Subject: New Journal on Neural Information Processing From: Soo-Young Lee <sylee(at)MAIL.KAIST.AC.KR> Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2004 12:13:55 +0900I would like to inform you the new on-line journal, NIP-LR (Neural Information Processing - Letters and Reviews) with timely-publication free-online subscription and double-blind reviews, has been online from October 2003 at http://www.nip-lr.info and http://bsrc.kaist.ac.kr/nip-lr/. (It definitely includels auditory models.) With the help of many people we are able to maintain high-quality and rapid publication with un-biased reviews. The rejection rate so far is about 40%. The first volume, Vol.1, No.1-3 (Oct., Nov., Dec., 2003) has one Review Article by Lei Xu and 8 Letters. The second volume, Vol.2, No.1-3 (Jan., Feb., March 2004), has 9 Letters. Although the original plan comes with one printed publication each year, to cope the current supports of many people and also to have prompt printed books, we will publish 2 printed books each year. Therefore, the printed version of the first 2 volumes will come out by the end of April or early May. (Sorry for the delay!) The subscription rate is US$30 per year (individual) and US$50 per year (library). To celebrate the first volumes we also decided to make them FREE until the end of May 2004. If you want to have the printed volumes free, please provide us (1) Your Name (2) Mailing Address (3) E-mail address by May 31, 2004. The Tables of Contents are attached at the end of this e-mail. best regards, Soo-Young Lee Editor-in-Chief, Neural Information Processing - Letters & Reviews E-mail: nip-lr(at)neuron.kaist.ac.kr HomePage: http://www.nip-lr.info and http://bsrc.kaist.ac.kr/nip-lr/ ================================================================ Neural Information Processing - Letters and Reviews (The high-quality rapid publication with double-blind reviews) -------------------------------------------------------------- Vol.1, No.1, October 2003 Preface pp. i-ii Toward a New Journal with Timeliness, Accessibility, Quality, and Double-Blind Reviews Soo-Young Lee Review pp. 1-52 Independent Component Analysis and Extensions with Noise and Time: A Bayesian Ying-Yang Learning Perspective Lei Xu Letters pp. 53-59 Extraction and Optimization of Fuzzy Protein Sequences Classification Rules Using GRBF Neural Networks Dianhui Wang, Nung Kion Lee, and Tharam S.
