2nd International Conference on Morphological Computation ICMC2011
The conference will be broadly interdisciplinary, including discussions in the area of robotics, frameworks for computation (reservoir computing, neural networks, computation based on spatio-temporal dynamics), chemistry and molecular biology (micro-patterning with biological polymers, interacting self-assembled micro-structures), and material science (intelligent micro materials, complex physical materials, complex surface patterning).
This event will begin on the 12th Sep 2011 and end on the 14th Sep 2011
Participants will be able to identify key open questions and key principles that can be generalized to other contexts, obtaining overview of cutting-edge research in different fields.
