Dear Colleagues, please accept our apologies for multiple postings. * 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS (deadline extension) * International Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Neuroimaging (PRNI 2011) Seoul, Korea, May 16-18, 2011 http://brain.korea.ac.kr/prni2011 <http://brain.korea.ac.kr/prni2011> Pattern recognition and machine learning techniques provide a new way to analyze complex and huge brain imaging datasets. Many challenges are also present in other applications of pattern recognition, such as non-stationary distributions, model regularisation, high-dimensional time series, or causality modeling. Following the success of the first Workshop on Brain Decoding (Istanbul, 2010), this three-day workshop aims at providing an opportunity for discussing recent advances in methods and applications, while trying to narrow the gap between imaging modalities. A subfield where discussion is of special interest is that of real-time methods, as they are at the confluence of modalities (EEG/fMRI) and at the forefront of machine learning research (incremental learning, non-i.i.d. data). Interpretability of classification and regression machines is also critical to increasing interactions between methods and application-oriented researchers, and is of particular interest for this workshop. Several travel scholarships will be available for Ph.D. students and post-docs, and will be awarded competitively based on reviewer scores of the papers. Keynote speakers will include Stephen Strother (University of Toronto, Canada) Stephen LaConte (Baylor College of Medicine, USA) SCOPE The workshop welcomes original contributions using relevant modalities (e.g. functional/structural MRI, EEG, ECoG, MEG) including the following areas: * Data representation Voxel / channel / feature selection Linear and non-linear dimensionality reduction Sparse time-course representations Interpretability and validation * High-dimensional learning Regularisation Transfer learning Multimodal / ensemble classification Incremental / online learning and adaptation * Applications Cognitive, affective, and social neurosciences Man-machine interfaces Clinical applications SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS Authors should prepare full 4-pages papers (double-column, IEEE style). Extended abstract are not accepted. The review process will be double-blind. Proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Science Society in electronic format. They will be permantently available on the IEEExplore and IEEE CS Digital Library online repositories, and indexed in IEE INSPEC, EI Compendex (Elsevier), Thomson ISI, and others.
