Workshop Program |
|||
|
The program for the workshop consists of a series of tutorial lectures on specific connectionist models followed by structured modeling sessions in the computer lab. The network architectures covered will include interactive-activation networks, backpropagation networks, simple-recurrent networks, Hopfield networks, self-organizing feature maps, and coupled-oscillator models. Lab sessions will consist of a series of exercises using the BrainWave simulator. The workshop coordinators are Dr. Devin McAuley (Department of Psychology, Ohio State University) and Dr. Simon Dennis (School of Psychology, University of Queensland). The Cognitive Science Center faculty sponsor is Professor Mari Jones (Department of Psychology, Ohio State University).
