[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: October 18, Wednesday: Marko Nardini (Durham) - Perceptual development as optimisation of inference

by Gyorgyne Finta

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk as part of the Departmental Colloquium series By Marko Nardini (Durham University) Date: Wednesday, October 18, 2017 - 17:00 - 18:30 Host: Jozsef Fiser Perceptual development as optimisation of inference To survive, organisms must deal with many kinds of uncertainty, such as recognising objects given partial or uncertain information, or planning an action (e.g. reaching for a cup) with an uncertain outcome. Recent evidence suggests that the adult nervous system meets these challenges by implementing or approximating principles of Bayesian Decision Theory (BDT), which provides optimal solutions to problems of perception and action under uncertainty. This raises the interesting possibility that the long developmental trajectory for some perceptual skills in childhood can be understood as a process of optimisation of inference. I will present results from recent studies in support of this idea, showing that key elements of BDT are not in place until remarkably late in childhood - in perceptual tasks, motor tasks, and brain circuits. Even in quite simple tasks such as judging the layout of 3D surfaces, we see that sub-optimal computation (as distinct from noise) makes a major contribution to children's relatively low performance. These results provide a starting point for investigating the processes of development and learning by which the nervous system optimises its perception and action abilities. Progress on this problem has important future applications to atypical development, sensory / motor rehabilitation, and the design of intelligent agents who can learn from their environment.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Colloquium: September 20, Carlo Reverberi (University of Milano-Bicocca)

by Andrea Jenei

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science and the Social Mind Center cordially invites you to its talk by Carlo Reverberi<http://rc2lab.psico.unimib.it/carloreve/> (RC² Lab, Reasoning and Cognitive Control Lab, Psychology Department of the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy). <http://www.uva.nl/over-de-uva/organisatie/medewerkers/content/e/l/m.vanelk/…> Date: Wednesday, September 20, 2017 - 17:00-18:30 Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 St. 7, room 101 Representation and discovery of task features in human frontal cortex Humans can organize their thoughts and actions to achieve specific goals by building “task sets” or “mental programs” describing which are the operations, facts, goals and relations relevant in a situation. However, how the human brain represents the different and multiple types of information involved in complex task sets is not fully understood. In a series of fMRI experiments we explored the neural representation of different task features: simple stimulus-response rules, priority information, rule hierarchies, logical relations, and subtask assignment to different people. Furthermore, we explored the discovery and representation of features possibly relevant for new, yet to be implemented, rule sets. Overall, we found that the neural representation of complex rules is “compositional”, i.e. built on the neural representation of their constituent rules or features. Complex task sets are “decomposed” in their elementary features. The constituent features are then represented in different brain structures, depending on the type of information to be stored. We argue that compositionality, “decomposition” and information-guided representation are general features of prefrontal cortex functional organization. The presentation will focus specifically on three recent experiments, on the representation of the person to whom a subtask was assigned, on the representation of logical relations, and on the representation of yet-to-be used task features. We are looking forward to see you at the talk!
