		      Ph.D. in NEURAL COMPUTING
		      -------------------------

A 3-year Ph.D. programme in NEURAL COMPUTING is offered to applicants
with a First degree in Mathematics, Computing, Physics or Engineering
(others will also be considered). The first year consists of courses
given under the M.Sc. in Information Processing and Neural Networks
(see attached notice). Second and third year research will be
supervised in one of the various programmes in the development and
application of temporal, non-linear and stochastic features of neurons
in visual, auditory and speech processing. There is also work in
higher level category and concept formation and episodic memory
storage. Analysis and simulation are used, both on PC's SUNs and main
frame machines, and there is a programme on the development and use of
adaptive hardware chips in VLSI for pattern and speed processing.

This work is part of the activities of the Centre for Neural Networks
in the School of Physical Sciences and Engineering, which has 47
researchers in Neural Networks. It is one of the main centres of the
subject in the U.K.
