Autumn School - Neuronal Dynamics for Cognitive Robotics, 24.09 - 01.10.2010
Neuronal dynamics provides a powerful theoretical language with which embodied and situated cognitive systems can be designed and modeled. This summer school will provides a hands-on and down-to-earth introduction to neuronal dynamics ideas and will enable participants to become productive within this framework.
To be held at the "Institut für Neuroinformatik", Ruhr-Universität, Bochum on 24th September -- 1st October 2010
Scope
This autumn school gives a hands-on introduction to neuronal dynamics ideas and will enable participants to become productive within this framework. Participants will develop and implement small experimental projects on their own to establish a link to their research interest
Topics
Neural attractor dynamics, Dynamic Field Theory, neuronal representations, navigation behavior, artificial perception, learning mechanisms, implementation issues.
To apply, please send a CV and a short cover letter with background and motivation to gregor.schoener@rub.de by July 31, 2010
