Kevin
Warwick
(https://www.cyber.rdg.ac.uk/people/K.Warwick.htm)
Professor of Cybernetics, Department of Cyernetics,
School of Systems and Engineering, University of
Reading, UK. Kw@cyber.rdg.ac.uk
Topic: Control of a Robot Hand, and
Other Applications, Using Neural Signals Obtained
through an Implant.
Dr.
Warwick is internationally known for his cutting-edge
research in artificial intelligence, control and
robotics. In 1998 he shocked the scientific world
by having a silicon chip transponder surgically
implanted in his arm. A series of further implant
experiments have taken place in which his nervous
system was linked to a computer and to other humans.
Dr. Warwick has been featured in numerous scientific
journals, news magazines, and television shows.
Daniel Bullock
(https://cns-web.bu.edu/Profiles/Bullock.html)
Associate Professor, Cognitive
and Neural Systems Department and Psychology Department,
Boston University, USA. Danb@cns.bu.edu
Topic:
From
Parallel Sequence Representations to Calligraphic
Control.
Dr.
Bullock’s research is focused on sensory-motor
performance, learning, voluntary control of action,
as well as serial order and timing. His work includes
a neural network model of cursive script and a network
model of timed response learning in the cerebellum.
Dr. Bullock also has numerous publications in the
area of cognitive development.
Stephen Grossberg
(https://cns-web.bu.edu/Profiles/Grossberg.html)
Wang Professor of Cognitive and Neural Systems;
Professor of Mathematics, Psychology, and Biomedical
Engineering; Director of the Center for Adaptive
Systems; Chairman of the Department of Cognitive
and Neural Systems; Boston University, USA. Steve@bu.edu
Topic:
How
Do Children Learn to Write? Modeling the Link from
Brain Dynamics to Complex Sensory-Motor Control.
Dr.
Grossberg is one of the founders of the field of
neural networks. Assuming behavioral mechanisms
may be viewed as emergent properties of real-time
brain mechanisms, Dr. Grossberg’s research
is on developing models that are capable of adapting
to increasingly complex environments. Dr. Grossberg
has published numerous articles and reviews in prestigious
scientific journals.
