Invitation to submit to JCIS 2003 special session on recurrent neural nets

[Simon Levy]

Dear Connectionists,

I am soliciting submissions for a special session of the next Joint 
Conference on Information Sciences (http://www.ee.duke.edu/jcis/).  The 
conference will be held Sep 26-30 2003 at the   Embassy Suites Hotel and 
Conference Center in Cary, North Carolina, and the session will take 
place one morning or afternoon during those four days.  The topic of the 
session will be "New Frontiers for Recurrent Neural Networks", with the 
goal of sharing news on current work (including work in progress) with 
other connectionists, in a friendly atmosphere.  Last year's special 
session included presentations on using recurrent networks for modeling 
lexical development, goal management, short-term memory, and emergent 
rule-like behavior.  Papers presented at the session (four pages in 
length) will be published in the JCIS 2003 Conference Proceedings.  

All submission and questions should be directed to me (levys at wlu.edu). 
 The camera-ready deadline is June 16.  Thank you for your attention, 
and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Simon
