Rumelhart FROM: Ben Martin Bly, Adele Abrahamsen, Gary Cottrell, and Jay McClelland Dear Friends and colleagues, The group of us, with some input from a few others, are coordinating an effort to host a party in honor of Dave on the weekend of October 16-17, 1999 in Pittsburgh, PA (current home of Jay McClelland). As many of you probably know, Dave has left Stanford, and is no longer involved in academic work. He lives comfortably with his brother Don, and Don's wife Judy, in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Dave has left academia because he is suffering from a progressive loss of cognitive and linguistic function. His condition has been diagnosed as Pick's disease. Pick's disease is a very serious illness, with an inevitable progressive course over a 5-10 year period. At this point, Dave's ability to find words to express some of his thoughts is severely impaired, and his thoughts themselves are sometimes confused. This disease affects semantic knowledge and word finding but tends to leave quite a bit of recent episodic memory intact. It is likely that he will have forgotten some of us, his former colleagues. But his visual recognition is far better than verbal, and so he may recognize more of us by sight than by name. Dave's memory for the semantic content of scientific interactions, and his ability to understand or discuss that content, is gone. Nevertheless, he is, in many ways, the same Dave. He is a fierce competitor at various games, unchanged in his formidable degree of focus. as in the past, he avidly enjoys jigsaw puzzles, bowling, and ping-pong, among other diversions. He seems relaxed and comfortable with his situation and with having people around him, and it is easy to enjoy his company. We all feel that we'd like to do something to honor Dave and celebrate his contributions while it is still possible for him to appreciate the event. The disease process appears to be progressing, and so we have decided on a date fairly early in the fall. We know that the early date will mean that some people who might otherwise want to come will have prior commitments, but we felt that it would be important to do this soon. Right now we're writing simply to provide a general, preliminary invitation, and to ask you let us know quickly whether you plan to attend. "Maybes" are welcome at this point, so please reply even if you are uncertain. Please address any replies concerning attendance or invitations to Ben Martin Bly. Here are some preliminary thoughts on the event itself. We're open to input. We're also open to suggestions of people to invite, and have appended the list of invitees so that you can see who has been invited thus far. Note that our goal is to welcome all those who would like to participate, understanding that many who would love to be there will not be able to make it. So please send your thoughts on who we've left off -- with email addresses if at all possible. We thought the event would start in the morning on Saturday, October 16, and continue through lunch on Sunday, October 17. Most people from out of town would probably want to arrive on the evening of October 15, and we will be making arrangements with a hotel in the area for a group rate. Jay McClelland will be the local arrangements manager for this event. There is a small budget for some of the core local expenses, but no funds for any travel or hotel, and not enough funds to fully cover meal expenses. Thus, we will probably have to ask each participant to contribute something on the order of $75.00 to cover meals and other expenses. Contributions over and above this amount would be most welcome, of course, and will be gratefully acknowledged unless a contributor prefers anonymity. Our thought is that we'd ask selected participants who have worked extensively with Dave to say something about how Dave influenced them and their work. Ideally these presentations would not be standard scientific talks --- Dave would not understand those very well at this point, and also the group will be quite broad. Instead, we are hoping that people will stress the key issues, and also work in interesting personal anecdotes about their experiences and memories from the time they worked with Dave. Humor, visuals, and skits would all be quite welcome. Once we know how many people will attend, we'll know how many it makes sense to ask to speak. Gary Cottrell has agreed to be the program manager, and is open to everyone's input on the program. We also thought there should be ample time in the schedule for things like a ping-pong tournament, in which we suspect Dave would emerge victorious (he's currently able to beat a lot of people after spotting them as much as 15 points per game!). We have thought of producing a book in honor of Dave's contributions, and one idea would be to select a few of his seminal papers, and pair these with papers by other participants that reflect Dave's influence. We are considering whether to relate Dave's career to the history of cognitive science, and to what extent it might be useful to include contributions that reflect the ideas that influenced him. Adele Abrahamsen has agreed to be the publication manager for our group. So, please do the following: 1. Quickly let Ben know the probability that you will attend (especially if it is near 1 or 0). Also indicate how interested you are in contributing to the program (Ben will pass this information on to Gary). Significant others are welcome; please let us know who you'd like to bring. 2. Send any suggestion concerning additional invitees to Ben. Especially if you have email addresses for people in the "missing contacts" list at the bottom of this meesage! 3. Send any suggestions concerning the program to Gary. 4. Send any suggestions you may have for the publication to Adele. We hope you can make it!

