Conference support: ICCM 2016: International Conference on Cognitive Modeling

认知建模国际会议（ICCM）汇集了使用计算建模来理解人类认知的研究人员。ICCM是一个展示、讨论和评估认知建模方法的论坛，包括联结主义、符号建模、动态系统、贝叶斯建模和认知架构。它涵盖了各种领域的基础和应用研究。主要研究领域包括感知、注意力、解决问题和学习，以及使用计算模型更好地理解神经成像数据。该奖项将通过为来自科学领域代表性不足的研究生提供支持，提高学生参与度，丰富会议的多样性。一个特别的活动将汇集学生获奖者与教师导师，以促进学生参与会议。该奖项还将资助一位具有认知建模专业知识的早期职业特邀演讲者，他可能会成为赞助学生的榜样。

The International Conference on Cognitive Modeling (ICCM) brings together researchers who use computational modeling to understand human cognition. ICCM is a forum for presenting, discussing, and evaluating the spectrum of cognitive modeling approaches, including connectionism, symbolic modeling, dynamical systems, Bayesian modeling, and cognitive architectures. It encompasses basic and applied research across a wide variety of domains. Major research areas include perception, attention, problem-solving and learning as well as using computational models to better understand neuroimaging data.This award will serve to enhance student participation and enrich diversity in the conference by providing support for graduate students from groups that are underrepresented in science who would not otherwise be able to participate. A special event will bring together student awardees with faculty mentors, to facilitate student involvement in the meeting. The award will also fund an early-career invited speaker with expertise in cognitive modeling who might serve as a possible role model to the sponsored students.
