	  Call for Papers for the Technical session on 
		Neural and Cognitive Modeling

First Indian International Conference on Artificial Intelligence
		Hyderabad, INDIA 
		December 18-20, 2003

------------------------------------------------------------------
About the Session 

This session focuses on issues in computational / theoretical neuroscience
and cognitive modeling. The ideas presented could be proposals of
conceptual framework or concrete models of brain function and dysfunction. 
Models could be pitched at the level of sub-neuronal, neuronal,
population, or at the brain systems level. The processes could be related
to language, speech, planning, decision making, reasoning, learning,
memory, cognition, emotion, attention, awareness, vision, auditory, other
sensory and motor domains, pattern and object recognition,
neuromodulation, etc. The data for constraining models could originate
from various experimental methods such as EEG, ERP, PET, fMRI, MEG,
Electrophysiology, Psychophysics, Behavioral, Ethological, Developmental
and Clinical studies. The modeling methods may be mathematical,
statistical, neural networks, symbolic artificial intelligence and
computer simulations. The above description is indicative of potential
topics but not restrictive. For any clarifications, please contact the
Session Chair.
