nesliwa%nasamail@AMES.ARPA (NANCY E. SLIWA) (12/30/87)
Thanks to all of you who responded to my request for names of researchers doing connectionist research in the robotics domain. As I have had several requests for copies of that list, I am posting it here. A few disclaimers: I merely took the names sent to me, weeded out the duplicates, and put them in alphabetical order. Formats and cases are dissimilar for several entries. There is no guarantee that all the people listed are working in the robotics domain; in fact, I doubt that is the case. I put *** by the names that were repeatedly suggested to me, about 10 from the list of ~75. I have also had several requests about the ACC session on robotic applications of connectionist systems. I will post that in a subsequent message.
