Updated schedule for fall Rutgers Neural Network colloquium series

[Lorien Y. Pratt]

                                Fall, 1988 
                      Neural Networks Colloquium Series
				at Rutgers

The field of Neural networks (Connectionism, Parallel Distributed
Processing) has enjoyed a resurgence in recent years, and has important
implications for computer scientists interested in artificial
intelligence, parallel processing, and other areas.  This fall, the
Rutgers Department of Computer Science is hosting several researchers
in the field of neural networks to talk about their work.

Talks are open to the public, and will be held on Fridays at 11:10 in
the 7th floor lounge of Hill Center on the Busch campus of Rutgers
University.  Refreshments will be served beforehand and we hope most
speakers to be available for informal discussion over lunch
afterwards.

Our tentative schedule follows.  The schedule will no doubt change
throughout the semester; the latest version can always be found in
paul.rutgers.edu:/grad/u4/pratt/Colloquia/schedule or
aramis.rutgers.edu:/aramis/u1/pratt/Colloquia/schedule.  In addition,
abstracts for each talk will be posted locally.
