INFORMATION
*****************************************************************************
Over the last four years, the ENNS - European Neural Network Society - 
has held its annual conference ICANN in Helsinki (1991), Brighton (1992),
Amsterdam (1993) and Sorrento (1994). 
This conference has become the foremost meeting for the European neural
network scientific community.

In 1995, ENNS will hold the ICANN meeting in Paris.

The format of this conference will include a scientific conference, an
industrial conference, tutorials, industrial forums and an industrial
exhibition.

Our challenge, in organizing this conference, is to achieve the highest
scientific quality for papers presented at the scientific conference 
(through a strict selection procedure), together with the most convincing 
set of applications presented at the industrial conference (only operational,
top-level applications will be considered). Papers should stress the
rationale of the Neural Network approach and provide a comparison with other
techniques. We thus hope to demonstrate that Neural Networks are indeed a
very deep and exciting field of research, as well as a most efficient,
profitable technique for the industry.

To achieve these goals, we seek contributions from all the scientists, both
from academy and industry, who share our interests and our quality 
requirements.

*****************************************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS
The conference will cover the following domains :

SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE
* theory
* algorithms & architectures
* implementations (hardware & software)
* cognitive sciences & AI
* neurobiology
* applications 
	identification & control
	image processing & vision
	OCR
	speech & signal processing
	prediction
	optimization
	

INDUSTRIAL CONFERENCE
This conference will cover two main categories: on the one hand, 
descriptions of tools and methods and their use in real-life cases and, 
on the other, descriptions of concrete applications in industry and 
the sector of services. 
All fields of application are eligible.
Special sessions will be organized on specific areas of industry such as:
* banking, finance & insurance
* telecommunications
* teledetection
* process engineering, control and monitoring
* oil industry
* power industry
* food processing
* transportation
* robotics
* speech processing
* document processing, OCR, text retrieval & indexing
* VLSI & dedicated hardware
* forecasting & marketing
* technical diagnosis
* non destructive testing
* medicine
* defense

LOCATION
The conference will be held in la Maison de la Chimie, right in the center 
of Paris, near les Invalides. Built in 1707, for Frederic-Maurice de 
la Tour, Comte d'Auvergne, Lieutenant General to King Louis XIV, the Mansion 
has today become a Congress Center equipped with all the modern facilities.
