<p>The journal <i>Frontiers in Psychology</i> (section <i>Cognitive
Science</i>) is organizing a special issue ("Research Topic")
on Contemporary Neural Network Modeling in Cognitive Science,
edited by Stefan Frank, Dan Mirman, and James McClelland. This
Research Topic aims to further the continued application of
neural network models to address topics in cognitive science and
cognitive neuroscience. It will highlight how the latest
developments in neural network models can be applied to
understanding cognitive and neural processes, and it aims to
stimulate further cognitive computational research using the
tools, methods, and insights from contemporary neural network
research in machine learning and artificial intelligence, while
also providing a forum for the presentation of more traditional
modeling efforts of high quality. <br>
<br>
Submissions that report new advances in neural network
architectures or methods, apply neural networks to more
life-like cognitive tasks and larger-scale data sets, or bridge
across different levels of analysis, will be particularly
encouraged. Most papers will present research using neural
networks to simulate cognitive processes such as perception,
memory, and language; and to account for behavioral and/or
neuroimaging data. Methods, Protocols, and Technology Reports
that describe how to implement neural networks will also be
welcome. <br>
<br>
The deadline for abstract submission is December 1st 2016.
Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit a full
paper by June 1st 2017. For more information and abstract
submission instructions, please visit <br>
