Rethinking Computational Approaches to the Mind
Fundamental Challenges and Future Perspectives
One-day Online Symposium
21st October 2022
This one-day online event will bring together researchers with expertise in various areas such as complexity science, machine learning & artificial intelligence, information theory & data science, as well as computational/theoretical neuroscience & philosophy to explore different computational approaches in the study of the “mind” (in brains and/or machines):
- What are those approaches essentially about?
- What are major benefits & caveats?
- Do different approaches speak to, complement, or contradict each other?
- What are the current challenges in computational approaches to understand the mind, and what could bring progress?
The event is organized within the “Sensation and Perception to Awareness: Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarship Programme” at the Univeristy of Sussex (find more info here), and will comprise a set of talks followed by a panel discussion (see schedule).
