Despite current advances in artificial intelligence, many people remain convinced that machines are still far from being able to really experience, for example, the redness of a sunset, the pain of a pinprick, or what it's like to be sad. This "phenomenal" or "felt" aspect of consciousness seems outside the realm of science and impossible

The study of animal behavior is rapidly changing due to recent advances in long-term recording and automated analysis. Here we use these new developments to characterize mouse behavior via their temporal statistics. We analyzed positional data (RFID detections) of groups of mice housed in complex environments over many months. We found that behavior spanning seconds

Abstract Understanding the computational principles of embodied intelligence is central to advancing robotic systems that perceive and act in complex environments. This talk explores key principles—low power consumption, robustness, and generalizability—as they emerge in the context of motion perception and action. For visual navigation, evidence is presented that challenges the conventional SLAM paradigm, which relies

In this talk Jens Krause will discuss the adaptive value of collective behaviour from different perspectives. One perspective is the potential ability of groups or collectives to make better and even faster decisions. In this context Jens will show some of the modelling approaches to explain collective intelligence and the empirical support for them in

Martina Poletti's talk will focus on active foveal vision. Vision is an active process even at its finest scale in the 1-deg foveola, the visual system is primarily sensitive to changes in the visual input and it has been shown that fixational eye movements reformat the spatiotemporal flow to the retina in a way that
Artificial intelligence and robotics have been making great progress in recent years but how close are we to emulating human intelligence? This talk will explore the similarities and differences between humans and AIs and discuss the development of biomimetic cognitive systems that more directly think and behave like us. A key focus will be on
