\noindent
This is the third meeting of a high quality, relatively small,
inter-disciplinary conference
which brings together neuroscientists,
engineers, computer scientists, cognitive scientists, physicists,
and mathematicians interested in all aspects of neural processing
and computation.
Several days of focussed workshops will follow at a nearby ski area.
Major categories and examples of subcategories
for papers are the following:

\begin{quote}
\small
\begin{description}
\item[{\bf 1. Neuroscience:}] Neurobiological models of development,
cellular information processing, synaptic function,
learning, and memory. Studies and analyses
of neurobiological systems and development of
neurophysiological recording tools.

\item[{\bf 2. Architecture Design:}] Design and evaluation of
net architectures to perform cognitive or behavioral functions and to
implement
conventional algorithms. Data representation;
static networks and dynamic networks
that can process or generate pattern sequences.

\item[{\bf 3. Learning Theory:}] Models of learning; training paradigms
for static and dynamic networks; analysis of capability,
generalization, complexity, and scaling.

\item[{\bf 4. Applications:}] Applications to signal processing, vision,
speech, motor control, robotics, knowledge representation, cognitive
modelling and adaptive systems.

\item[{\bf 5. Implementation and Simulation:}]
VLSI or optical implementations of hardware neural nets.
Practical issues for simulations and simulation tools.

\end{description}
\end{quote}

\smallskip
\noindent
{\bf Technical Program:} Plenary, contributed, and poster sessions will be
held. There will be no parallel sessions. The full text of presented papers
will be published.

\medskip
\noindent
{\bf Submission Procedures:} Original research contributions are
solicited, and will be refereed by experts in the respective disciplines.
Authors should submit four copies of a 1000-word (or less) summary and
four copies of a single-page 50-100 word abstract clearly stating their
results by May 30, 1989. Indicate preference for oral or
poster presentation and specify which of the above five broad
categories and, if appropriate,  sub-categories
(for example, {\em Learning Theory: Complexity}, or {\em Applications: Speech})
best applies to your paper. Indicate presentation preference
and category information at the bottom of each abstract page and after
each summary. Failure to do so will delay processing
of your submission.  Mail submissions to Kathie Hibbard, NIPS89 Local Committee,
Engineering Center, Campus Box 425, Boulder, CO, 80309-0425.
