FINAL CALL FOR REGISTRATION !!! --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Neural Computation and Psychology Workshop Connectionist Models of Memory and Language University of Edinburgh, Scotland 10th - 13th September 1993 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES ------------------- This workshop is the second in a series, following on from last year's very successful Neurodynamics and Psychology Workshop at the University of Wales, Bangor. This year it is to be hosted by the Connectionism and Cognition Research Group at the University of Edinburgh. The general aim is to bring together researchers from such diverse disciplines as neurobiology, psychology, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, applied mathematics and computer science to discuss their work on the connectionist modelling of memory and language. There are special sessions on memory and models of reading. The workshop has an invited list of speakers and a limited number of participants to allow single-track papers and ease of discussion. It will run from the evening of Friday 10th through to lunch time on Monday 13th. THE PROGRAMME INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING TALKS: ------------------------------------------- LANGUAGE PROCESSES: James L. McClelland (CMU) "Learning quasi-regular mappings in tense marking and reading: How many mechanisms are necessary?" Bob Kentridge (Durham) "Cortical Neural Computation, Language and Cognition." Bob Damper (Southampton) "Rules versus Connectionism in Pronouncing Text" John Bullinaria (Edinburgh) "Neural Network Models of Reading Without Wickelfeatures" Trevor A. Harley (Warwick) "Lexical access in speech production: Data and models" MEMORY: Noel Sharkey (Exeter) "A generalization of interference and trade-off in connectionist models of recognition memory" Gordon Brown and Charles Hulme (Bangor, York) "Mathematical and Connectionist Models of Memory" George Dunbar (Warwick) "A connectionist model of lexical combination" Dimitris Bairaktaris (Edinburgh) "Dynamic Binding in STM Using Temporal Synchrony" Jacob Murre (APU, Cambridge) "Forgetting and connectionism" POSTER SESSION -------------- So that other participants have a chance of presenting their work on connectionist models of memory and language we are including refereed poster sessions. It is still possible to submit a poster, but please send submissions ASAP. REGISTRATION, FOOD AND ACCOMMODATION ------------------------------------ The workshop will be held in Pollock Halls, an attractive student residence close to the centre of Edinburgh with views of Arthur's Seat and ample parking. The conference registration fee (which includes morning and afternoon teas and coffees, the three lunches, a reception and meal on the Friday evening and dinner on Saturday) is 80 pounds (or 65 pounds for full time students). A special Conference Dinner will be arranged for the Sunday evening costing 15 pounds. Bed and breakfast accommodation on site is 70 pounds (total for the three nights).
