CFP: 1st European Workshop on Neuromorphic Systems

[Dr L S Smith (Staff)]

EWNS: 1st European Workshop on Neuromorphic Systems

29-31 August 1997, University of Stirling, Stirling, Scotland

First Call for Papers

Organisers: 


Centre for Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience
University of Stirling, Scotland

and 


Department of Electrical Engineering
University of Edinburgh, Scotland

First Call for Papers

Neuromorphic systems are implementations in silicon of sensory and neural
systems whose architecture and design are based on neurobiology. This
growing area proffers exciting possibilities such as sensory systems which
can compete with human senses and pattern recognition systems that can run
in real-time. The area is at the intersection of many disciplines:
neurophysiology, computer science and electrical engineering.

Papers are requested in the following areas:

Design issues in sensorineural neuromorphic systems: 

auditory, visual, olfactory, proprioception, sensorimotor systems.

Designs for silicon implementations of neural systems.

Papers not exceeding 8 A4 pages are requested: these should be sent to
