> COURSE CONTENTS
>
> Neural networks (NN) have become a very important tool in classification
> and
> regression tasks. The applications are nowadays abundant, e.g. in the
> engineering, economy and biology areas. The Summer School on NN is
> dedicated
> to explain relevant NN paradigms, namely multilayer perceptrons (MLP),
> radial basis function networks (RBF), support vector machines (SVM) and
> entropy-based networks (ENN) used for classification and regression tasks,
> illustrated with applications to real data. Specific topics are also
> presented, namely relevance vector machines, recurrent networks,
> co-operative structures of NN and data mining using NN.
>
> Classes include practical sessions with appropriate software tools. The
> trainee has, therefore, the opportunity to apply the taught concepts and
> become conversant with a broad range of NN topics and applications.
> A special workshop session will provide a discussion forum where the
> participants can obtain peer guidance for their projects.

> Official language is English.

>
>
> POSTER and WORKSHOP SESSION
> In the session "Workshop and Poster", we intend to discuss some of the
> posters presented by the participants.
> The purpose of the poster is to present some problem that the participant
> wish to discuss with the lecturers and other participants, as a way of
> getting some advise in the better way to solve it using neural networks.
> Encouraging this form of participation as a means of interaction and
> cooperative learning, we invite you to present a poster with a specific
> problem, especially one involved with your research.

transition from associative to rule-based category learning in infants.
The project is entitled From Association to Rules in the Development of
Concepts.
The successful candidate will be required to enroll on a full-time PhD
programme run by the School of Psychology at Birkbeck University
London. Outstanding candidates with a prior degree in experimental
psychology (or a related area) and strong research methods training
should liaise directly with Dr Denis Mareschal (d.mareschal(a)bbk.ac.uk)
prior to applying. The position will begin no later than October 1st,
2005. Applications will be considered until the position is filled.
Further information about the School of Psychology and the PhD
programme can be found at http://www.psyc.bbk.ac.uk/ . Further

International Conference on Machine Intelligence
Tozeur, Tunisia, November 5-7, 2005
http://www.acidca-icmi2005.org
Pleanary sessions, invited talks, workshops, tutorials, special sessions and special events are announced on the conference web site http://www.acidca-icmi2005.org
ACIDCA-ICMI'2005 will be organized into five tracks focusing on theory, implementation and applications.
The tracks are:
* CI : Computational Intelligence
* IC : Intelligent Control
* IDA : Intelligent Data Analysis
* IPA : Intelligent Pattern Analysis
* ISA : Intelligent Systems Architectures
The venue for the ACIDCA-ICMI'2005 Conference will be Tozeur, Tunisia < http://www.tourismtunisia.com/togo/tozeur/tozeur.html >. Tozeur a prosperous town, was once, in its oases and mountains, one of the Roman outposts named "Thusuros" and a stopping point for the caravans coming from the sub Sahara to trade with the coastal cities of the Mediterranean, it now owes its fame and affluence to the stately palm and its world renowned dates - deglet nour "fingers of light".
The conference will be held November 5-7, 2005 in Tozeur in south-western Tunisia accessible by the international airport of Tozeur. The remarkable architecture of Tozeur, beige sun baked bricks set in geometric patterns, Moorish arches and high vaulted ceilings and the shops offering locally woven carpets, Berber jewellery and ornaments, promise visitors another aspect of Tunisia.

the author of a number of books, including Renewing Philosophy and
Pragmatism.
Professor Putnam has developed a position on the nature of truth and
justification which he calls "internal realism," or more recently,
"pragmatic realism," which has become a widely discussed alternative to
both traditional metaphysical kinds of realism and post-modernist
scepticism. In recent years, his interests have centered on the
relations between scientific and non-scientific knowledge.
