Title: Continual learning, machine self-reference, and the problem of problem-awareness Abstract: Continual learning (CL) without forgetting has been a long-standing problem in machine learning with neural networks. Here I will bring a…

Title: Feedback-based motor control can guide plasticity and drive rapid learning Abstract: Animals use afferent feedback to rapidly correct ongoing movements in the presence of a perturbation. Repeated exposure to a predictable…

Title:  Insights into vision from interpreting a neuronal wiring diagram Host: Marcus Triplett Abstract:  In 2023, the FlyWire Consortium released the neuronal wiring diagram of an adult fly brain. This contains as a…

Title: How behavioral and evolutionary constraints sculpt early visual processing Abstract: Biological systems must selectively encode partial information about the environment, as dictated by the capacity constraints at work in all living…

Speaker: Mengye Ren Title: Lifelong and Human-like Learning in Foundation Models Abstract: Real-world agents, including humans, learn from online, lifelong experiences. However, today’s foundation models primarily acquire knowledge through offline, iid learning, while…
