The International Society of Applied Intelligence (ISAI) through its annual IEA/AIE conferences provides a forum for international sci- entific and industrialcommunity in the field of Applied ArtificialIntelligence to interactively participate in developing intelligent systems, which are needed to solve twenty first century’s ever growing problems in almost every field. The23rdInternationalConferenceonIndustrial,EngineeringandOtherAp- plications of Applied Intelligence Systems (IEA/AIE-2010) held in Co´rdoba, Spain,followedIEA/AIEtraditionofprovidinganinternationalscientificforum for researchers in the field of applied artificial intelligence. The presentations of theinvitedspeakersandauthorsmainlyfocusedondevelopingandstudyingnew methods to cope with the problems posed by real-life applications of artificial intelligence.Paperspresentedinthetwentythirdconferenceintheseriescovered theoriesas wellas applications ofintelligent systems insolving complex real-life problems. We received 297 papers for the main track, selecting 119 of them with the highest quality standards. Each paper was revised by at least three members of the ProgramCommittee.The papersinthe proceedingscovera wide number of topics including: applications to robotics, business and financial markets,bioin- formaticsandbiomedicine,applicationsofagent-basedsystems,computervision, control,simulationandmodeling,data mining,decisionsupportsystems,evolu- tionary computation and its applications, fuzzy systems and their applications, heuristic optimization methods and swarm intelligence, intelligent agent-based systems,internetapplications,knowledgemanagementandknowledgebasedsys- tems, machine learning,neuralnetworkapplications,optimizationandheuristic search, and other real-life applications. The main track was complemented with 13 special sessions whose topics included softcomputing in informationaccesssystems onthe web,data prepro- cessing in data mining, engineering knowledge and semantic systems, applied intelligent systems for future classrooms, soft computing methods for environ- mentalandindustrialapplications,softcomputingincomputervisionandimage processing,distributedproblemsolvingwithartificialintelligencetechniques,en- semble learning, interactive and cognitive environments, context information in intelligent systems, data analysis, optimization and visualization for bioinfor- matics and neuroscience, industrial applications of data mining and semantic and linguistic visual information. Together, these papers highlight new trends and frontiers of applied artifi- cial intelligence and show how new research could lead to new and innovative VI Preface applications. They also show that new trends are appearing to cope with the increasingly difficult new challenges that are faced by artificial intelligence. We hope you will find them interesting and useful for your own research. Theconferencealsoinvitedfiveoutstandingscholarstogiveplenarykeynotes speeches.

We would like to express our thanks to the members of the Program Com- mitteeandallthereviewersofthespecialsessionsfortheirhardwork.Thiswork is central to the success of any conference. The conference was organized by the ResearchGroup on Computational In- telligence and Bioinformatics of the University of Co´rdoba jointly with the Soft Computing and Intelligent Information Systems Research Group of the Uni- versity of Granada in cooperation with the International Society of Applied Intelligence (ISAI). We would like to thank all members of the organization for their unselfish efforts to make the conference a success. We also would like to thank the Uni- versity of Co´rdoba and its Polytechnic School for their support. We would like to thank Springerfor their help in publishing the proceedings.We wouldlike to thank our main sponsors, ISAI, as well as our other sponsors: Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), Association for Computing Machinery (ACM/SIGART), Canadian Artificial Intelligence Association (CA- IAC),EuropeanNeuralNetworkSociety(ENNS),InternationalNeuralNetwork Society (INNS), Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence (JSAI), Taiwanese Association for Artificial Intelligence (TAAI), Taiwanese Association for Con- sumer Electronics (TACE), and Texas State University-San Marcos. We would like to thank the invited speakers for their interesting and infor- mative talks of a world-class standard. We cordially thank all authors for their valuable contributions as well as the other participants in this conference. The conference would not have been possible without their support. Thanks are also due to the many experts who contributed to making the event a success.
