Program:
Computational approaches to neuroscience have produced important advances in our understanding of neural processing. Prominent successes have come in areas where strong inputs from neurobiological, behavioral and computational approaches can interact. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on experience with a computer laboratory, this intensive course will examine several areas, including feature extraction, motion analysis, binocular stereopsis, color vision, higher level visual processing, visual neural networks, and oculomotor function. The theme is that an understanding of the computational problems, the constraints on solutions to these problems, and the range of possible solutions can help guide research in neuroscience. Students should have experience in neurobiological or computational approaches to visual processing. Some background in mathematics will be beneficial.
