8/31 -- Saturday 9/2, 1995. Papers are solicited for,
but not limited to, the following topics:

++ APPLICATIONS:
Image, speech, communications, sensors, medical, adaptive
filtering, OCR, and other general signal processing and pattern
recognition topics.

++ THEORIES:
Generalization and regularization, system identification, parameter
estimation, new network architectures, new learning algorithms, and
wavelets in NNs.

++ IMPLEMENTATIONS:
Software, digital, analog, hybrid technologies, parallel processing.

Prospective authors are invited to submit 5 copies of extended summaries
of no more than 6 pages. The top of the first page of the summary should
include a title, authors' names, affiliations, address, telephone and
fax numbers and e-mail address if any. Camera-ready full papers
of accepted proposals will be published in a hard-bound volume by IEEE
and distributed at the workshop.  For further information, please
contact Mrs. Alice Chiang (Tel.) (617)-981 0711, (Fax) (617)-981 5957
