SUMMARY:Berlin Science Week Talk\, Fritz Francisco: Why Behaviour? Why We Behave the Way We Do
DESCRIPTION:From French photographers\, Austrian naturalists and English adventurers – all have been equally fascinated by the way we are affected by\, and interact with our surroundings. It is the intricate interplay between self and others\, known and unknown\, present and future that makes behaviour so hard to grasp and exciting to study. Ethology\, the study of animal behaviour tackled this for ages. However\, it has recently undergone a change\, with digital assistance\, such as cameras\, as well as computers and their algorithms. Yet\, the underlying object of interest – behaviour – has not changed! Fritz Francisco will discuss what behaviour actually is and wish to make us see our own behaviour in a slightly different light. \nPlease register on the BSW website here

SUMMARY:Berlin Science Week Talk\, Ralf Kurvers and Pawel Romanczuk: Collective Intelligence or Collective Stupidity? From Fish Schools to Human Groups. Exploring swarm intelligence in fish and humans
DESCRIPTION:Scientists Pawel Romanczuk and Ralf Kurvers will explore swarm intelligence in fish and humans\, investigating the role of single individuals and social interactions in collective decisions\, also exploring when collectives make good decisions\, and when they go wrong. \nIn this talk\, David Bierbach will present results from fascinating experiments with a clonal fish\, the Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa)\, to test whether near-identical rearing conditions can dampen individual differences in behavior. In sharp contrast to predictions\, researchers found substantial individual variation in behavior among genetically identical individuals raised under highly standardized environments. \nBut how does this individuality allow swarms\, herds and shoals of animals to perform highly coordinated collective behaviors like synchronized movements or rapid consensus decision-making? Using a robotic fish\, Bierbach and his team also explored the effects of individual differences in behavior on collective movement\, migration and the emergence of group-specific behavioral patterns\, and showed that individual behavior plays a crucial role in shaping collective patterns\, with some animal personalities having greater impact on the group’s performance than others. \nWatch the interview of David Bierbach for the BSW here. \nPlease register on the BSW website here

SUMMARY:Berlin Science Week Talk\, David Bierbach: Just Be Yourself! How Individual Differences Shape Collective Behavior. Using a Robotic Fish To Understand Collective Behavior
DESCRIPTION:Do genetically identical individuals living in the same environment develop identical behaviors? And what role does individuality play in shaping the collective behavior of a flock of birds or a school of fish? \nIn this talk\, David Bierbach will present results from fascinating experiments with a clonal fish\, the Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa)\, to test whether near-identical rearing conditions can dampen individual differences in behavior. In sharp contrast to predictions\, researchers found substantial individual variation in behavior among genetically identical individuals raised under highly standardized environments. \nBut how does this individuality allow swarms\, herds and shoals of animals to perform highly coordinated collective behaviors like synchronized movements or rapid consensus decision-making? Using a robotic fish\, Bierbach and his team also explored the effects of individual differences in behavior on collective movement\, migration and the emergence of group-specific behavioral patterns\, and showed that individual behavior plays a crucial role in shaping collective patterns\, with some animal personalities having greater impact on the group’s performance than others. \nWatch the interview of David Bierbach for the BSW here \nPlease register on the BSW website here

SUMMARY:Berlin Science Week Talk\, Guillermo Gallego: Giving Robots T-Rex-Inspired Eyes
DESCRIPTION:Ever heard of neuromorphic cameras? They are bio-inspired sensors that mimic the transient visual pathway. These cameras do not acquire pictures or full images as a normal video camera. Instead\, they sense only intensity changes at every pixel as they occur with microsecond resolution (called “events” or “spikes”). These cameras offer many advantages compared to traditional image-based cameras\, such as high speed\, a very high dynamic range\, and low power consumption\, and are slowly finding their way into computer vision and robotics applications. Come to learn more about these novel cameras! \nPlease register on the BSW website here

SUMMARY:Talk: Manuel Cebrian\, Max-Planck Institute for Human Development: "Time-critical Social Mobilization"
DESCRIPTION:Title: Time-Critical Social Mobilization \nAbstract: This seminar explores the physical\, behavioral\, and computational limits of crowd-assembly for problem-solving. I follow several real-world experiments where we utilized social media to mobilize the\nmasses in tasks of unprecedented complexity. From finding red weather balloons to locating thieves in distant cities to reconstructing shredded classified documents\, the potential of crowdsourcing is real\, but so are exploitation\, sabotage\, and asymmetric incentives that can undermine the power of crowds. \nBio: Manuel Cebrian is a Max Planck Research Group Leader with the Max Planck Institute for Human Development\, where he develops computational and network preparedness against emergent threats. Previously\, Manuel was a researcher at MIT\, CSIRO\, and the University of California San Diego. His scientific research draws on approaches from the physics of complex systems\, data-driven simulation\, and operations research. \nThe Zoom Link will be sent the day before the lecture.

