This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on
Engineering Applications of Neural Networks EANN 2017 held in Athens Greece in August 2017.
The 40 revised full papers and 5 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and
selected from 83 submissions. The papers cover the topics of deep learning convolutional
neural networks image processing pattern recognition recommendation systems machine
learning and applications of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) applications in engineering 5G
telecommunication networks and audio signal processing. The volume also includes papers
presented at the 6th Mining Humanistic Data Workshop (MHDW 2017) and the 2nd Workshop on
5G-Putting Intelligence to the Network Edge (5G-PINE).
