There may be a problem with a few extra commas, depending on your email package. In any case, you might have to replace "<" with "[", "," with ".", etc depending on your email program. It's a bit late - but I appear to have recovered the great majority of my files, and the basic software is in place with only 100 $ or so of re-purchases.

Dear Colleagues,

The 2007 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN 2007), sponsored by the International Neural Network Society and co-sponsored by the IEEE computational Intelligence Society, is the premier event in the field of neural networks. We are only four weeks away from the opening of this exciting event.

  1. Online registration is open: http://www.ijcnn2007.org/registration.htm
  2. Hotel reservation at a special conference rate is available.
  3. The final IJCNN 2007 technical program is posted online.
  4. Plenary lectures by world-renowned scientists:
    • Stephen Grossberg, Boston University: "20 Years of Neural Networks:  A Promising Start, A Brilliant Future"
    • Stan Franklin, University of Memphis: "Computational Models of Consciousness"
    • Wolf Singer, Max Planck Institute for Brain Research: "Oscillations, Synchrony and Temporal Codes in Cortical Processing"
    • Jose Principe, University of Florida: "An Information Theoretic Framework for Machine Learning and Neural Networks"
  5. Banquet Keynote Speaker:
    • Michael I. Jordan, University of California, Berkeley: "Nonparametric Bayesian Hierarchies "

There will be several special events at the conference:
  1. A panel session dedicated to the "Celebration of 20 Years of Neural Networks". Panelists include neural networks pioneers, inaugural and sitting presidents, inaugural and sitting Editor-in-Chiefs of the key Neural Networks journals. Come join me for this special occasion on August 13 at 10am.
  2. A special exhibit on the "20 Years of Neural Networks" will be on display at prominent locations at the conference. We will show you the history and our current strong standing as a community through pictures and posters.
  3. A post-conference workshop on "Neural Nets: The Next 20 Years - Choices and Challenges" will be held on August 17 at 7pm.
  4. A special "Women-in-Computational Intelligence" luncheon/meeting will be held on August 17th at 12 noon.
  5. The organizers of the Workshop on "Brain-Machine Interfaces" welcome active participation of conference attendees. The list of topics to be discussed includes:
    • Control feature extraction from spikes, LFPs, ECoG, and EEG Data compression and representation of neural activity
    • Optimization of input-output models for mapping neural activity to behavior
    • Computing with spikes
    • Strategies for dealing with nonstationarities in real BMI applications
    • Techniques to analyze the spatio-temporal processes that activate behavior
    The program consists of nine speakers from leading laboratories in the field. Details can be found on the workshop website http://nrg.mbi.ufl.edu/workshops/IJCNN2007BMI/index.htm.
  6. Several other workshops also have dedicated web sites. Check them out at http://www.ijcnn2007.org/workshopinfo.htm
    7.  and mark your calendar to participate! These are good opportunities to have in-depth discussions on the topics of your interest.
  7. The submission deadline for the "Agnostic Learning vs. Prior Knowledge Competition and Data Representation Discovery" workshop has been extended to August 1st.

Dear Sir,
I want a booking from the 12th August to the 17th August. I a research student at Indian institute of Technology Delhi. I have my paper (paper ID 1035 ) selected for presentation at the IJCNN Conference. I was unable to access the hotel website. However when i tried to book my room on the 23rd july. It was said to me that the group fares are not applicable.
Kindly help me in booking my room at the hotel with the group fares.
With best wishes
