A fundamental stimulus to Hybrid Intelligent Systems (HIS) investigations is the awareness in the academic communities about the necessity of the combined approaches to solving the remaining challenging problems in artificial/computational intelligence. Hybrid Intelligent Systems are recently getting popular due to their capabilities in handling several real-world complexities involving imprecision, uncertainty, and vagueness. HIS'21 built on the success of the previous HIS conferences. HIS'21 is the 21st International conference that brings together researchers, developers, practitioners, and users of soft computing, computational intelligence, agents, logic programming, and several other intelligent computing techniques. It aims to increase the awareness of the research community about the broad spectrum of hybrid approaches. It brings together worldwide AI researchers to present their cutting-edge results, discuss the current trends in HIS research, and develop a collective vision of future opportunities. Thereby helping the researchers and practitioners establish international collaborative opportunities, and as a result, advancing the state-of-the-art of the field.<br><br>**Topics (not limited to)**<br>---------------------------<br><br>Interactions between neural networks and fuzzy inference systems.<br>Artificial neural network optimization using global optimization techniques.<br>Fuzzy clustering algorithms and optimization techniques.<br>Fuzzy inference system optimization using global optimization algorithms.<br>Hybrid computing using neural networks - fuzzy systems - evolutionary algorithms.<br>Hybrid optimization techniques (evolutionary algorithms, simulated annealing, tabu search, GRASP etc.).<br>Hybrid of soft computing and statistical learning techniques.<br>Models using inductive logic programming, logic synthesis, grammatical inference, case-based reasoning etc.<br>Autonomic computing.<br>Hybridizatiion with novel computing paradigms: Qantum computing, DNA computing, membrane computing etc.<br>Hybrid Intelligent Systems: Applications<br><br>**Submission Guidelines**<br>-------------------------<br><br>Submission of paper should be made through the submission page from the conference web page. <br>Please refer to the conference website for guidelines to prepare your manuscript.<br><br>Paper format templates:<br><a href="https://www.springer.com/de/authors-editors/book-authors-editors/manuscript-preparation/5636#c3324" target="_blank">https://www.springer.com/de/authors-editors/book-authors-editors/manuscript-preparation/5636#c3324</a><br><br>HIS’21 Submission Link:<br><a href="https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=his20210" target="_blank">https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=his20210</a><br><br>**Plenary Talks**<br>----------------------------------------<br>You are welcome to attend 8 Keynote Talks offered by world-renowned professors and industry leaders.
