<h1> Announcing <font color="#00b050">virtual</font> MathPsych/ICCM
2020</h1>
<p>VENUE: Online venue – access will be provided after registration.
<br>
DATES: July 15-31, 2020, with <b>live Q&A sessions July
22-31, 2020</b>.</p>
<p>We invite you to <font color="#00b050">virtual</font>
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.<br>
</p>
<p><font color="#00b050">Virtual</font> 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.<br>
</p>
<p>The <font color="#00b050">virtual</font> conference will run
from <b>July 15, 2020</b> (approx. 9am Eastern daylight time) to <b>July
31, 2020</b> (approx. 6pm Eastern daylight time) with live
Q&A sessions <b>July 22, 2020</b> to <b>July 31, 2020</b>.
Pre-recorded talks and poster and a discussion forum will be
available throughout the conference period. More information about
the schedule for submitting video presentations, viewing periods
etc., can be found on the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://mathpsych.org/conferences/2020/">conference website</a>.<br>
</p>
<p><font color="#00b050">Virtual</font> MathPsych/ICCM 2020 is now
accepting submissions. Please visit the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://mathpsych.org/conferences/2020/">conference website</a> or
go directly to the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.conftool.org/mathpsych-iccm2020/">submission
website</a>. <br>
</p>
<p><font color="#cc0000"><b>The deadline for all MathPsych and ICCM
submissions is May 8, 2020.</b></font><br>
</p>
<p>There are 4 submission categories:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>Symposia</li>
<li>MathPsych Abstracts (up to 250 words)</li>
<li>ICCM Extended Abstracts (up to 2 pages)</li>
<li>ICCM Full papers (up to 6 pages)</li>
</ol>
<p>Please note that there are 3 categories of presentations:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>Symposia (submissions have closed)</li>
<li>Talks</li>
<li>Posters -- this presentation format will be replaced by
lightning/flash talks</li>
</ol>
<p>For all three presentation types the initial structure will be
identical:<br>
</p>
<p><b>Asynchronous:</b> recorded talks (15 minutes or less for
symposium talks and regular talks; 5 minutes or less for posters,
with no more than 4 slides). After a viewing period, we will open
a discussion board where people can pre-post panel questions. <br>
</p>
<p>Second part of structure:</p>
<p><b>Synchronous:</b> Symposia will be followed by a LIVE
discussion panel during which panelists answer questions from the
discussion board first and then take questions from a live
audience. Times for these discussion panels will be staggered over
time zones. <br>
</p>
<p>More information about the schedule for submitting video
presentations, suggested viewing periods etc., will be made
available on the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://mathpsych.org/conferences/2020/">conference website</a>.<br>
</p>
<h2>How-to<br>
