CALL FOR PAPERS/PARTICIPATION
Workshop on INDUCING COMPLEX REPRESENTATIONS
August 26, 1996, Cairns, Queensland, Australia
held in conjunction with the The Fourth Pacific Rim
International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (PRICAI-96)
FOCUS:
The past few years have witnessed the development of several
complex inductive paradigms where the underlying knowledge
representation is more complex than that of the conventional
propositional concept-learning systems and hence potentially
more useful in real-life applications. Much of this activity
has focussed on the induction of logic programs or Horn
clause theories, giving rise to the area of Inductive Logic
Programming (ILP). More recently, there has been growing
interest in the problem of inducing theories in a variety of
distinct but related formalisms. These include
constraint-based representations, including constraint logic
programs (this is often referred to as the problem of
Inductive Constraint Logic Programming or ICLP), nonmonotonic
theories, spatial representations and diagrammatic
representations, to name but a few. This workshop seeks to
bring together researchers from all of these areas, to identify
commonalities in the methods utilized and to encourage
cross-fertilization of ideas.
Specifically, the areas of interest for this workshop include,
but are not limited to:
* Inductive Logic Programming. Much of the research on inducing
complex representations has been motivated by and is based on
results from the ILP area. New ILP results are thus of interest
to this workshop, specially results that may eventually apply
to other inductive paradigms as well.
*Inductive Constraint Logic Programming.
Topics of interest include:
(1). Constraint induction: Much needs to be done in defining
techniques for inducing constraints in the well-known constraint
domains. Of interest as well is the issue of integrating
domain-specific constraint induction methods to obtain techniques
for inducing constraint logic programs which operate on multiple
domains.
(2). Adaptation of ILP techniques to ICLP.
(3). Definition of semantics for inducing constraint logic programs.
(4). Learnability results for knowledge represented in the form of
constraint logic programs.
(5). Studies on the utility of constraint induction algorithms in
speedup learning for constraint solving.
(6). Applications of constraint induction (e.g. robot
motion , spatial reasoning ) and reports of working ICLP systems.
* Inducing nonmonotonic representations. Frameworks for inducing
non-monotonic representations need to be addressed. Recent studies
have focussed on inducing logic programs with different notions of
negation. Much remains to be done to clarify the role of frameworks
for inducing non-monotonic logic programs and other non-monotonic
representations.
* Inducing spatial representations.
* Inducing diagrammatic representations.

LANGUAGE ENGINEERING IN EDINBURGH
A special theme in the
MSC IN COGNITIVE SCIENCE AND NATURAL LANGUAGE
at
THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH
For the 1996-97 academic year, CCS is offering a new theme in Language
Engineering within its MSc programme. A number of studentships are
available for UK students (paying fees and living allowance) and EC
students (paying fees only) to undertake the MSc. This specialised
theme combines theoretical training in language and speech processing
with practical language engineering and system design techniques.
Students will take modules offered by CCS, the Department of
Linguistics, the Department of Artificial Intelligence, and the HCRC's
Language Technology Group, which cover the following topics:
o Parsing and natural language understanding
o Speech synthesis and recognition
o Corpus-based and statistical language processing
o Logic programming and knowledge representation
o System design and implementation
Students participating in this theme are expected to have previous
programming experience, and some background in computational or
theoretical linguistics. For their dissertation, students will work
closely with members of the HCRC's Language Technology Group on the
research and development of practical language processing systems.
LTG have a wide experience of collaborative applied research,
especially within EC funded projects.
The deadline for application is 15 April 1996. For information and
application details contact:

Subject: Announcement: New Cognitive Science PhD Program at Carleton
Date: 9 Mar 1996 12:57:35 GMT
CARLETON UNIVERSITY
Ph.D. in Cognitive Science
Pending final approval, Carleton University in Ottawa, ON, Canada,
plans to begin offering a Ph.D. in Cognitive Science in Sept. 1996. This
will be the first dedicated, fully structured Ph.D. programme in Cognitive
Science in Canada. A brief description of the programme follows; for more
information, please contact Andrew Brook, Director, Cognitive Science
Research Unit, at abrook@ccs.carleton.ca, or at the regular mail address
given at the end. We would be particularly interested in hearing from
prospective students.
Further information can be obtained from our Web site,
http://superior.carleton.ca/~jlogan/Grad_Cog_Sci.html
which is under development.
The programme will be housed in its own facilities in the
Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies at Carleton. 26 faculty from the
five core disciplines of Artificial Intelligence, Cognitive Psychology,
Linguistics, Philosophy, and Neuroscience participate in the programme.
All the academic units involved actively support the programme. 17 of the
26 core faculty are at Carleton, the other nine are drawn from the
University of Ottawa, McGill University, and the federal Communications
Research Centre. Faculty from Queen's University are also attached to the
programme in a looser arrangement.
Upon approval, students will be able to enter the programme with
an honours Bachelor's degree or with a Master's degree in a cognitive
discipline or combination of cognitive disciplines. It is possible to
enter the programme directly after finishing a Bachelor's degree. Students
in the programme will do a combination of dedicated core courses and
courses from contributing departments in their first two years (three
years for students entering with a Bachelor's degree). An important
feature of the programme is a `methodology rotation', in which students,
as part of the comprehensive examination required before beginning
dissertation research, will spend a term in the research facilities of
three of the participating academic units. After completion of courses and
the comprehensive examination, students will join the research facilities
of their supervisor to do dissertation research. The dissertation
committee will be interdisciplinary.
Financial assistance will be available for qualified students with
strong records. Initially it is expected that only about five students
will be admitted per year, so interested students should contact us early.
All new graduate programmes in Ontario have to pass a review at the
provincial level. Admissions will not be able to be finalized until this
review has been successfully completed. We hope to have it completed
before students have to make decisions about other opportunities.
Anyone interested in the programme is invited to contact us at:
abrook@ccs.carleton.ca,
or through our Web site,
http://superior.carleton.ca/~jlogan/Grad_Cog_Sci.html

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The Annual Cognitive Science Conference began with the La Jolla
Conference on Cognitive Science in August of 1979. The organizing
committee of the Eighteenth Annual Conference would like to welcome
members home to La Jolla. We plan to recapture the pioneering spirit
of the original conference, extending our welcome to fields on the
expanding frontier of Cognitive Science, including Artificial Life,
Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience, Evolutionary Psychology, as
well as the core areas of Anthropology, Computer Science, Linguistics,
Neuroscience, Philosophy, and Psychology.
The conference will feature plenary addresses by invited speakers,
invited symposia by leaders in their fields, technical paper sessions,
a poster session, a banquet, and a Blues Party. San Diego is the home
of the world-famous San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal Park, Sea World, the
historic all-wooden Hotel Del Coronado, beautiful beaches, mountain
areas and deserts, is a short drive from Mexico, and features a high
Cappuccino Index. Bring the whole family and stay a while!
