General-purpose Computation Using Neurons, Precise Timing, Delays, and Synchrony
Tuesday | November 3 | 12:30pm-1:30pm San Diego Supercomputer Center, East Annex South Wing, Level B1, EB-129
Ryad Benosman, Vision and Natural Computation Group, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale, Paris, France. There has been significant research over the past two decades in developing new platforms for spiking neural computation. Current neural computers are primarily developed to mimic biology.This work proposes a new framework for such a machine. We show that the use of neuron-like units with precise timing representation, synaptic diversity, and temporal delays allows us to set a complete, scalable compact computation framework.

Beyond Steering in Human-centered Closed-loop Control
Thursday | November 5 | 12:30pm-1:30pm San Diego Supercomputer Center, East Annex South Wing, Level B1, EB-129
Lewis Chuang, Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics. Machines provide us with the capacity to achieve goals beyond our physical limitations. For example, automobiles and aircraft extend our physical mobility, allowing us to travel vast distances far ahead of the time it would take us otherwise. In this talk, I will first explain how the limitations of a classical cybernetics approach can reveal the necessity of understanding high-level cognition during control, such as anticipation and expertise. Next, I will present our research that relies on unobtrusive measurement techniques (i.e., gaze-tracking, EEG/ERP) to understand how human operators seek out and process relevant information whilst steering. Finally, I will briefly present some efforts in modeling an augmented aerial vehicle (e.g., civil helicopters), with the goal of making flying a rotorcraft as easy as driving. View more info
