Instruction for Camera-ready final paper submission

Camera ready material must be submitted by July 22, 2016. All the files must be uploaded to the submission site.

  1. Revise your paper: Please read reviewer comments and revise your paper to address them, add author information and revert any changes you had made.
  2. The camera ready paper should be in the format as the sample paper for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) include reference format. Camera ready copy with all figures and copyright form must be uploaded to the submission site by JULY 22, 2016. The submission site will ask you to upload a .zip file of your all material (see following instruction for detail).
  3. Make sure that you have to write (revise) abstract text in the submission site at the same time. This will be used for publishing the additional abstract book, which will be included in the conference kit.
  4. At least one author must have been registered by JULY 22, 2016. Note that each paper should be associated with a unique FULL registration.

Preparing final camera ready paper:

In the Information for LNCS Authors site, you are able to download the source files including LaTeX2e class file, sample file, word template.

NOTICE: Each paper is allowed to have 8 pages. Up to two additional pages will be permitted for a charge of JPY 5,000 per additional page payable at the registration time. Each paper can have a MAXIMUM of 10 pages in the final camera-ready copy. If your paper is more than 8 pages in length in the final camera-ready copy without paying extra page charges, we will not publish your paper, and we will not refund your registration payment. Each registration can have one more additional paper. Each additional paper is subject to extra charge. Details see the conference registration page. The submission site will ask you to upload a .zip file of your submission. Please zip all your files, including the digital copy of the signed copyright form, and name the .zip file using your paper submission ID (e.g. ICONIP1234.zip, where 1234 is your paper ID number). The source files included in the .zip archive must include

  • LaTeX2e files (*.tex) for the text and PS/EPS/JPG/PNG files for all figures. Please use consistent names for your source files: paperXXX.pdf, paperXXX.tex, where XXX is your paper ID;
  • Any additional style files and fonts you used together with your source files that are not generally available at CTAN;
  • Final PDF file of the paper (for reference);
  • WORD files if you are using a word-processing system other than LaTeX/TeX; (Make sure that you have to use the template files for Word 2003 or Word 2007-2010 in Information for LNCS Authors)
  • LNCS copyright form, which can be signed by the corresponding author on behalf of all authors. Please use "ICONIP2016" as the Conference Name and "Akira Hirose" as the Volume Editors. Please scan your signed copyright form and save it as a JPG or PDF file. Copyright forms should only be provided in an electronic format.

Workshop on Novel Approaches of Systems Neuroscience to Sports and Rehabilitation

Kyoto is located in the central part of the Honshu, the main island of Japan. Kyoto formerly flourished as the imperial capital of Japan as long as 1,000 years after 794 A.D., and known as "The City of Ten Thousand Shrines." There are 17 sites (13 temples, 3 shrines, and 1 castle) in Kyoto that form the UNESCO World Heritage Listing named as the "Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto (Kyoto, Uji and Otsu Cities)." In addition, there are three popular, major festivals (Matsuri) in Kyoto, one of which, called "Jidai Matsuri (The Festival of Ages)," will be held in October 22nd, just after ICONIP 2016.

ICONIP 2016 will provide a high-level international forum for scientists, researchers, industrial professionals, and students worldwide to present state of art research results, address new challenges, and discuss trends in neural information processing and applications. This conference will feature invited plenary talks by world-renowned scholars in the areas of neural network theory and applications, computational neuroscience, machine learning and others. In addition to regular technical sessions with oral and poster presentations, the conference program will include special sessions and tutorials on topics of current interest.

ICONIP 2016 is also the first international conference hosted by The Asia-Pacific Neural Network Society (APNNS), which starts in January 2016. The APNNS will open new doors in research, education and industry cooperation with both global and local approaches from multidisciplinary viewpoints of physiology, psychology, modeling, mathematical engineering, electrical, mechanical and information engineering as well as industrial, medical, and social applications to pursue human welfare extensively. Let’s get together to celebrate this memorial event of our new society in Kyoto!
