[Brad Love]

Five prizes of $1000 (USD) each are available to top papers submitted  
to the 2007 Annual Conference of the Cognitive Science Society, which  
will be held in Nashville from August 1st to 4th.  The submission  
deadline is February 1st.  The conference website is http:// 
csep.psyc.memphis.edu/cogsci07/

Four prizes worth $1,000 (USD) each will be awarded for the best  
paper submissions that involve computational cognitive modeling.  The  
four separate prizes will represent the best modeling work in the  
respective areas of: perception/action, language, higher-level  
cognition, and applied cognition.  Any form of computational  
cognitive modeling relevant to cognitive science will be eligible,  
including (but not limited to) connectionism, symbolic, Bayesian,  
dynamic systems, or various hybrids.

Additionally, the Marr Prize, named in honor of the late David Marr,  
will be given to the best student paper at the conference.
