MINI-SYMPOSIUM
2016/03/17 3rd Mini-Symposium on Computations, Brains and Machines
The series of this mini-symposium is intended to discuss better computations and greater mathematical principles in a wider perspective, not only in theoretical neuroscience but also in machine learning and statistical-information sciences. Brain does amazingly efficient computation over big and complex information, while neuroscience itself often requires to analyze such data, to address mysteries of brain. Four eminent speakers will introduce us to cutting-edge works to face such challenges in their own disciplines.
| Dr. Yoshimasa Tsuruoka | The University of Tokyo |
| Dr. Mahito Sugiyama | Osaka University |
| Dr. Makoto Yokoo | Kyushu University |
| Dr. Tetsuya Ogata | Waseda University |
2015/07/14 2nd Mini-Symposium on Computations, Brains and Machines
The series of this mini-symposium is intended to discuss better computations and greater mathematical principles in a wider perspective, not only in theoretical neuroscience but also in machine learning and statistical-information sciences. Brain does amazing computations, processing big and complex information superbly, while neuroscience itself nowadays often needs to analyze big data. In this symposium, three eminent speakers will introduce us to cutting-edge works to face such challenges in other disciplines.
| Dr. Takayuki Okatani | Tohoku University |
| Dr. Ken-ichi Kawarabayashi | National Institute of Informatics&JST |
| Dr. Takemasa Miyoshi | RIKEN |
