Call for papers
Special Section on Advances and Applications in Nonlinear Time Series Methods
The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (IEICE)
We are pleased to announce a Special Section (SS) of the IEICE’s new journal, “Nonlinear Theory and Its Applications,
IEICE,” to be published in April 2013. The major part of this SS will focus on recent progress on both methodological
advances in and novel applications of nonlinear time series methods. The topics of interest within the scope of this SS
include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Nonlinear time series methods for scalar time series: embedding, invariants and non-stationarity
- Embedding and reconstruction
- Multivariate recordings - causality and correlation
- Novel network and recurrence based methods
- Complex networks, complex systems and time series
- Applications: climate, physiology and medicine, finance, physical processes
Papers submitted to this SS will be peer-reviewed under the handling of the editorial committee of the SS. The
deadline of the paper submission is July 10, 2012. Prospective authors are requested to carefully follow the submission
process described below:
(1) Submit a paper using the IEICE Web site (https://review.ieice.org/regist_common_e.aspx?society=NOLTA).
