The theme of the conference, Neural Information Processing, is broad
enough to
promote wide interactions among researchers in many academic
disciplines. The
conference will consist of 3 and a half day oral and poster
presentation, and a half-day
tour. Six leading scientists in this field was invited to give keynote
lectures at the
conference. They are: S. Amari (RIKEN, Japan), W. J. Freeman (UC
Berkeley, USA),
E. Oja ( HUT, Finland), H. Szu (George Washington Univ., USA), L. Xu
(Chinese
Univ. of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China) and X. Yang (Fudan Univ. China).
In addition to mathematical and engineering approaches and their various
applications
we also include brain science and cognitive science in the main stream.
The registration fee is US$420 for regular participants before the
deadline, including
hard copies of the proceedings, reception, one evening entertainment,
free lunch,
banquette, and one half-day's city tour. The registration fee for
students is US$230

traditional and
the modern, the east and the west. Shanghai has completely changed in
the last
decade.
After the conference, a satellite workshop 每 China 每 Japan 每 Korea
joint workshop on
Neurobiology and Neuroinformatics (NBNI2001) co-sponsored by School of
Life
Sciences & Brain Science Research Center, Fudan Univ. China; Zhejiang
Univ. China;
Institute of Neuroscience, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China; BSI
RIKEN, Japan;

Nukina
(Japan),Y. Suh (Korea) and Q. Tong (local organizer, China). The total
participants are
limited to fifty, Scientists from the other countries are also welcome
to participate in
the workshop as discussants.

The following is a CALL FOR PAPERS for a SPECIAL SESSION ON BRAIN
IMAGING of ICONIP2001
Brain imaging is an active research area and explores information processing and
diseases of human brain by analyzing images of the brain taken by various imaging
modalities. This session will focus on recent advances in brain imaging research to
explore natural information processing mechanisms and investigate characteristics of
brain diseases by analyzing images of human brain. Research papers are solicited for
presentation in both structural and functional brain imaging but not restricted to the
following areas.
1. Structural brain imaging (Xray-CT, MRI), Brain shelling, detection of sulcul
and gyral patterns, cortical segmentation, cortical parcellation, segmentation of
subcortical structures, 3-D visualization, rendering; morphometrical correlates of
neurological and psychiatric disease.
2. Functional brain imaging (EEG, MEG, fMRI, PET, SPECT, Optical, Near
Infrared) Source localization, source separation, statistical parameter mapping, time-
series analysis, multi-modality imaging, image registration, image normalization,
resting brain experiments, group data analysis, random design, conjunction analysis.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:
Please send a manuscript (double column IEEE format, up to 6 pages) by email to
one of the session chairs by May 15, 2001. Submissions will be reviewed by three
experts in the field.
DEADLINES
Paper submission: May 15, 2001
Notification of acceptance: June 30, 2001
