<h1>Announcing MathPsych/ICCM 2020</h1>
<p>VENUE: Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel; Toronto, Canada<br>
DATES: July 25-28, 2020</p>
<p>We invite you to MathPsych/ICCM 2020, the joint gathering of the
53rd Annual Meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology and
the 18th 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.</p>
<p>MathPsych/ICCM 2020 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.</p>
<p>The conference will run from <b>July 25, 2020</b> (approx. 9am)
to <b>July 28, 2020</b> (approx. 6pm).</p>

<p>Please note that the Society for Mathematical Psychology has
arranged for a block of rooms at the Sheraton hotel at a
discounted rate. Attendees are <u>strongly</u> urged to make use
of the room block since the Society has made a financial
commitment to the hotel. More information about the room block,
including how to book, can be found on the <a