We are planning a full weekend, including breakfast early on Saturday morning, so flying in on Friday would be best. Because we hope that people will be coming on Friday night, and because we want to make best use of the time, we will have a dinner Friday night beginning with a reception at 6 pm. The schedule for Saturday may begin as early as 8 am. In short: if you can arrive Frisay the 15th, early evening, and leave Sunday early afternoon, you will not miss any of the scheduled events. (Folks interested in helping to coordinate the volume should contact Adele Abrahamsen. Depending on scheduling, that might require staying a bit later on Sunday.) In response to a question regarding rental cars, the hotel provides a free shuttle service, and is located near CMU, so a rental car is probably not needed.

A few people have indicated that the cost is too great to make it practical for them to attend. If anyone feels that they could come if the cost were $100 to $200 less, please contact us!

We have plans for a scrapbook and a trivia contest. This note concerns the trivia contest. We plan to have an information scavenger hunt during the reception and early part of dinner Friday. Each person will be given some trivia questions about people attending the party and will try to hunt down the answers by circulating and finding one of the few people who happens to know. Then later in the dinner, Gary Cottrell will be MC for pulling together the answers to the various questions (a lot of people don't know that Gary was a co-presenter for an afternoon at last year's Sundance Film Festival. Trivia question: why?) This will work best if just about everyone sends a few questions (or at least one question). For example: Which associate of Dave's from the PDP years was thrown out of a bar in Paris with another famous back-propper?

Two other notes concerning the event: 1) We are planning to assemble a web-based scrapbook and whether you plan to attend or not, we would like to include you in it. The exact format is not settled yet but if you can find a picture of yourself and Dave, or a picture of yourself during the period when you worked most closely with Dave, or a picture of yourself at any age, or of some family member of yours, or a quick sketch of yourself drawn by anyone who has ever seen you, that would be good. As we mentioned before, please bring any relevant photos or other mementos with you if you are coming. We will have a scanner and a digital camera so we can webify any visible material you provide. We will also be asking for some info concerning you, your collaboration with Dave, etc. We will send a more detailed note about the format in the next couple of days. 2) if you are interested in helping to prepare the planned volume, please contact Adele Abrahamsen (mailto: adele@twinearth.wustl.edu). We will have a planning meeting on Sunday the 17th after the gathering concludes.

They can be embarrassing (to someone else?), funny, astonishing, or just merely reminiscent of old times. Here's a copy of the original request, which includes an example at the end. People who send at least one trivia item may gain fabulous wealth, those who don't may suffer great cruelty... Best if received Thursday, but Friday before 11 a.m. CDT is still possible. They're needed for Friday night! (If you have a later arrival, you'll still have a chance to be informed and amused by these items in written form.) ORIGINAL REQUEST FOR TRIVIA: Whether you can join us in Pittsburgh on the 15th-17th or not, we would like your help in organizing some elements of the weekend. We have plans for a scrapbook and a trivia contest. This note concerns the trivia contest. We plan to have an information scavenger hunt during the reception and early part of dinner Friday. Each person will be given some trivia questions about people attending the party and will try to hunt down the answers by circulating and finding one of the few people who happens to know. Then later in the dinner, Gary Cottrell will be MC for pulling together the answers to the various questions (a lot of people don't know that Gary was a co-presenter for an afternoon at last year's Sundance Film Festival. Trivia question: why?) This will work best if just about everyone sends a few questions (or at least one question).

