Neurocomputation: from brains to machines

Wed, 25 Nov 2015 1:30 PM - 5:30 PM

Location
McCrum Lecture theatre, Corpus Christi College

The aim of the workshop is to advance our understanding of how biological and artificial systems solve sensory motor challenges. We will bring together speakers who work on the problems of recognition and action from diverse perspectives: cognitive neuroscience and brain imaging, computer vision and robotics. The goal is to encourage dialogue using a common language of computational techniques that allow us to extract informative signals from rich biological data and design artificial systems with practical applications.
