Notice: New paper submission procedure!<BR>
</font><FONT FACE="ARIAL,HELVETICA,HELV" COLOR="#464646">
As in the years before papers presented at the CNS*04 meeting can be
published as a paper in a special issue of the journal Neurocomputing. Authors who would like to see their
CNS*04 presentation published have to submit a <B>complete</B> paper for
review now. You also have the option to instead submit an extended
summary but this cannot be included in the journal. Both types of
submissions will be reviewed but full manuscripts will get back
reviewers' comments and will have to be revised with final submission
shortly after the meeting. The decision of who gets to speak at the
conference is independent of the type of submission, both full papers
and extended summaries qualify. More details on the review process
can be found below.

<H4>Paper submission</H4>
</FONT><FONT FACE="ARIAL,HELVETICA,HELV" COLOR="#464646">
<u>Submission is done on 2 web pages:</u><BR>
A first page which asks for general info on your paper including the
abstract (as text), press <B>Submit</B> when you are done.<BR>
A second page which allows you to specify the pdf file containing
your full paper or extended summary. Prepare the paper or extended summary as a pdf file. <FONT COLOR="RED">The pdf file contains max 6 typeset pages or
max 10 double-space pages plus max 4 illustrations and have a filename of
max 32 characters without blanks</FONT>. Press <B>Submit</B> when you
are done. You will receive a page telling you whether the file was
successfully uploaded.
<P>
<u>You can submit multiple papers:</u><br>
After you completed submission of the
first paper (see above) you follow the link "Go back to my first record";
go to the bottom and press <B>Add new record</B> to create a
(blank) record for the next paper. Provide the required information
on 2 pages as before (press <B>Submit</B> twice). When you return to the
paper submission form you can see on the top of the form how many
papers you have uploaded and use <B>Show Prev/Next record</B> buttons at the
bottom to scroll trough your records.</P>
<P><u>You can withdraw a paper:</u><br>
Select the <B>Withdraw</B> option <B>followed by a Submit</B> if you want to
withdraw the current paper (we will remove the record before the
review process).</P>

<H4>The review process</H4>
</FONT><FONT FACE="ARIAL,HELVETICA,HELV" COLOR="#464646">
All submitted papers will be first reviewed by the program committee.
Papers will be judged and accepted for the meeting based on the
clarity with which the work is described and the biological relevance
of the research. For this reason authors should be careful to make
the connection to biology clear. We reject only a small fraction of
the papers (~ 5%) and this usually based on absence of biological
relevance (e.g. pure machine learning). We will notify authors of
meeting acceptance before begin March.
The second stage of review involves evaluation by two independent
reviewers of full papers submitted to the journal Neurocomputing
(all) and those extended summaries which requested an oral
presentation.
Full papers will be reviewed as real journal publications: each paper
will have an action editor and two independent reviewers. The paper
may be rejected for publication if it contains no novel content or is
considered to contain grave errors. We hope that this will apply to
a small number of papers only but we also need to respect a limit of
maximum 200 published papers which may enforce more strict criteria.
Paper rejection at this stage does not exclude poster presentation at
the meeting itself as we assume that these authors will benefit from
the feedback they can receive at the meeting. Accepted papers will
receive comments for improvements and corrections from the reviewers.
Submissions of the revised papers will be due in August.
Criteria for selection as an oral presentation include perceived
quality, the novelty of the research and the diversity and coherence
of the overall program. To ensure diversity, those who have given
talks in the recent past will not be selected and multiple oral
presentations from the same lab will be discouraged. All accepted
papers not selected for oral talks as well as papers explicitly
submitted as poster presentations will be included in one of three
evening poster sessions. Authors will be notified of the
presentation format of their papers by begin of May.

The proceedings volume is published each year as a special supplement
to the journal Neurocomputing. Only 200 papers
will be published in the proceedings volume. For reference, papers
presented at CNS*02 can be found in volumes 52-54 of Neurocomputing
(2003).
