Abstract: Bees have a diverse instinctual repertoire that exceeds in complexity that of most vertebrates. This repertoire allows the social organisation of such feats as the construction of precisely hexagonal
Abstract: Some of my past and current research looks at "decisions from experience,” i.e., decisions based on the personally experienced outcomes of past choices, along the lines of reinforcement learning
Estimates from large-scale replication projects in psychology suggest that the majority of studies from top journals do not replicate. Using commonly accepted research methods, several academic fields amassed prolific, seemingly coherent literatures
What's on a mouse's mind? Behavioral measures to understand experiences and needs of an animal Lars Lewejohann, Freie Universität Berlin, German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), German Centre for
Abstract: The fields of neuroscience and AI have a long and intertwined history. From the study of simple and complex cells in visual areas of the brain to the recent success
"Harnessing machine learning to model biological systems" Abstract: Classically, models of biological systems follow two different approaches. In bottom-up approaches, biological data are used to constrain a phenomenological model of
In this presentation, I will report on the results of my work so far on the concept of intelligence, summarising some of the main points and proposals made, and opening
Abstract: Self-supervised learning (SSL) consists in training neural network systems without using any human annotations. Typically, neural networks require large amounts of annotated data, which have limited their applications in
Abstract Machine learning models have achieved stunning successes in the IID setting. Yet, beyond this setting, existing models still suffer from two grand challenges: brittle under covariate shift and inefficient
One fundamental difference between human and non-human animals is the ability of humans to instantaneously implement instructed behaviour. While other animals acquire new behaviour via effortful trial-and-error learning or extensive
Abstract: What is perception? The most intuitive and influential answer to this question has long been the one given by David Marr: To see the world is “to know what
Abstract: The brain performs critical calculations on visual information as we swiftly, yet effortlessly, navigate around objects and obstacles in our cluttered environment. Perhaps one of the most important calculations
