CALL FOR PAPERS
****************************************************************
International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN 2003)
Portland, Oregon, July 20-24, 2003
http://www.ijcnn.net
DEADLINE: January 29, 2003
****************************************************************
Co-sponsored by the
International Neural Network Society (INNS)
And the
IEEE Neural Networks Society.
Paper submission deadline is January 29, 2003. Selected papers will be
published in a special issue of the journal Neural Networks, in addition to
publication of all papers in the conference proceedings.
The International Joint Conference on Neural Networks provides an
overview of state of the art research in Neural Networks, covering a
wide range of topics (see topic list below).
The IJCNN meeting is organized annually by the International Neural
Network Society (INNS) and the IEEE Neural Networks Society.
Conference attendees who are INNS or IEEE Neural Networks Society
members, or who join one of these societies now will receive a reduced IJCNN
conference registration fee, and those who are INNS members will receive
the IJCNN special issue for free as part of their annual membership
subscription to Neural Networks.