SUMMARY:LNDW 2021: David Bierbach\, "ROBOFISH: Mit einem Fischroboter das Schwarmverhalten verstehen"
DESCRIPTION:ROBOFISH: Mit einem Fischroboter das Schwarmverhalten verstehen (in German\, at 6:30pm and at 9:30pm)\n \nUm das Gruppenverhalten von Fischen zu studieren\, haben wir unter Beteiligung der FU\, HU und TU sowie des Leibniz-Instituts für Gewässerökologie und Binnenfischerei (IGB) einen Roboterfisch gebaut. Dieser ist einem Guppy nachempfunden und wird von lebenden Guppys als Artgenosse akzeptiert. Mit dem Roboter ist es nun möglich\, ein Leittier in eine Guppy-Gruppe „einzuschleusen” und gezielt zu steuern. Dank einer weltweit einzigartigen\, doppelten Videoaufnahmetechnik kann der Roboter in der Gruppe stets lokalisiert werden. Er kann nicht nur über die Tastatur gesteuert werden\, sondern nutzt die Positionsinformation der lebenden Fische\, um seine Schwimmrichtung automatisch anzupassen – verhält sich also interaktiv\, ähnlich wie ein lebender Guppy.
 Dr. David Bierbach\, Mitarbeiter der HU und Mitglied im Excellence-Cluster „Science of Intelligence“ (www.scienceofintelligence.de) wird in einem spannenden 30-minuten Vortrag den Robofish leicht verständlich für alle Altersgruppen präsentieren. Der Vortrag findet zweimal statt\, um 18:30 und um 21:30.\nThe Zoom Link for this talk will be available on 5 June on this page\, so stay tuned!

SUMMARY:SCIoI at Girls' Day/Mädchen-Zukunftstag: Meet a Vision Scientist - Einblicke in die Wahrnehmungsforschung (Lynn Schmittwilken)
DESCRIPTION:Girls’ Day/Mädchen-Zukunftstag\, happening digitally on 22 April\, provides school girls around Germany with a day of informative activities aimed at guiding them in their career choices\, focusing on career paths where women are usually underrepresented. SCIoI member Lynn Schmittwilken talks to school-aged girls about being a vision scientist.\nThe event is in German. \n“In unserer Veranstaltung möchte ich euch persönliche Einblicke in meine Arbeit als visuelle Wahrnehmungsforscherin geben. Für viele von uns ist das Sehen einer der wichtigsten Sinne\, um uns im Alltag zurechtzufinden. Wie allerdings die optischen Informationen in unserer Umwelt über unsere Augen ins Gehirn gelangen und dabei zu unserem sehr lebendigen Abbild der Umwelt führen\, ist auch in der Wissenschaft noch immer ein ungelöstes Mysterium. Um diese Frage zu beantworten\, greifen einige Wahrnehmungsforscher*innen auf optische Täuschungen zurück. In unserer Veranstaltung werden wir uns deshalb gemeinsam eine Reihe von optischen Täuschungen anschauen\, die für meine Arbeit interessant sind. Dabei werden wir erörtern\, warum optische Täuschungen für die Wahrnehmungsforschung interessant sind und inwiefern sie uns Einblicke in das visuelle System geben. Darüber hinaus freue ich mich darauf\, mich mit euch darüber auszutauschen\, wie man eine Wahrnehmungsforscherin werden kann und wie mein Arbeitsalltag als Wahrnehmungsforscherin aussieht.” \nInterested school-aged girls should register here. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Berlin Science Week Talk: Marc Toussant (SCIoI)\, How AI Research Makes us Rethink our Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:The more we learn about AI\, the more we may wonder what this tells us about our own intelligence. \nAs part of the “6 o’clock with SCIoI” series of talks within the Berlin Science Week\, Marc Toussaint will talk about how AI research often raises interesting questions about our own human intelligence. \nThe more AI research aims to understand notions such as rationality\, thinking fast & slow\, learning\, as well as\ncreativity and explainability\, the more we may wonder what this tells us about ourselves. In what sense do we actually make decisions? Are we optimal or rational? Are we creative? And why should we care to think? \nWhile AI research might not provide the answers\, this talk will discuss how concrete findings of AI research make us rethink such questions. The talk is followed by a discussion session with the audience. \nPlease visit the Berlin Science Week website to access the event.\nhttps://falling-walls.com/event/how-ai-research-makes-us-rethink-our-intelligence/
