  Announcing virtual MathPsych/ICCM 2021 and Call for Symposia

We invite you to virtual MathPsych/ICCM 2021, the joint gathering of the 
54th Annual Meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology and the 
19th International Conference on Cognitive Modelling (ICCM): the premier 
conference for research on computational models and computation-based 
theories of human cognition. Following our success in previous years, 
ICCM has again joined forces with the Society for Mathematical 
Psychology to create a conference in which all sessions are open to all 
attendees, and cross-talk is highly encouraged.

Virtual MathPsych/ICCM 2021 is a forum for presenting and discussing the 
complete spectrum of cognitive modeling approaches, including 
connectionism, symbolic modeling, dynamical systems, Bayesian modeling, 
and cognitive architectures. Research topics can range from low-level 
perception to high-level reasoning. We also welcome contributions that 
use computational models to better understand neuroscientific data.

      Format and venue

Following the model of the successful 2020 virtual meeting, the 
conference will be fully online, with no in-person component, and all 
submitted presentations to be provided as recordings.

The conference will once again take place on the Society for 
Mathematical Psychology’s online venue, mathpsych.org 
<https://mathpsych.org>. Access will be provided upon registration.

      Important dates

Abstract submission deadline (MathPsych)
	April 15, 2021
*Abstract submission deadline (ICCM)*
	*May 7, 2021*
SMP acceptance notification 	May 1, 2021

    Call for symposia

Symposia are blocks of four to eight regular-length presentations on a 
relatively narrow topic. “Regular length” means that there are 20 
minutes total per presentation (this includes time for questions and 
answers). To propose a symposium, send an email to 
conferencecommittee at mathpsych.org 
<mailto:conferencecommittee at mathpsych.org> with subject line 
“Symposium:” followed by a short title. In the body of the email, please 
provide a symposium title; a 200-250 word abstract; and a proposed list 
of speakers. Please also indicate which speakers (if any) have already 
agreed to contribute.

The deadline for symposium proposals is *April 15, 2021*. The conference 
committee will review proposals within one week. The strongest proposals 
involve a topic that is of interest to many conference attendees, while 
also attracting new people who don’t normally attend the conference. 
Ideally, many of the proposed speakers have already agreed to contribute.

    Submission categories

There are four submission categories. In all cases, authors should send 
in an abstract or paper for review. Once the submission is accepted, 
authors will be invited to record a presentation. These recorded 
presentations will be made available for viewing some time before the 
interactive component of the conference starts.

*MathPsych Virtual Talk* 	Submission length 	up to 250 words

	Video duration 	up to 15 minutes

	Live Q&A 	TBD dates between July 1–12
*MathPsych Virtual Fast Talk* 	Submission length 	up to 250 words

	Video duration 	up to 5 minutes
*ICCM Extended Abstract* 	Submission length 	up to 2 pages

	Video duration 	up to 5 minutes

	Live online poster session 	TBD date between July 1 – 12
*ICCM Full Paper* 	Submission length 	up to 6 pages

	Video duration (if accepted as *talk*) 	up to 15 minutes

	Live Q&A (if accepted as *talk*) 	TBD dates between July 1 – 12

	Video duration (if accepted as *poster*) 	up to 5 minutes

	Live online poster session (if accepted as *poster*) 	TBD dates between 
July 1 – 12

Note that not all Virtual Talks will feature in a live Q&A session.

      How-to

A how-to guide for prerecording your video presentation along with 
uploading instructions will be made available on the conference website.
