Brief Bio
Piotr S. Szczepaniak received the MSc degree in automatic control from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Lodz University of Technology, Poland, in 1977, and the PhD in automatic control and DSc in computer science both from the Technical University of Dresden, Germany, in 1982, and 1990, respectively. In 2005, he obtained the full professor title from the President of Poland. In the years 1996-2003 he was and since 2012 he is Head of the Institute of Information Technology of the Lodz University of Technology. Between 2005 and 2008 he was Dean of the Faculty of Technical Physics, Information Technology and Applied Mathematics. Since 2008 till 2012, he has been the Vice-rector for University Development and Business Affairs and since 2012 is a Vice-rector for University Development. In the years 1999-2008, he was a member of Systems Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences. He is the organizer and he was the first President of the ICT Cluster of Central Poland. He is a member of the Polish Cybernetic Society, Polish Neural Networks Society, IEEE Signal Processing Society and the Senior Member of the IEEE Computer Society. His research experience covers optimal control theory, sensitivity analysis, and approximation of dynamic time-delay systems. At present, he is working in the field of computational intelligence and its applications to image analysis, pattern recognition, knowledge extraction and development of medical systems. His publishing activity is evidenced by over 160 individual or collective journal papers and conference contributions, as well as by the edition of books published by Springer-Verlag.

SCOPE
The Outlier Detection for Biomedical Applications - Special Session at BIOSTEC, the 11th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies is dedicated to broadly understood issues of outlier detection in large data sets, including big data. Detection of outliers is the basis for decision-making processes, classification, grouping and methods of intelligence. The problem of anomaly detection encompasses a wide spectrum of applied methods. ODEBIO session is therefore an opportunity to identify new research directions and presentation of original research results. It is also an opportunity for exchanging and diffusing innovative and practical experience in this field.
The scope of ODEBIO 2018 includes, but is not limited to the following issues:
• Probabilistic and statistical models for outlier detection
• Grade correspondence analysis for outlier detection
• Outlier detection based on distance, density, depth, deviation etc.
• Evolutionary algorithms for outlier detection
• Outlier detection in categorical, text, mixed attribute data, stream data, image and image sequences
• Outlier analysis in graphs, networks
• Outlier detection in big data
• Application of outlier analysis in biomedicine and healthcare