This resource allows you to enter text and also pictures. If people get a chance it would be great if some could enter material before the weekend. Although it will be possible to do this during the weekend as well, there will only be limited opportunities. The web site is: http://www.cnbc.cmu.edu/~gotts/derFest/ Some basic instructions and guidelines for entering the scrapbook info are given at the top of the web page and Steve has also included his email address if there are problems or questions. Note that you can enter text now and bring pictures with you to Pittsburgh, where we will be able to scan them; and even if you don't have any pictures, you can still fill out a page, and we can just take a picture of you during the weekend (we'll have both analog and digital cameras on hand). We're all looking forward to seeing you soon!

RUMELHART PRIZE FOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FORMAL ANALYSIS OF HUMAN COGNITION The David E. Rumelhart Prize will be awarded biennially to an individual or collaborative team making a significant contemporary contribution to the formal analysis of human cognition. Mathematical modeling of human cognitive processes, formal analysis of language and other products of human cognitive activity, and computational analyses of human cognition using symbolic or non-symbolic frameworks all fall within the scope of the award. The Prize itself will consist of a certificate, a citation of the awardee's contribution, and a monetary award of $100,000. Nomination, Selection and Award Presentation Nominations for the David E. Rumelhart Prize should be sent to the Chair of the Prize Selection Committee by December 1 of each even numbered year, beginning in the year 2000. Nominations should include six sets of the following materials: (1) A three-page statement focusing on the work motivating the nomination, (2) a complete curriculum vitae and (3) copies of up to five of the nominee's relevant publications. Note that the nominee may be an individual or a team, and in the case of a team, vitae for all members should be provided. The awardee will be announced at the meeting of the Cognitive Science Society in the year following the deadline and will receive the Prize and deliver the Prize Lecture at the meeting in the year after that. Thus, the first prize recipient will be announced at the Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society in 2001, and the first Prize Lecture will be given at the meeting of the Society in 2002. Funding of the Prize The David E, Rumelhart Prize will be funded by the Robert J. Glushko and Pamela Samuelson Foundation, based in San Francisco. Robert J. Glushko is an entrepreneur in Silicon Valley who received a Ph. D. in Cognitive Psychology in 1979 under Rumelhart's supervision. Prize Administration The Rumelhart Prize will be Administered by the Chair of the Prize Selection Committee in consultation with the Glushko-Samuelson Foundation and the Distinguished Advisory Board. Screening of nominees and selection of the prize winner will be performed by the Prize Selection Committee. Scientific members (including the Chair) of the Prize Selection Committee will serve for up to two four-year terms, and members of this committee will be selected by the Glushko-Samuelson Foundation in consultation with the Distinguished Advisory Board. A representative of the Foundation will also serve on the Prize Selection Committee. David E. Rumelhart: A Scientific Biography David E. Rumelhart has made many contributions to the formal analysis of human cognition, working primarily within the frameworks of mathematical psychology, symbolic artificial intelligence, and parallel distributed processing. He also admired formal linguistic approaches to cognition and explored the possibility of formulating a formal grammar to capture the structure of stories. Rumelhart obtained his undergraduate education at the University of South Dakota, receiving a B.A. in psychology and mathematics in 1963. He studied mathematical psychology at Stanford University, receiving his Ph. D. in 1967. From 1967 to 1987 he served on the faculty of the Department of Psychology at the University of California, San Diego. In 1987 he moved to Stanford University, serving as Professor there until 1998. He has become disabled by Pick's disease, a progressive neurodegenerative illness, and now lives with his brother in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Rumelhart developed models of a wide range of aspects of human cognition, ranging from motor control to story understanding to visual letter recognition to metaphor and analogy. He collaborated with Don Norman and the LNR Research Group to produce "Explorations in Cognition" in 1975 and with Jay McClelland and the PDP Research Group to produce "Parallel Distributed Processing: Explorations in the Microstructure of Cognition" in 1986. He mastered many formal approaches to human cognition, developing his own list processing language and formulating the powerful back-propagation learning algorithm for training networks of neuron-like processing units. Rumelhart was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1991 and received many prizes, including a MacArthur Fellowship, the Warren Medal of the Society of Experimental Psychologists, and the APA Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award. Rumelhart articulated a clear view of what cognitive science, the discipline, is or ought to be. He felt that for cognitive science to be a science, it would have to have formal theories --- and he often pointed to linguistic theories, as well as to mathematical and computational models, as examples of what he had in mind.

