About the journal
Neural Networks is an international journal appearing nine times each year that publishes original research  and review articles concerned with the modelling of brain and behavioral processes and the application of these models to computer and related technologies. Models aimed at the explanation and prediction of biological data and models aimed at the solution of technological problems are both solicited, as are mathematical and computational analyses of both types of models. Neural Networks serves as a central, interdisciplinary publication for all researchers in the field and its editors represent a range of fields including psychology, neurobiology, mathematics, physics, computer science, and engineering.

Instructions to Authors
NEURAL NETWORKS LETTER SUBMISSION: Letters (up to 2500 words) are expected to contain exceptionally important new research results for which rapid publication is justified. Three copies of each Letter should be submitted to an appropriate action editor, along with a cover letter that explains why the work is of exceptional importance. Addresses for all authors should be listed on the title page and the corresponding author should be indicated by an asterisk. Each Letter should include an abstract (no more than 100 words), up to eight keywords, and an introductory paragraph. A maximum of 25 references is suggested. Figures and tables together with their legends should occupy no more than one of the pages.
A Letter is submitted directly to an action editor who is an expert in its subject matter. Research areas and addresses of action editors are listed in the first issue each year. A Letter may only be submitted to and reviewed by one action editor. A rejected Letter that is resubmitted and then accepted by another action editor will still be rejected by the editor in- chief. Authors are encouraged to contact prospective action editors by E-mail before submission. Please do not submit a Letter to one of the three Editors-in-Chief, but only to an action editor who has agreed to handle the submission.
The action editor provides a rapid review within 4 weeks and may recommend acceptance or rejection to the editor-in-chief in the corresponding geographical area or may immediately decline to review the Letter. The action editor may also elect to request revisions from the author(s) before making a final recommendation. The editor-in-chief determines publication based on the importance of the Letter, as reflected by its priority rating. Accepted Letters are published on an accelerated basis in the next available issue.
CURRENT OPINIONS SUBMISSION: Exciting short opinions on topics relevant to neural networks research, with a fast pre-publication on http://www.elsevier.com/locate/neunet. Current Opinions should contain a clear statement and present views on a chosen topic. Opinion articles will both be solicited upon invitation as well as be submitted autonomously. The Opinions article should always be submitted directly to one of the editorial office. Authors are encouraged to contact the editorial office by email before submission, including a brief summary of the proposed article of less than one page (300 words). An autonomously submitted Opinions article will either be accepted or rejected; resubmissions will not be accepted. Accepted Current Opinions will be pre-published on http://www.elsevier.com/locate/neunet. Comments on a Current Opinions article will follow the same route and criteria.
Authors should adhere to the following guidelines:
- Three paper copies and a diskette of the Opinions article should be sent to one of The editorial office.
- Address(es) of the author(s) should be listed on the title page and, if more than one author, the corresponding author should be indicated by an asterisk.
- Each Opinion should include a clear statement (that will be used as the Abstract) and up to 5 keywords.
- The ideal Opinion article is exciting, consists of no more than 1250 words, has less than 10 references, and no more than 2 figures.
CONTRIBUTED ARTICLE SUBMISSION: Contributed articles are accepted for consideration with the understanding that they have not been published except in abstract form and are not concurrently under review elsewhere. Manuscripts for all sections should be sent to the editorial office nearest the author:

