Course Description

Overview

Explore the fascinating intersection of computational neuroscience and human cognition in this thought-provoking 34-minute conference talk from Strange Loop. Delve into intriguing questions about self-tickling, spatial awareness, and the peculiarities of DeepDream images. Examine why experts sometimes struggle to accept new advances in their field and investigate the recurring nature of trauma. Gain valuable insights into these complex topics through the lens of computational models and machine learning. Discover how these models can shed light on our own cognitive processes and potentially help us reshape our understanding of human consciousness. Join speaker Ashi Krishnan as they guide you through concepts such as hallucinations, visual processing in the brain, optical illusions, and the creation of artificial celebrity images. Learn about neurocognitive precedent and efference, expanding your knowledge of how the brain interprets and interacts with the world around us.