It's not too late; PLEASE DO IT NOW! (The Oct. 22 email message explaining how to do this either online or via smail is reproduced below.) We have 33 forms in hand, and this message is being sent to everyone else on the mailing list. I'm sure most of you just need a little nudge to get online and get it done. A few may feel their connection to Dave is too long ago or too peripheral and have chosen not to sign onto this project--that's fine too, and feel free to hit the delete key. If you were at the gathering, you'll remember what a good coming-together of people and memories it was. It was a privilege to honor and thank Dave for the inimitable role he played in cognitive science and in our individual lives. And we could be grateful that Dave was in good spirits and seemed to understand some and appreciate even more of what went on. He was very attentive to the partially-filled leather binder that we presented to him that weekend, especially recognizing and responding to photographs of people. Your photo is already in hand--please take a few minutes now to fill in at least parts of the online form so your page can be included not only on the website, but also in the completed scrapbook to be presented soon to Dave. Any additional photos or graphics would be great, but not essential. Then there's those of you who could *not* attend the October 1999 gathering. Nonetheless, there's lots of photos you can view now at http://www.cnbc.cmu.edu/~scrapbk--some taken during the event and others dug out of closets and scanned to bring back old memories. Maybe taking a look will inspire you to proceed to http://www.cnbc.cmu.edu/~gotts/derFest and add your own basic data, memories, and photos. Instructions are at the site and below. Thanks once again to CMU students Steve Gotts and Michael Erickson for their web wizardry and hard work on the scrapbook. And thanks in advance to each of you for getting your forms filled out!

Eleanor is rapidly approaching her first birthday. She some time ago graduated from cruising to walking and then to running. It is pretty scary to see her heading down the driveway -- her nose is taking a beating -- and quite extraordinary to see that soon after the blood stops flowing she is off to try again. It says something about life in the wild that this was the behavior that Darwin and Skinner favored. I think today's world might select for kids who decide to spend a month thinking about it after the first scrape. Well, I made the trip to CMU, but didn't get in touch because all of my discretionary time went into visiting my parents. Originally Gayna and Eleanor considered going in which case it would have been a longer visit. I flew into Pittsburgh on a redeye leaving here about midnight and getting there around 7 am Sunday, picked up a car and drove to Johnstown PA and met my parents who drove down from State College. It's about half way between. We spent the day and night there and at 6 am I drove to CMU, spent the day at an HCII program review, had dinner with a few of them, and drove to the airport for an 8:50 pm flight to Seattle that arrived around 11 pm Seattle time Monday. We picked Johnstown mainly because of the location. We knew vaguely about the 19th century Johnstown Flood. It turns out to be an amazing story and an excellent place to spend a day. The Flood museum downtown has an Oscar-winning documentary film and interesting slide show and the U.S. National Monument site outside town has a different film about the flood, and you can walk around, and you can take the Incline Plane and have a nice meal with a great view. If you sometimes drive east and are looking for a place to stay en route it's worth the slight detour. But the story of the flood might be a little much for the kids at this age. Very good later on though.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Status: RO X-Status: X-Keywords: X-UID: 29 Hi Gary, Caroline -- We enjoyed our brief visit very much. The only drawback to having kids is the loss of time for other things, such as seeing old friends and writing thank you notes. All went well on the way out -- again we had problems with the Interstate, the on ramp was closed and we had to wind a mile or so through town on a detour, but there was no traffic. Only Hertz and National were open as only National was open when we arrived, but by chance we were with National, and I'd make a point of going with them on Columbus trips at this point, if anyone asks you for a recommendation. We hope you can make it out here for a summer visit or for a sabbatical sometime. It sounds like you have a better school setup there than Granville, but I can honestly say that the two years I remember by far the most fondly between ages of 8 and 18 were the two years we spent on sabbatical, one in Brookline MA and one in Portland OR. Cheers -- Jonathan, Gayna, Eleanor PS. Steve and I will of course be at CSCW in Philadelphia in December if there is a chance you will be in that area...

