    AAAI Fall Symposium - Compositional Connectionism in
                      Cognitive Science
         October 22-24, 2004 Washington, D.C. U.S.A.

Invited Speakers:

Jeff Elman, University of California at San Diego
Mark Steedman, University of Edinburgh


Preliminary expressions of interest in this symposium
suggest that it will be a very interesting gathering, with
speakers from a wide range of disciplines, institutions, and
countries.  We believe this symposium will achieve its aim
of exposing connectionist researchers to the broadest
possible range of conceptions of composition (including
those conceptions that pose the greatest challenge for
connectionism) while simultaneously alerting other AI and
cognitive science researchers to the range of possibilities
for connectionist implementation of composition.

The symposium will be limited to 40-60 participants.  Those
interested in attending should submit a paper or, if not
intending to speak, submit a brief position paper or
research abstract by May 3, 2004.  The symposium is intended
for active participants, however there may be a limited
number of places for interested individuals.  These will be
available on a first-come, first-served basis after the
opening of general registration in July 2004.
