Daniel Wood - "Understanding the neocortex for the design of machine intelligence"
Date and Time: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 from 12:00pm until 1:00pm MST

Description: "Understanding the neocortex: prerequisite for the design of the ultimate artificial neural network" and follow-up discussion of last week's presentation. While artificial intelligence (AI) uses computational algorithms to solve complex problems, neural networks are dynamic systems that can solve complex problems through analysis and synthesis (bringing together) of acquired knowledge. Computer scientists can design artificial neural networks without modeling them upon a deep understanding of biological neural networks, but the next leap in artificial neural networks could come from an understanding of the human neocortex.