Shiffrin Chosen to Receive the David E. Rumelhart Prize for Contributions to the Formal Analysis of Human Cognition The Glushko-Samuelson Foundation and the Cognitive Science Society are pleased to announce that Richard M. Shiffrin has been chosen as the second recipient of the $100,000 David E. Rumelhart Prize, awarded annually for an outstanding contribution to the formal analysis of human cognition. Shiffrin will receive this prize and give the Prize Lecture at the 2002 Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society, at George Mason University, August 7-11, 2002. Shiffrin has made many contributions to the modeling of human cognition in areas ranging from perception to attention to learning, but is best known for his long-standing efforts to develop explicit models of human memory. His most recent models use Bayesian, adaptive approaches, building on previous work but extending it in a critical new manner, and carrying his theory beyond explicit memory to implicit learning and memory processes. The theory has been evolving for about 35 years, and as a result represents a progression similar to the best theories seen in any branch of science. Shiffrin's major effort began in 1968, in a chapter with Atkinson [1] that laid out a model of the components of short- and long-term memory and described the processes that control the operations of memory. The Atkinson-Shiffrin model encapsulated empirical and theoretical results from a very large number of publications that modeled quantitatively the relation of short- to long-term memory. It achieved its greatest success by showing the critical importance---and the possibility---of modeling the control processes of cognition. This chapter remains one of the most cited works in the entire field of psychology. Shiffrin's formal theory was taken forward in a quantum leap in 1980 [2] and 1981 [3] with the SAM (Search of Associative Memory) model. This was a joint effort with Jeroen Raaijmakers, then a graduate student. The SAM model quantified the nature of retrieval from long-term memory, and characterized reCALL as a memory search with cycles of sampling and recovery. The SAM theory precisely incorporates the notions of interactive cue combination that are now seen to lie at the heart of memory retrieval. Another major quantum step occurred in 1984 [4] when the theory was extended to recognition memory. With another former student, Gary Gillund, Shiffrin initiated what has become the standard approach to recognition memory, in which a decision is based on summed activation of related memory traces. It was a major accomplishment that the same retrieval activations that had been used in the recall model could be carried forward and used to predict a wide range of recognition phenomena. The next major step occurred in 1990, when Shiffrin published two articles on the list-length effect with his student Steve Clark and his colleague, Roger Ratcliff [5, 6]. This research was of critical importance in that it established clearly that experience leads to the differentiation, rather than the mere stregthening, of the representations of items in memory. In 1997, the theory evolved in a radical direction in an important paper with another former student, Mark Steyvers [7]. Although the changes were fundamental, the new model retained the best concepts of its predecessors, so that the previous successful predictions were also a part of the new theory. REM added featural representations, to capture similarity relations among items in memory. Building on earlier ideas by John Anderson, and related ideas developed in parallel by McClelland and Chappell, Shiffrin used Bayesian principles of adaptive and optimal decision making under constraints to guide the selection of the quantitative form of the activation functions. In addition, storage principles were set forth that provided mechanisms by which episodic experience could coalesce over development and experience into permanent non-contextualized knowledge. This latter development allowed the modeling of implicit memory phenomena, in work that is just now starting to appear in many journals, including a theory of long-term priming [with Schooler and Raaijmakers, 8] and a theory of short-term priming [with his student David Huber and others, 9]. The short-term priming research showed that the direction of priming can be reversed by extra study given to particular primes, leading to another conceptual breakthrough. A new version of the REM model explains this and other findings by assuming that some prime features are confused with test item features, and that the system attempts to deal with this situation optimally by appropriate discounting of evidence from certain features. Biographical Information Shiffrin received his Ph. D. from the Mathematical Psychology Program in the Department of Psychology at Stanford University in 1968, the year after Rumelhart received his degree from the same program. Since 1968 he has been on the faculty of the Department of Psychology at Indiana University, where he is now the Luther Dana Waterman Professor of Psychology and Director of the Cognitive Science Program. Shiffrin has accumulated many honors, including membership in the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Howard Crosby Warren Award of the Society of Experimental Psychologists, and a MERIT Award from the National Institute of Mental Health. Shiffrin has served the field as editor of the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning Memory and Cognition, and as a member of the governing boards of several scientific societies.

