Speakers and Talks

Dear ACACSE Participant,

We are pleased to inform you that we are accepting extended versions of papers which were presented at ACACSE'99 in Ixtapa, to be published by a prestigious publisher in a Book edited by Eduardo and Garret. This Book will be independent of the 2 Volumes of the Clifford Algebra Proceedings. We believe that such a Volume will be more attractive to the general audience of Scientists and Engineers who are interested in applying geometric algebra to specific problems in geometric computing, signal processing, image analysis, wavelets, interpolation and filtering, robotics, computer vision, neural and quantum computing and others. Papers must be of high quality and in LaTeX2e. Please submit all papers to Eduardo Bayro-Corrochano either by (i) email: edb@fractal.cimat.mx or (ii) snail mail: Please send two printed copies of your paper, and a diskette in PC format including your .tex, .dvi and .ps files to

Dr. Eduardo Bayro-Corrochano
Centro de Investigacion en Matematicas, A.C. Apartado Postal 402
36000 - Guanajuato, Gto. Mexico

(iii) The deadline for submissions is September 30 1999.

(iv) Please reply immediately if you are contributing so that we can make up an accurate mailing list.

Sincerely,

The Editors, Eduardo Bayro-Corrochano, Garret Sobczyk

Goal of the Workshop:

To gather scientists interested in the application of Geometric/Clifford algebras to various areas of Applied Mathematics and Engineering. The growing interest in and successful applications of geometric algebra deserve the attention and recognition of the larger Scientific Community. This workshop is meant to energize and encourage discussion of the pertinent issues in the successful application of geometric algebra to wider and wider fields of interest, including but not limited to:

cybernetics
computer science
artificial intelligence
quantum computing
robotics

image processing
computer vision
neural networks
brain and neurosciences
electrical and electronic engineering

mechanical and control engineering
optimization
statistical geometry and geometric reasoning
Jordan and SVD decomposition applied to multivectors

Preliminary list of speakers and talks:

A preliminary list of speakers and talks can be found here. For a list of speakers and talks of the entire conference go to speakers.

Submission of Abstracts:

Abstracts for papers should be submitted to either of the Organizers of the Workshop Special Parallel Session. If accepted the author(s) will be invited to present paper. The Proceedings of ACACSE'99 will be published as part of the Main Conference Proceedings, or possibly as a separate Volume. Instructions and format (in LaTeX2e) are available upon request of the two files: <plik.cls> and <instruc.tex> from ixtapa@xaman-ha.cuautitlan2.unam.mx .

Two members of the Program Committee will review each paper. Please indicate clearly that the submitted Abstract and Paper are for the Workshop Special Parallel Session.
