(Enhancement of EEG-Based Diagnosis of Neurological and Psychiatric 
            Disorders Using Artificial Neural Networks)
=========================================================================

announces its WWW home page:

ANNDEE is a concerted action sponsored by the European Commission and 
the Austrian Federal Ministry of Science, Research, and the Arts. It is 
devoted to coordinating research at several European centers aimed at 
processing EEG data using neural networks, in order to enhance diagnosis 
based on EEG. Among the application areas focused upon within ANNDEE are:

	- detection and classification of psychoses
	  (e.g. schizophrenia)

	- detection and classification of degenerative diseases
	  (e.g. Parkinson's)

        - automatic sleep staging and detection of sleep disorders
	  (e.g. apneua, arousals)

        - spike detection in epilepsy

        - classification of single-trial, event-related EEG
	  (e.g. for aiding handicapped)

The home page at the above URL does not only give information about the
ANNDEE project but is aimed at growing into a comprehensive server for
anyone interested in this topic. Currently it includes

	- a list of partners and associated sites
	- a list of other sites on the Web
	- a search form for bibliographical references
	- links to publicly available EEG data
	- a list of important events


=========================I M P O R T A N T !==============================

Currently, some of the pages are still rather short.
In order to make these services as complete as possible, we urge everyone
working on EEG data processing with neural networks, to send us their

	- address (incl. URL, if applicable)
	- description of their work
	- references
	- links to available data

(this is not restricted to European sites!!)

Send email to: anndee-admin at ai.univie.ac.at

Questions concerning the scientific part of the project should be
directed to:   georg at ai.univie.ac.at (Georg Dorffner)

First Announcement: Public ANNDEE Meeting

The ANNDEE project announces its first public workshop


	=======================================
	  Neural Network-Based EEG Analysis
	=======================================

                  June 29-30, 1995
                   Graz, Austria

This workshop comprises lectures by ANNDEE participants as
well as invited speakers, such as J. Kangas (Finland). It also
includes tutorials on LVQ and SOM (self-organizing feature maps).