Geoffrey E. Hinton Named First Recipient of the David E. Rumelhart Prize May 3, 2001 Today the Glushko-Samuelson foundation and the Cognitive Science Society jointly announced that Geoffrey E. Hinton has been named the first recipient of the David E. Rumelhart Prize for contemporary contributions to the formal analysis of human cognition. Hinton, the Director of the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at University College, London, was chosen from a large field of outstanding nominees because of his seminal contributions to the understanding of neural networks. "Hinton's insights into the analysis of neural networks played a central role in launching the field in the mid-1980's" said Professor James McClelland of Carnegie Mellon University, Chair of the Prize Selection Committee, "Geoff also played a major role in conveying the relevance of neural networks to higher-level cognition." Professor Lawrence Barsalou of Emory University, President of the Cognitive Science Society, agreed with this assessment. "Hinton's contributions to Cognitive Science have been pivotal", said Barsalou. "As the first recipient he sets a great example for future awards." Hinton will receive the prize, which includes a monetary award of $100,000, at the annual meeting of the Society in Edinburgh, Scotland, in early August, 2001. The Rumelhart prize acknowledges intellectual generosity and effective mentoring as well as scientific insight. "Dave Rumelhart gave away many scientific ideas, and made important contributions to the work of many of his students and co-workers" said Robert J. Glushko, President of the Glushko-Samuelson foundation. He added "Hinton stands out not only for his own contributions but for his exemplary record in mentoring young scientists." A total of eighteen graduate students have received their Ph. D.'s under Hinton's supervision. In conjunction with naming Hinton as the first recipient of the David E. Rumelhart Prize, the Glushko-Samuelson foundation announced that the prize will be awarded on an annual basis, instead of biennially. "This change reflects the number of outstanding scientists who were nominated for the award" noted Glushko. "I am pleased that my foundation can play a role in honoring their contributions to cognitive science." The second recipient of the Prize will be announced at the Edinburgh meeting of the society, and will give the prize lecture at the next annual meeting, which will be at George Mason University in August, 2002.

May 3, 2001
Today the Glushko-Samuelson foundation and the Cognitive Science
Society jointly announced that Geoffrey E. Hinton has been named the first
recipient of the David E. Rumelhart Prize for contemporary
contributions to the formal analysis of human cognition. Hinton, the
Director of the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at University
College, London, was chosen from a large field of outstanding nominees
because of his seminal contributions to the understanding of neural
networks.
"Hinton's insights into the analysis of neural networks played a
central role in launching the field in the mid-1980's" said Professor
James McClelland of Carnegie Mellon University, Chair of the Prize
Selection Committee, "Geoff also played a major role in conveying the
relevance of neural networks to higher-level cognition." Professor
Lawrence Barsalou of Emory University, President of the Cognitive
Science Society, agreed with this assessment. "Hinton's contributions
to Cognitive Science have been pivotal", said Barsalou. "As the first
recipient he sets a great example for future awards." Hinton will
receive the prize, which includes a monetary award of $100,000, at the
annual meeting of the Society in Edinburgh, Scotland, in early August,
2001.
The Rumelhart prize acknowledges intellectual generosity and effective
mentoring as well as scientific insight. "Dave Rumelhart gave away
many scientific ideas, and made important contributions to the work of
many of his students and co-workers" said Robert J. Glushko, President of
the Glushko-Samuelson foundation. He added "Hinton stands out not
only for his own contributions but for his exemplary record in
mentoring young scientists." A total of eighteen graduate students
have received their Ph. D.'s under Hinton's supervision.
In conjunction with naming Hinton as the first recipient of the David
E. Rumelhart Prize, the Glushko-Samuelson foundation announced that
the prize will be awarded on an annual basis, instead of biennially.
"This change reflects the number of outstanding scientists who were
nominated for the award" noted Glushko. "I am pleased that my
foundation can play a role in honoring their contributions to
cognitive science." The second recipient of the Prize will be
announced at the Edinburgh meeting of the society, and will give the
prize lecture at the next annual meeting, which will be at George
Mason University in August, 2002.
