CALL FOR PAPERS
===================
THE CONFERENCE:
===============
Theories, implementations, and applications of Artificial Neural Networks
are progressing at a growing speed both in Europe and elsewhere.
The first commercial hardware for neural circuits and systems are emerging.
This conference will be a major international contact forum for experts
from academia and industry worldwide. Around 1000 participants are expected.
ACTIVITIES:
===========
- Tutorials
- Invited talks
- Oral and poster sessions
- Prototype demonstrations
- Video presentations
- Industrial exhibition
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete papers of at most 6 pages are invited for oral or poster
presentation in one of the sessions given below:
1. Mathematical theories of networks and dynamical systems
2. Neural network architectures and algorithms
(including organizations and comparative studies)
3. Artificial associative memories
4. Pattern recognition and signal processing (especially vision and speech)
5. Self-organization and vector quantization
6. Robotics and control
7. "Neural" knowledge data bases and non-rule-based decision making
8. Software development
(design tools, parallel algorithms, and software packages)
9. Hardware implementations (coprocessors, VLSI, optical, and molecular)
10. Commercial and industrial applications
11. Biological and physiological connection
(synaptic and cell functions, sensory and motor functions, and memory)
12. Neural models for cognitive science and high-level brain functions
13. Physics connection (thermodynamical models, spin glasses, and chaos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deadline for submitting manuscripts is January 15, 1991. The Conference Proceedings will be published as a book by Elsevier Science Publishers B.V.
