Credits [Get the Plug-in]

The credit goes first and foremost to the scientists whose papers are published in this collection.

Yann LeCun initiated the NIPS Online project, produced the collection, compressed the files and designed the web site.

Michael Jordan and Sara Solla pushed the idea of the project through the NIPS foundation and negociated the rights with MIT Press, and Morgan Kaufmann. Barak Pearlmutter was instrumental in convincing Springer to let us publish volume 0.

MIT Press, and its Executive Editor for Computer Science, Robert Prior, kindly allowed us to distribute the full content of Volumes 7-12 on this web site.

Morgan-Kaufmann who kindly allowed us to distribute the full content of Volumes 1-6 on this web site.

Springer-Verlag who kindly allowed us to distribute the full content of Volumes 0 on this web site.

MIT Press and Robert Prior will distribute a CD-ROM version of this collection entitled:
Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems,
Proceedings of the 12 NIPS Conferences 1988-1999
edited by Michael I. Jordan, Yann LeCun, and Sara A. Solla

AT&T Labs-Research hosts this server and supported this project.

Root Technologies scanned the material and produced the tables of contents.

The NIPS foundation and its president, Terry Sejnowski, funded the scanning project.

Jeffery Triggs put together the search capability

LizardTech Inc. provided the latest DjVu plug-ins and DjVu software.

Larry Jackel, Yann LeCun, and Mike Hasselmo donated NIPS books for scanning.

Before that, DjVu had to be produced:

The DjVu Research Team lead by Yann LeCun at AT&T Labs produced the compression technology: Leon Bottou, Patrick Haffner, Paul Howard, Yoshua Bengio, Pascal Vincent. Leon Bottou (with help from Andrew Erofeev and later from Bill Riemers) wrote the DjVu Reference Library, now distributed by LizardTech under the GNU General Public License.

The DjVu Development Team lead by Joe Orost at AT&T Labs produced the compression software: Bill Riemers Praveen Guduru, Andrew Erofeev, and many others.

Bill Riemers and his colleagues at LizardTech then produced the latest versions of the compressors and plugins.
