Title: Searching for symmetries in connectome data Abstract: I will talk about work with Haozhe Shan on identifying structure in connectome data that suggests a cell type encodes one or…

Title: Neuromorphic Computing and the Significance of Medium Dependence   Abstract: The increasingly prohibitive cost of energy demanded by large artificial neural networks (ANNs) is giving new impetus to research and…

Title: Building foundation models for neuroscience Abstract: Current methodologies for recording brain activity often provide narrow views of the brain's function. This fragmentation of datasets has hampered the development of…

Title: Mapping bioelectrical signals, from dendrites to circuits Abstract: Neuronal dendrites are excitable, but what are these excitations for?  Are dendritic excitations involved in integration?  Or in mediating back-propagation?  What are…

Title: Disentangling the Roles of Distinct Cell Classes with Cell-Type Dynamical Systems   Abstract: Latent dynamical systems have been widely used to characterize the dynamics of neural population activity in the…

Title: Discovering Symbolic Cognitive Models from Human and Animal Behavior with CogFunSearch Abstract: A key goal of cognitive science is to discover mathematical models that describe how the brain implements cognitive processes.…

Title: Brain-like learning with exponentiated gradients and Learning to live with Dale’s principle: ANNs with separate excitatory and inhibitory units Meeting Summary: Our focus will be on answering the following…

From: Tom Zollo In Y2, the aim is to use this working group as a launchpad for a larger ARNI continual learning project (which we hope to spawn multiple subprojects and papers). …

Title: Control when confidence is costly Abstract: We develop a version of stochastic control that accounts for computational costs of inference. Past studies identified efficient coding without control, or efficient…
