systems, and the introduction of
the adversarial machine-learning
fra mework. T wo webina rs, one
focusing on resilient interconnected micro energy grids and the other
on cyber-physical cloud systems,
were also presented. In addition, a
workshop on brain-machine interface (BMI) systems was organized,
and its theme was "The Human-inthe-Loop: BMI, Haptics, Big Data,
and Shared Control." The workshop
featured two lectures and three
pa nel d i scu s sion s. José del R .
M i l lá n of Ecole Poly t ech n ique
Fédérale de Lausanne spoke about
the importance of incor porating
perceptual feedback in designing a
control strategy for motor neuroprosthetics, and Jack Gallant discussed how to apply a Bayesian
framework to decode brain activity,
such that subjective mental states
c a n be ef fec tively inferred. The
pa nel d i s c u s s ion s fo c u s e d on
impor ta nt topics in BMI, which
included how to transfer research
results into real-world applications,
how to develop robust and highper for ma nce BMI systems, a nd
how to foster collaboration among
BMI researchers.
T he m a i n SMC S c om m it t e e
meetings (which included meetings
of the technical committee chairs,
the publications committee, and
associate editors) were held during
the conference. In addition, a preconference Boa rd of Gover nors
meeting wa s conducted for the
first time through voice-over Internet protocol. Lunch events were
also organized for the technical
committee chairs, Chapter chairs,
associate editors, a nd the main
SMCS committees.
Social Events
The welcome reception was held at
the City Top Restaurant on the evening of 9 October. The restaurant
commands a superb view of the
CityU campus, and the event served
as a great prelude to the conference. The attendees enjoyed a wide
selection of Chinese and Western

attendees engaged in discussion at a poster session.
