Colloquium: Learning and Memory

We will discuss the latest research results in learning and memory at the systems level. Each session will be based on a journal article or unpublished results. These will be presented by one participants and discussed by all. The topics will include a diverse set of approaches: electrophysiology, imaging, computational modeling, and robotics. They will be selected particularly in the areas of spatial and episodic memory with a focus on the functional role of the mamalian hippocampus.

About the INI

The Institut für Neuroinformatik (INI) is a research unit of the Faculty of Computer Science at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum. Its scientific goal is to understand the fundamental principles through which organisms generate behavior and cognition while linked to their environments through sensory and effector systems. Inspired by our insights into such natural cognitive systems, we seek new solutions to problems of information processing in artificial cognitive systems. We draw from a variety of disciplines that include experimental psychology and neurophysiology as well as machine learning, neural artificial intelligence, computer vision, and robotics.
