Stats/ANN Workshop

[Jim Kay]

          STATISTICS  AND NEURAL  NETWORKS


   A research workshop on the above topic will be held in
Edinburgh under the auspices of the International Centre for
Mathematical Sciences.

Invited speakers will include Leo Breiman (Berkeley), Phil Brown
(Liverpool), David Hand (Open University), Trevor Hastie (ATT and
Stanford), Nathan Intrator (Tel Aviv), Michael Jordan (MIT), Jim Kay
(SASS), David Lowe (Aston), David Mackay (Cambridge), Radford Neal
(Toronto) and Brian Ripley (Oxford).

The workshop will take place on April 19-20, 1995, and will be followed by
an Open Meeting on April 21, 1995. The meetings will form part of the
Edinburgh Science Festival.  Although participation in the Workshop will be
predominantly by invitation, there will be a small number of places for
direct applicants, with some priority given to research students who apply
before November 30, 1994.

For details contact either J. W.  Kay (SASS, Macaulay Land Use Research
Institute, Craigiebuckler, Aberdeen, AB9 2QJ; sassk at mluri.sari.ac.uk) or D.
M. Titterington (Department of Statistics, University of Glasgow, Glasgow
G12 8QQ; mike at stats.gla.ac.uk) as soon as possible.

   Applicants are welcome to use the attached electronic form.  However, in
view of the limited numbers at the Workshop and its strategic nature, not
all applicants may be successful in obtaining places. Every effort will be
made to notify applicants of the success, or otherwise, of their
application by mid-December, 1994.
