 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.
