SS4 | Times series analysis in geosciences Motivation and objectives for the session. Times series are ubiquitous in geosciences. Time series analysis is amply used in hydrology, climatology, geology, environmental geosciences, geophysics, etc. The main objective of this session is the presentation of methodologies and cases studies dealing with the analysis of times series analysis in geosciences. New theoretical developments, new algorithms implementing known methodologies, new strategies for dealing with classical problems or classical methodologies dealing with new problems as well as case studies are appropriate for this special session.

SS7 | Computational Intelligence methods for Time Series
Within the field of science and engineering, it is very common to have data arranged in the form of time series data which must be subsequently analyzed, modeled and classified with the eventual goal of predicting future values. The literature shows that all these tasks related to time series can be undertaken using computational intelligence methods. In fact, new and further computational intelligence approaches, their efficiency and their comparison to statistical methods and other fact-checked computational intelligence methods, is a significant topic in academic and professional projects and works. Therefore, this special session aims at showing to our research community high quality and state of the art computational intelligence (and statistical) related works, applied to time series data and their tasks: analysis, forecasting, classification, and clustering. Furthermore, the experts can, from the starting point that the works shown provide, discuss different solutions and research issues for these topics. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques applied to

SS11 | Spatio-temporal brain dynamics in attention tasks This session is devoted to presenting the latest research on analysis time series techniques and forecasting for spatio-temporal dynamics of oscillations of neural brain activity, measured by multi-electrode and functional magnetic resonance imaging recordings. We look for approaches dealing with non-stationarities in EEG signals through time and/or space domains, as well as facilitating their use in human-computer interaction. The scope includes a wide variety of applications of dynamic neuroimaging of brain function, among others, the following: The use of signal processing tools such as time-domain analysis, power spectral estimation, and wavelet transform in tasks involving electroencephalography (EEG) signals with a large number of channels, encouraging efficient channel selection metrics to measure the spatial relevance from one application to another. Extraction of informative features, aiming to take into account the relationships among EEG sensor/source signals in the form of brain connectivity as an efficient tool in neuroscience tasks. Development of strategic approaches to deal with the high variations of performance across and even within subjects, which may contribute to improving the reliability of human-computer interaction technology. Research contributions should be related but are not limited to one or more of the following topics:
