Connectionists: Marking the 35th Anniversary of AI and Math -- an AMS special session Jan. 8, 2025 at the JMM in Seattle

[Diochnos, Dimitrios]

Come and join us at the 2025 (JMM) Joint Mathematics Meetings in Seattle. Our session will meet on the opening day of the JMM, which includes the AMS, MAA and a dozen other math meetings and big lectures (Jan 8-11, 2025). It will keep you very busy! A wealth of information can be found on the links from the home page for this meeting:

                              35th Anniversary of AI and Math
                       Wednesday, January 8, 2025: 8:30 AM - 17:00 PM
                                    AMS Special Session

Celebrating the founding in 1990 of the biennial Int'l Symposium on AI and Math (ISAIM), selected past speakers, chairs, and colleagues will present recent research, with a particular emphasis on the foundations of AI and mathematical methods. Participants from a variety of disciplines will provide a unique forum for scientific exchange to foster new areas of applied mathematics and strengthen the scientific underpinnings of AI.

We look forward to this event as a reunion of the many friends who have participated in ISAIM over these 3 and a half decades. Simply register for the JMM at the link above – Registration and hotel reservations are open.

The organizers: 

    Prof. Martin Charles Golumbic, Prof. Frederick Hoffman, Dr. Maria Provost
