About MIR Labs Doctoral Symposium 2021
Machine Intelligence Research Labs (MIR Labs) provides an international forum to share the latest research results, ideas and experiences in intelligent systems design and applications; soft computing; information assurance and security; nature-inspired computing, pattern recognition; and information and communication technologies by bringing together the leading communities in this research space.

MIR Labs doctoral symposium is built on a solid history, through ISDA to WICT, connecting young researchers with highly experienced peers to forge connections, which can last for many years. The main goal of this doctoral symposium is to provide a supportive environment in which PhD students at different stages in their research will present and discuss their problem statement, objectives, methods, and results to a diverse audience of leading experts in the field. They gain insightful feedback and discussion points around their research and the invaluable experience of presenting new findings to an international audience. The forum seeks to offer students helpful guidance on various aspects of their study from established researchers and other PhD students working in research areas related to their field. Additionally, the international forum aims to enable PhD students to interact with other participants to stimulate an exchange of ideas, suggestions and experiences.

The symposium welcomes submissions by PhD students with a two-page abstract and another page for references, which should use the below format to describe the fundamental motivation of their research, the significant contribution (either actual or expected, depending on the research stage), discuss their methodology and present the current status of the study. Accepted submissions will lead to a presentation during the doctoral symposium. They may additionally provide an opportunity to present a poster at the leading conference, offering a vast audience for their research.

Students at any stage of their PhD are welcome to submit. Reviews, feedback, and expectations will be adapted appropriately to the relative phase of each submission.

Mentoring Program
The Doctoral Symposium will also employ a mentoring program, in which every author of an accepted paper will be paired with an experienced mentor from the community. Mentors will help introduce the student to the community, offer extended discussion of their research objectives and career opportunities, and will host their students throughout the event to help gain the best experience from an international conference.

Topics (not limited to)
Intelligent Systems and Applications
Hybrid Intelligent Systems
Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition
Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing
Innovations in Bio-Inspired Computing and Applications
Information and Assurance Security
Innovations in Information and Communication Technologies
