PAPER SUBMISSION

Prospective authors are invited to submit original, high quality manuscripts

of up to eight A4-pages electronically. The submission must conform to the

Springer LNCS format. All accepted papers will be able to be published in

proceedings of ICONIP'09 as a Springer LNCS volume. Extended version of

selected papers will be invited for publication in special issues of

international journals after the conference.

The ICONIP'09 online submission system is open at Springer's Online Conference

Service (OCS). More information can be found at the paper submission site of

ICONIP'09. (http://www.iconip09.org/submit.php)

SPECIAL ISSUES

The following special issues have been confirmed thus far:

- Int. Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience (American Scientific Publisher)

- Neural Computing and Applications (Springer)

- Neurocomputing (Elsevier)

More special issues in high quality journals will be announced shortly at the

conference website.

CALL FOR SPECIAL SESSIONS

Proposals are solicited for ICONIP'09 special sessions. The special sessions

will consist of both invited and contributed papers. In addition to the core

fields of neural information processing, specific areas such as cognitive modeling,

computational neuroscience, bioinformatics, computer vision, financial applications,

and so on, are strongly encouraged. All accepted papers will appear in the

ICONIP'09 conference proceedings. Each proposal for special sessions should include

the following information:

* Title of the special session

* Special session organizer and affiliation

* Subject areas to be covered by the special session

* Potential authors

Important Dates:

Deadline for special session submission: June 1, 2009

Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2009

Deadline for special session papers: July 1, 2009

Notification of acceptance: August 1, 2009

Camera-ready manuscript and pre-registration: September 1, 2009

The proposal should be submitted to one of the following Special Sessions Chairs:

Masumi Ishikawa (ishikawa [at] brain [dot] kyutech [dot] ac [dot] jp)

Tom Gedeon (tom [at] cs [dot] anu [dot] edu [dot] au)

Shaoning Pang (spang [at] aut [dot] ac [dot] nz)

CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

The ICONIP'09 Organizing Committee invites proposals for tutorials to be held

immediately preceding the main program of the conference. The tutorials should

provide in-depth coverage to topics of current interest in neural information

processing, including computational intelligence and the computational modeling

of neural and cognitive function.

Proposals for tutorials should be submitted in electronic form (Word or pdf)

by May 15, 2009 to the Tutorials Chair, Kevin Wong (k.wong [at] murdoch [dot] edu [dot] au).

CALL FOR COMPETITIONS

ICONIP'09 will feature several competitions where neural information processing

will be compared with traditional or other alternative methods for solving

computationally-intensive practical problems. Proposals should be submitted to

John Sum, Competitions Chair (pfsum [at] nchu [dot] edu [dot] tw) by May 31, 2009.

Decision on the competition proposals will be made by June 30, 2009.

Best competition results will be considered for inclusion in an ICONIP'09 Special

Issue. Details will be provided later on at the ICONIP'09 competition site.

Stay tuned for more details to come.

POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS

There is currently one approved post ICONIP'09 conference workshop

at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to be held on December 7, 2009:
