revered researchers, four workshops to
stimulate discussions between participants on active and emerging topics, and
ten competitions offering distinctive
topics in each track to cater to every
participant's needs within the field of
computational intelligence. In particular,
human vs. computer Go demonstration
games were held during the IEEE
WCCI 2016. Applied with deep learning technologies, a few top computer
Go programs including Zen (Japan),
DarkForest (Facebook/USA), and CGI
(Taiwan), were invited to compete with
world-class professional Go players in
the games, including Chun-Hsun Chou
(9P/Taiwan), Ping-Chiang Chou (6P/
Taiwan), and Yi-Min Hsieh (6P/Japan),
as well as three amateur Go players
(Shang-Rong Tsai, Shi-Jim Yen, and
Seng-Su Chang).
Apart from the technical program,
the congress also advocated socializing
by supplementing a variety of events as
part of the social program, providing
attendees with opportunities to connect with other great minds with common interests. Highlights include the
Welcome Reception on 24th July
which provided delectable food
together with an enticing aboriginal
performance, enabling attendees to soak
in the rich cultural heritage which
Canada provides. Two other receptions
were also organized (i.e., Student Activities and Young Professionals Reception
as well as Women in Computational
