 9th NEURAL COMPUTATION AND PSYCHOLOGY WORKSHOP (NCPW 9)
                     Modelling Language, Cognition and Action

                       Plymouth (UK),  8-10 September 2004

The 9th Neural Computation and Psychology Workshop (NCPW9) will be held in Plymouth (England), September 8-10, 2004. Each year this lively forum brings together researchers from diverse disciplines such as psychology, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science, robotics, neuroscience, and philosophy. The special theme of this year's workshop is "Neural Network Modelling of Language, Cognition and Action". 

PAPER SUBMISSIONS are INVITED in this and others areas covering the wider subject of neural modelling of cognitive and psychological processes. 

Papers will be considered for oral and poster presentations. After the conference, participants will be invited to submit a paper for the post-conference proceedings. This Workshop has always been characterized by the presentation of high quality papers, its limited size and the fact that it takes place in an informal setting. These features are explicitly designed to encourage interaction among the participants.
