Welcome Message The organizing committee welcomes you to the 2015 International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA 2015), held in Madrid, Spain, on September 2-4, 2015. This meeting series has been initiated in 2005 by Yildiz Technical University, and grew up year after year. This edition has been technically supported by the IEEE Spanish Section, supported and promoted by Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM) and Yildiz Technical University. The organization of this meeting has been supported by the Technical School of Engineering at UAM. The conference aims to bring together researchers from the entire spectrum of the multi- disciplinary fields of Intelligent Systems (IS) community, and establish effective means of communication between them. In particular, it focuses on all aspects of IS and the related applications, from the points of view of both theory and practice. Specifically: artificial intelligence algorithms, data mining, evolutionary computation, expert systems, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms, machine learning, memetic computing, artificial neural networks, natural language processing, smart sensors and materials, hardware implementations for IS, human-computer interaction, intelligent agents, intelligent applications in biomedical engineering, intelligent approaches in robotic and automation, intelligent approaches in signal and image processing, intelligent approaches in system identification/modeling, intelligent control systems, intelligent defense/security systems, intelligent life, and some other topics related to IS. The three-days conference program provides a friendly forum for the attendees to carry out presentations, information exchanges, extensive discussions on theory, methodology and applications in the field of interest of the conference, as well as to foster networking, planning for future collaborations and new research projects that will further advance intelligent systems and the related applications. To promote interaction and discussion in the audience, enough time is allotted to presenters, not only to introduce their achievements, but also to engage in extended discussions with the participants. Subjects of discussion include, but are not restricted to, critical evaluation of approaches and results, the rationale underlying particular methodologies, experimental and theoretical examinations, practical difficulties, insights, and extensions to other application areas. Finally, this year we are celebrating the tenth anniversary of INISTA. In this very special occasion, we hope you will have a challenging and productive experience, and from the organization we wish you enjoying this new edition in Madrid.
