Introduction

Fuzzy Days in Dortmund were held for the first time in 1991. Initially, the conference was intended for scientists and practitioners as a platform for discussions on theory and applications of fuzzy logic. Early on, synergetic links with neural networks were included and the conference evolved gradually to embrace the full spectrum of what is now called Computational Intelligence (CI). Therefore it seemed logical to launch the 4th Fuzzy Days in 1994 as a conference for CI - one of the world's first conferences featuring fuzzy logic, neural networks and evolutionary algorithms together in one event. Following this highly successful tradition, the 7th Fuzzy Days' aim is to provide once again an international forum for reporting significant results on the theory and applications of CI-methods. Emphasis shall also be put on the potential resulting from their combinations. Hot topics like CI and the internet will be discussed.
