CNI Seminar: Matthew Schaff

December 11, 2018
11:30 AM - 1:00 PM

Matthew Schaff Department of Neuroscience University of Pennsylvania   Pairwise correlations in macaque auditory cortex predict multi-neuronal firing patterns   Our understanding of the function of the auditory cortex derives almost exclusively from experiments that study the coding properties of single neurons. Although these studies have shed important information, they are limited because they have […]

CNI seminar: Josh Merel

Josh Merel DeepMind   Learning to generate humanoid motor behavior   In recent years, advances in reinforcement learning have made it increasingly possible to learn to solve complex tasks in a variety of domains. Our recent work mostly focuses on motor control for simulated bodies, with an aim towards building systems capable of generating flexible, […]

Yoichiro Mori School of Mathematics University of Minnesota   Location: Tedori Family Auditorium, Levin Building   Cell volume control and osmosis-driven cell movement   Electrolyte and cell volume regulation is essential in physiological systems. Biophysical modeling in this area, however, has been relatively sparse. After a brief introduction to cell volume control and electrophysiology, I will […]
