One more suggestion for your list of beginning books on connectionism.  
        Bechtel, W. & Abrahamsen, A. (1991).  Connectionism and the Mind:
        An Introduction to Parallel Processing in Networks.  Oxford:  
        Basil Blackwell.

Adele and I wrote this book with beginners, especially philosophers, in
mind.  We step through some of the very basic processes in connectionist
nets, and then discuss a broad range of conceptual/philosophical issues
(pattern recognition versus logical reasoning, intentionality, etc.), the
objections of Fodor and Pylyshyn and Pinker and Prince, and finally
conclude with a discussion of the relation of connectionist modeling to
the various cognitive science disciplines.  Hope this may be of use to
some people.  Cheers, Bill

          I would appreciate references on "Dick and Jane" stories
          that can be used to communicate an elementary understanding
          of topics such as Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks, and
          Nonlinear Dynamical Systems.  These stories
          should appeal to a class of people who are "quantitative
          disadvantaged" or even innumerant!  A cartoon approach would
          be quite acceptable!!!!

        Does anyone have a suggested list of readings on applications of 
        neural networks in vision?  Specifically, I am working on an 
        algorithm to detect and classify bacteria given greyscale images
        from a microscope.

        Thank you,

        Richard Herrell

        Interesting Fact:

        When IBM's shares droped from aproximately $180 a share to its
        current levels of about $80-$60 a share, the loss of capital
        was greater than the combined values of Coke and Pepsi.

The good news is that the people who have gotten our beta version of
VFSR to work on their applications are very pleased.  The bad news is
that because of some blunders made in the process of making the code
user-friendly, the code has to be modified to use as a standalone
function call.  This bug is corrected and some other fixes/changes
are made in version v6.20.
 
This version is now updated in netlib@research.att.com.  It will
eventually find its way into the other NETLIB archives.

Subject: JOB OPENING AT UMASS(AMHERST)
From:    DAVID A ROSENBAUM <rosetree@titan.ucc.umass.edu>
Date:    Tue, 01 Dec 92 16:11:20 -0500

Subject: Job Opening at UMass (Amherst)
From: David Rosenbaum
      Tobin Hall
      Department of Psychology
          University of Massachusetts
          Amherst, MA 01003 (USA)     

I seek your assistance in finding someone for a position at the
University of Massachusetts, Amherst.  I have been awarded a Research
Scientist Development Award (RSDA) from the National Institute of Mental
Health.  The award allows me to devote full time to research for 5 years
(beginning September 30, 1992).  It also provides funds to hire someone
to cover the courses I normally teach.  The person occupying the
replacement position is expected to engage in research that complements
my own.  My colleagues and I are therefore looking for someone to teach
in the area of cognitive/experimental psychology (3 courses per year,
typically one graduate and two undergraduate) and to do research related
to my interests.

Currently, I am working on a computational model of movement selection
(primarily for reaching and related behaviors).  My students and I are
testing predictions of the model with normal adult human subjects, using
an Optotrak recording system housed in our Department.  Ideally, we would
like to find someone with a strong background in cognitive or
experimental psychology who is well versed in computational approaches to
cognition and performance, especially, but not exclusively, in the domain
of motor control.  If you know of such a person and think he or she might
be interested in this opportunity, would you please bring it to his or
her attention?  A copy of the ad, which will be appearing soon in the APA
Monitor and APS Observer, is attached.

Our Psychology Department is an exciting place for someone with interests
in the cognitive substrates of motor control.  My colleague, Professor
Rachel Clifton, also holds an RSDA; one of her areas of study is infant
motor development.  We have close ties to biomechanists in the Exercise
Science Department, roboticists and connectionist modellers in the
Computer Science Department, and neuroscientists in our own department
and in Biology.  The UMass Psychology Department has a strong faculty in
cognitive and neuroscience generally.  There are frequent
interdisciplinary meetings involving the many people in the greater
Amherst area who are concerned with basic and applied issues related to
the control of action, and there are many other meetings as well
pertaining to other areas of cognitive science.

A word about the timing of the appointment is in order.  Funds are
available to hire someone immediately, although only on a temporary
basis; that is, the replacement position cannot be filled permanently
until September, following a full affirmative-action search.  Anyone
hired on a temporary basis will be expected to teach at least 1 and
possibly 2 courses in the Spring semester (which begins in late January).
Whether the person teaches 1 course or 2 depends on his or her abilities
and desires, as well as departmental needs.  The temporary appointment
can begin earlier than January, as far as I know.  In the best of all
worlds, the person hired temporarily will then stay on for the full 4
years, but this is not guaranteed.

I look forward to hearing from you or someone you might tell about this
position.  Please feel free to contact me at the above address or at any
of the numbers below for further information.  It is advisable to respond
quickly to this call.

Thank you for your kind attention.

Here is the ad that will appear soon in the APA Monitor
and the APS Observer:

COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY: The Department of Psychology at 
the University of Massachusetts/Amherst anticipates an 
opening for a non-tenure track position at the Assistant or 
Associate Professor level, starting September 1993 and renewable 
through August 1997.  Preference will be given for individuals 
with primary interests in the cognitive substrates of human 
motor control, perceptual-motor integration, or human 
performance, although candidates focusing on other topics will 
be considered.  Send vita, statement of interest, representative 
papers, and at least three letters of recommendation to: Dr. 
David A. Rosenbaum, Search Committee, Department of 
Psychology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003.  
Review of applications will begin January 18 and continue until 
the position is filled.  The University of Massachusetts is an

Subject: Post-Doctoral Openings
From:    "James L. McClelland" <jlm@crab.psy.cmu.edu>
Date:    Wed, 02 Dec 92 10:18:02 -0500


I have an opening in my laboratory for at least one post-doctoral fellow
and possibly two.  These would be two-year post-doctoral fellowships,
with the possibility of extension if the applicant can raise additional
funding for additional years.  The default start date is September 1
1993, but other dates may be possible.

I'm looking for individuals with strengths in the mathematical analysis
of neural networks who wish to apply these strengths to the development
of a computational framework for modeling human cognition.  Prior work
demonstrating these strengths and interests will be given considerable
weight.

Two specific areas of interest in my laboratory are:

1. Dynamics of information processing.  The goal here has been to develop
mathematical analyses of stochastic, symmetric, diffusion networks and apply
these in an effort to understand the time-course of human information
processing as this is exhibited in information processing tasks studied
extensively in the human cognitive psychology literature.  We are also
interested in further studies of learning in stochastic networks, building on
recent work in my laboratory (with Javier Movellan, a departing postdoc) and
elsewhere. 

2. Learning and memory.  One goal here is to understand from a
computational point of view why humans have two memory systems.
Neuropsychological evidence suggests that one may loose the ability to
acquire new memories for specific facts and experiences, while at the
same time showing completely normal acquisition of various cognitive,
perceptuo-motor, and language processing skills.  The questions in this
area are, Why should there be two different kinds of learning in the
human brain, What are the essential properties of each, and how do they
work together.

Basically, I am looking for individuals who are interested in working on
some aspect of either of these broad problems.  My style in working with
post-docs is to find a specific problem of mutual interest and develop a
collaboration around that.

Please do not reply by email.

If you are interested please send me a letter along with a CV, your
publications or preprints, and the names, addresses and phone numbers of
two individuals who can comment on your work.  Send your materials by
December 20 to:

James L. McClelland
Department of Psychology
Carnegie Mellon University
Pittsburgh, PA 15213

Upon receipt of these materials I will reciprocate with recent papers from my
laboratory as a way of beginning a discussion of whether we can find a fit
between our interests.
