ACNN'98 is the annual national meeting of the Australian neural network community. It is a multi-disciplinary meeting and seeks contributions from Neuroscientists, Engineers, Computer Scientists, Mathematicians, Physicists and Psychologists. ACNN'98 will feature a number of invited speakers. The program will include lecture presentations, (including special sessions), and poster sessions. Extended abstracts will be distributed to attendees with proceedings being distributed to attendees shortly after the conference. Pre-Conference Workshops and Tutorials -------------------------------------- Proposals for Pre-Conference Workshops and Tutorials are invited. These are to be held on Tuesday 10th February 1998 at the same venue as the conference. People wishing to organise such workshops or tutorials are invited to submit a precis by Monday 6th October 1997. Special Sessions ---------------- It is envisaged that the conference will include special sessions on topics such as: Rule Extraction & Connectionist Knowledge Representation Modelling Higher Cognitive Processes Computational Learning Theory Submissions ----------- Papers should be submitted to the ACNN'98 Secretariat as close as possible to final form and must not exceed 5 single pages (2 column format, 10pt or more). Details, a LaTeX style file and a LaTeX template file are available via the WWW page: http://www.elec.uq.edu.au/acnn98/ Electronic submissions in PostScript or Microsoft Word format will be welcomed. ACNN'98 will include a special poster session devoted to recent work and work-in-progress. Abstracts are solicited for this session (1 page limit) and may be submitted up to 10 days before the commencement of the conference. They will not be refereed or included in the proceedings, but will be distributed to attendees upon arrival. Students are especially encouraged to participate in this session. Submission Categories --------------------- Applications: Examples Include: Signal processing and analysis; Pattern recognition; Speech, Machine vision; Motor control; Robotics; Forecasting; Medical Architectures and Learning Algorithms: New architectures and learning algorithms; Hierarchy; Modularity; Learning pattern sequences; Information integration; Evolutionary computation; Machine learning Cognitive Science: Models of perception and pattern recognition; Memory; Concept formation; Problem solving and reasoning; Language acquisition and production Neuroscience: Vision, Audition, Motor Somatosensory and Autonomic functions; Synaptic function; Cellular information processing Theory: Learning; Generalisation; Complexity; Stability; Dynamics Implementation: Hardware implementations of neural nets; Analog and digital VLSI implementation; Optical implementation Important Dates --------------- Paper Submissions Due Mon 17th Nov 97 Workshop & Tutorial Proposals Mon 6th Oct 97 Notification of Acceptance Fri 19th Dec 97 Work In Progress Abstracts Due Mon 2nd Feb 98 Registration Fees ----------------- Students Regular After 1st Jan 98 ACNN'98 A$100 A$300 A$400 Organising Committee: --------------------- Tom Downs UQ (Chair) Janet Wiles UQ Joachim Diederich QUT P Suganthan UQ Marcus Gallagher UQ Marcus Frean UQ Robert Andrews QUT Contact Information: -------------------- ACNN'98 Secretariat Dept of Electrical & Computer Engineering University of Queensland QLD. 4072.
