[ACT-R-users] announcement ICCM 2017 in Warwick, UK, July 22-25th

[Marieke van Vugt RUG]

Call for papers MathPsych/ICCM 2017

July 22nd-25th, 2017               
(July 22nd is for Workshops, Tutorials & Opening reception)
University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
 
 <>We would like to invite you to the 15th International Conference on Cognitive Modeling (ICCM): the premier conference for research on computational models and computation-based theories of human cognition.  This year, ICCM has joined forces with the Society for Mathematical Psychology and the European Mathematical Psychology Group 2017 meeting to create a conference in which all sessions are open to all attendees, and cross-talk is highly encouraged.

MathPsych/ICCM 2017 is a forum for presenting and discussing the complete spectrum of cognitive modeling approaches, including connectionism, symbolic modeling, dynamical systems, Bayesian modeling, and cognitive architectures. Research topics can range from low-level perception to high-level reasoning. We also welcome contributions that use computational models to better understand neuroscientific data.

We are pleased to announce three world-class invited speakers: Peter Dayan (University College London), Randy Gallistel (Rutgers University), Joe Houpt (Wright State University, Estes Early Career Award winner).

We will also have four invited symposia:

-       Using Cognitive Models to Inform Neuroimaging Data (And Vice Versa!). Organizer: Jelmer Borst
-       Models of Decision from Experience. Organizer: Ido Erev
-       Bridging Levels of Analysis with Rational Process Models. Organizers: Tom Griffiths and Adam Sanborn
-       Advances in Distributional Models of Language and Meaning. Organizers: John Willits and Melody Dye

 

We have separate submissions for the MathPsych parallel tracks and the ICCM single-track. For MathPsych, submissions are brief abstracts to be considered for both talks and posters. For ICCM submissions are 6-page full papers to be considered for talks, and 2-page poster abstracts. We are working with topiCS to create a special issue based on the best full ICCM papers. Submissions may be made by researchers, faculty, post-docs, graduate students and undergraduate students. Any one person may present only one paper, but may also be a co-author of other papers (this rule applies across the two conferences, i.e., when you are presenting author of a MathPsych paper, you cannot also be a presenting author of an ICCM paper). We also welcome pre-conference workshop/tutorial submissions that are not specific to MathPsych or ICCM. All types of submissions are due on March 15th, 11.59pm CEST.

More information can be found on our website: http://mathpsych.org/conferences/2017/ <http://mathpsych.org/conferences/2017/>
Note that early-bird registration will be £200 (faculty) and £100 (students) and includes lunch. Limited hotel accommodation will be available on-site for a fee of £100/night (including breakfast and dinner). Conference hotel accommodation can only be booked through the conference website during registration. Registration will open on March 1st.

We hope to see you in Warwick!
