Germany Lines: 30 To people working or interested in the field of representation of large-scale space and spatial reasoning !! I'm a member of an AI and Cognitive Science group at the Technical University of Munich, West-Germany, working on connectionist models for spatial reasoning processes. I'm currently working on a parallel processing model for cognitive- map based path/route-finding. Since I am planning a research visit to the United States I am looking for people working on similar topics, who might be interested in a collaboration. I expect to be financially independent through a six months scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Service.