The original manuscript (including figure captions and references), and 3 complete copies of the manuscript and figures should be submitted with one set of camera-ready figures or photographs (original artwork or glossy prints). Manuscripts should be accompanied by: (a) a cover letter including the name, address and phone and Fax numbers of the author to whom correspondence should be sent; (b) copies of any published reports that may duplicate material in the submitted manuscript; and (c) written permission of authors and publisher(s) to use any previously published material (figures, tables, or quotations of more than 100 words). Authors should retain an additional copy of the manuscript and figures for their own files. Upon acceptance of a manuscript for publication, a copyright transfer form will be sent with the page proofs to the author(s). This must be signed and dated and returned to the publisher with the galleys.
In order to better guide the editorial process of the journal's highly interdisciplinary submissions, authors are asked to designate one of five preferred sections when they submit articles:
1. Psychology and Cognitive Science: This section includes network models whose primary goal is to explain data about the behavior and cognition of animals and humans.
2. Neuroscience and Neuropsychology: This section includes network models whose primary goal is to explain data about brain organization and dynamics, including data that link brain and behavior.
3. Mathematical and Computational Analysis: This section includes systematic and rigorous analyses of network architectures and dynamics that have arisen in either biological or technological contexts.
4. Engineering and Design: This section includes network designs, realized in either software or hardware, whose goal is to solve fundamental engineering problems.
5. Technology and Applications: This section includes networks that are crafted to carry out particular tasks in technology, medical science, or other applications areas.
COPYRIGHT GUIDELINES: Upon acceptance of a manuscript for publication, a copyright transfer will be sent to the author(s). All authors must sign the `Transfer of Copyright' agreement before the article can be published. This transfer agreement enables Elsevier Science Ltd to protect the copyrighted material for the authors, but does not relinquish the author's proprietary rights. The copyright transfer covers the exclusive rights to reproduce and distribute the article, including reprints, photographic reproductions, microform or any other reproductions of similar nature and translations, and includes the right to adapt the article for use in conjunction with computer systems and programs, including reproduction or publication in machine-readable form and incorporation in retrieval systems. Authors are responsible for obtaining from the copyright holder permission to reproduce any figures for which copyright exists.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Letters dealing with published articles or matters of interest to neural network researchers are invited. Letters should be short (not more than 400 words), typed double-spaced, and include references where appropriate. Where a published article is involved, the original author(s) will be invited to submit a response. Letters should be submitted to one of the three editorial offices.
CURRENT EVENTS: The Editors welcome notices of meetings, conferences, and other events of interest to neural network researchers. All such items will be listed (at no charge) in each issue of the Journal and will be continually updated. Send announcements to:

MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION:
Type the manuscript on white bond paper 21.5x 28 cm (8.5 x 11 inch) with broad margins. Use double spacing throughout, including the reference section. Organise the manuscript in the order indicated below, with each component beginning on a separate page and with a running title and page number typed in the upper right-hand corner of each page.
Title Page. Page 1 should include (a) the title of the article (80 spaces maximum); (b) the authors' full names [first name, middle initial(s), surname]; (c) affilations [the name of department (if any), institution, city and state or country where the work was done] indicating which authors are associated with which affiliations; (d) acknowledgements of grant support and of individuals who were of direct help in the preparation of the study; (e) the name, address, phone and Fax numbers, and E-mail address of the author to whom reprint requests are to be sent.
Abstract and Keywords. Page 2 should include the title of the article followed by the abstract of no more than 150 words. The abstract should state the purpose of the study, basic procedures, most important findings, and principle conclusions, with an emphasis on the new aspects of the study. Following the abstract, list 8 keywords or phrases for indexing. In addition, authors should also submit a list of symbols used in mathematical formulas with a description of each symbol.
Text. All manuscripts should be typed on one side of the paper, double spaced with wide margins. Any formulas that require boldface print should be clearly marked both within the text and in the margins.
References. Manuscripts should be prepared using the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 3rd ed., 1985 for style. The reference section must be double-spaced and all works cited must be listed with complete information. All journal titles must be spelled out.

Tables. Authors are asked to keep each table to a reasonable size; very large tables packed with data simply confuse the reader. Each table and every column should be provided with an explanatory heading, with units of measure clearly indicated. The same data should not be reproduced in both tables and figures. Footnotes to a table should be indicated by superscript, lower case letters. Tables and illustrations (along with their footnotes or captions) should be completely intelligible without reference to the text.
Figures. Illustrations for reproduction should normally be about twice the final size required so that the reduced figure will fit on the journal page, and all type should be the same size-no larger than ? high. Figures should be high-quality professionally drawn, high-resolution computer generated, or glossy, high-contrast, black and white photographs. Authors of articles requiring the use of four-color illustrations should contact the publisher. Use a label on the back of each figure to indicate the article's title and the top of the figure. Do not write directly on the back of the photographs. Do not trim, mount, clip, or staple the illustrations. Please securely package all artwork in a protective envelope.
Figure Legends. Legends should be typed double spaced, numbered with Arabic numerals corresponding to the illustrations, and submitted on a separate page. The legends should permit the figures to be understood without reference to the text. If the figure has been previously published, a credit line should be included.
REVIEW AND PRODUCTION PROCESS
All manuscripts are peer reviewed. Authors will receive page proofs of their article before publication and should answer all queries and carefully check all editorial changes at this point. Authors of all original articles and reviews will receive 25 free reprints. Additional copies can be ordered at current printing prices.
