> CALL FOR PAPERS > > The 8th International Conference on Neural Information Processing > ICONIP 2001 > November 14-18, 2001 > Shanghai, China. > > SPECIAL SESSION ON BRAIN IMAGING > > Brain imaging is an active research area and explores information > processing and diseases of human brain by analyzing images of the brain > taken by various imaging modalities. This session will focus on recent > advances in brain imaging research to explore natural information > processing mechanisms and investigate characteristics of brain diseases by > analyzing images of human brain. Research papers are solicited for > presentation in both structural and functional brain imaging but not > restricted to the following areas. > > 1. Structural brain imaging (Xray-CT, MRI) > Brain shelling, detection of sulcul and gyral patterns, cortical > segmentation, cortical parcellation, segmentation of subcortical > structures, 3-D visualization, rendering; morphometrical correlates of > neurological and psychiatric disease. > > 2. Functional brain imaging (EEG, MEG, fMRI, PET, SPECT, Optical, Near > Infrared) > Source localization, source separation, statistical parameter mapping, > time-series analysis, multi-modality imaging, image registration, image > normalization, resting brain experiments, group data analysis, random > design, conjunction analysis. > > SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: > > Please send a manuscript (double column IEEE format, up to 6 pages) > by email to one of the session chairs by May 15, 2001. Submissions > will be reviewed by three experts in the field. > > DEADLINES > > Paper submission: May 15, 2001 > Notification of acceptance: June 30, 2001 > Camera-ready papers due: July 31, 2001 > > For more information about the conference, please refer to the > ICONIP2001 web site: > http://www.cie-china.org/ICONIP2001 > > SESSION CHAIRS > > Dr. Jagath C.
