 9th International Conference on
Rough Sets and Current Trends in Computing (RSCTC 2014) and the 2nd
International Conference on Rough Sets and Intelligent Systems
Paradigms (RSEISP 2014).

JRS was organized for the first time in 2007 and was re-established in
2012 as the major flagship IRSS-sponsored event gathering different
rough-set-related conferences and workshops every year. This year, it
will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in
rough sets, fuzzy sets, intelligent systems, and complex data
analysis.

All accepted JSR2014 (RSCTC2014 and RSEISP2014) papers submitted
either to regular sessions or to special sessions will be published in
Springer's proceedings in the Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence
(LNCS/LNAI) Series, and authors of best papers will be invited to
extend their papers for inclusion in special issues of selected
ISI-ranked journals. Author(s) of the best paper will receive an award
sponsored by Springer.

The symposium will be held first in Granada and then in Madrid, two
prime locations within Spain. Transport between both venues will be
arranged by the conference organization.

We look forward to seeing you in Spain!
