include cognitive science in the main stream. The conference topics
include but are not limited to:

- NEURAL NETWORK MODELS
  Learning algorithms
  Neural network architectures
  Neurodynamics & spiking neuron
  Statistical neural network models

- COGNITIVE SCIENCE

<PAPER SUBMISSION>

 Papers should be submitted by 15 May 2000 and registered on the
conference web page. They will be reviewed by senior researchers in
the field and the authors will be informed about the decision of the
review process by 15 July 2000. The accepted papers must be submitted
in a camera-ready format by 15 Aug 2000. All accepted papers will be
presented at the conference either in an oral or in a poster session
and included in the conference proceedings. At least one author for
each accepted paper should make advance registration.

The conference proceedings will be published as a hardcopy and a
CD-ROM. To facilitate a fast review process and publication of the
proceedings, electronic submission of compressed PostScript or PDF
files is required. If absolutely unavoidable, send four copies of the
paper by mail to the Conference Secretariat. The paper must be written
in English. The paper should not exceed six pages when printed on a

single-spaced two-column single-page format, in Times or similar font
of 10 points. Centered at the top of the first page should be the
complete title, author(s), mailing and e-mailing addresses, followed
by an abstract and the text. Detail paper format may be found at
http://braintech.kaist.ac.kr/ICONIP2000/authors.html.
