  1. The Genesis of the IEEE CIS: Examining the Fossil Record (1987-1992) Robert J. Marks II

  2. June 21-24, 1987: First IEEE ICNN, San Diego • Founders • Robert Hecht-Nielsen • Bart Kosko • San Diego Section of the IEEE • What happened? • Founding of the IEEE Neural Networks Committee • Founding of INNS

  3. June 21-24, 1987: First IEEE ICNN, San Diego • First IEEE Neural Network Committee Chair: Troy Nagle

  4. July 24-27, 1988, Second ICNN, San Diego. • Troy Nagle, IEEE Neural Networks Committee Chair, appointed a committee to found the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks. Robert Marks is Committee Chair. • Troy Nagle then resigns. Robert Marks, as the Committee Secretary, becomes the Chair.

  5. 1989 Bullets • The NNC and the INNS agreement for combining the ICNN and INNS Annual Meeting into the IJCNN. • The IEEE Publications Committee approves the NNC proposal for the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks. • IJCNN, Washington DC. • The IEEE Technical Activities Board (TAB) approves formation of the IEEE Neural Networks Council.

  6. 1990 • The NNC Fellows Committee is appointed. Ed Posner (Cal Tech) is the first Chair. • The NNC Standards Committee is appointed. Evangelia Micheli Tzanakou (Rutgers) is the first Chair. • NNC Pioneer Award and TNN Best Paper Award approved. Brad Dickinson (Princeton) is the first NNC Awards Committee

  7. 1990 • Election of the first officers of the Neural Networks Council • R. J. Marks II, President • Russ Eberhart, VP • Evangelia Tzanakou, Secretary • P.K. Simpson, Treasurer

  8. 1990 • March: First issue of The IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks. Herb Rauch at Lockheed is the first Editor-in-Chief. Thirty five full papers were submitted for the first issue. Ten were published.

  9. 1991 • Michael W. Roth (Johns Hopkins) becomes the second Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE TNN

  10. 1991 The Hype Continues

  11. 1991 • Announcement of first IEEE book sponsored by the NNC: Neural Networks : Theoretical Foundations and Analysis, by Clifford Lau (ONR) • Discussion of the first WCCI - working title was World Congress on Intelligent Systems (WCIS)

  12. 1991 Fuzzy Thoughts! Budget presented for first Fuzz-IEEE by James C. Bezdek (U. West Florida), Chair Committee proposed to form IEEE TFS. James C. Bezdek (U. West Florida), Chair

  13. From whence...Computational Intelligence?? First proposed in an email by James C. Bezdek (U. West Florida).

  14. 1992 Elections • R. Eberhart, (Johns Hopkins), President • P.K. Simpson (ORINCON), Vice President • Roy Nutter (West Virginia University), Treasurer • Toshio Fukuda (Nagoya University), Treasurer

  15. 1992 • First IEEE TNN Best Paper Award announced: K.S. Narenda and K. Parthasarathy, ``Identification and Control of Dynamical Systems Using Neural Networks.'' • First NNC Neural Network Pioneer Awards announced. Recipients are Stephen Grossberg, Teuvo Kohonen and Bernard Widrow.

  16. 1992 • Robert J. Marks II becomes the third Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Neural Networks Council.

  17. 1992 • First steps in forming the IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation were tasked to Patrick K. Simpson. David Fogel

  18. 1992 • 1992: Six video tutorials on Fuzzy Logic (Mohamed A. El-Sharkawi, Video Tutorials Chair) becomes the best selling video course in the history of the IEEE Educational Activities Board.

  19. 1992 Milestone • 1992: The first Fuzz-IEEE, Chaired by Jim Bezdek, was the very first IEEE Conference to have its Proceeding distributed on CD-ROM (Project Chair: Russ Eberhart).

  20. Much more evolution occurred since 1987-92... to IEEE CIS... FINIS
