nips recurrent nets workshop

[Hava Siegelmann]

  Announcing:  The NIPS Workshop on Recurrent Neural Networks
  ===========================================================

Unlike feedforward-acyclic networks, recurrent nets contain feedback
loops, and thus give rise to dynamical systems. Theoretically,
recurrent networks are very strong computationally.  However, their
dynamics introduces difficulties for learning and convergence.

This 2-day workshop will feature formal sessions, discussions,
and a panel discussion aimed at understanding the dynamics,
theoretical capabilities, and practical applicability of recurrent
network. The panel will focus on future directions of recurrent
networks research.

The schedule is almost finalized. If you feel you have what to 
contribute to the workshop by talking / discussing / asking / or suggesting...
- please feel free to contact me.
I will wait a few days for responses before announcing the final program.
