5th Neural Computation and Psychology Workshop
Connectionist Models in Cognitive Neuroscience
University of Birmingham, England
Tuesday 8th September - Thursday 10th September 1998
This workshop is the fifth in a series, following on from the first
at the University of Wales, Bangor (with theme "Neurodynamics and
Psychology"), the second at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland
("Memory and Language"), the third at the University of Stirling,
Scotland ("Perception") and the forth at the University College,
London ("Connectionist Representations"). The general aim is to bring
together researchers from such diverse disciplines as artificial
intelligence,
applied mathematics, cognitive science, computer science, neurobiology,
philosophy and psychology to discuss their work on the connectionist
modelling of psychology.
This year's workshop is to be hosted by the University of Birmingham.
As in previous years there will be a theme to the workshop.
The theme is to be:
Connectionist Models in Cognitive Neuroscience.
This covers many important issues ranging from modelling physiological
structure to cognitive function and its disorders (in neuropsychological
and psychiatric cases).
As in previous years we aim to keep the workshop fairly small, informal
and single track. As always, participants bringing expertise from
outside the UK are particularly welcome.
A one page abstract should be sent to
Professor Glyn W. Humphreys

Deadline for abstracts:
