The purpose of the International Conference on Bio-inspired Systems and Signal Processing is to bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners from multiple areas of expertise working at the intersection of engineering, mathematics, statistics, computer science, data science, biology, physics, and medicine, interested in developing, applying, and testing algorithmic tools, models, and techniques to solve challenging problems in biology, medicine, cognitive science, sport science etc.  Contemporary research in such areas is based on biological measurements based on a variety of signal types such as arising from bio-mechanical, thermal, electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic processes, and those arising from other biological sources of information. Since analysing and using different types of data often requires cross-disciplinary expertise, skills, and collaborative efforts, this conference was created with the aim to be a high-quality forum to celebrate and disseminate such research efforts, and encourage interdisciplinary interactions and collaboration.
