Connectionists: Workshop on Brain-Machine Interfaces

[Justin Sanchez]

Dear colleagues:

 

We would like to invite you to attend a Workshop on Brain-Machine Interfaces
to be held at the International Joint Conference on Neural Networks 2007.
The workshop titled Innovation in Computational Approaches for Brain-Machine
Interfaces will take place on Friday, Aug. 17, 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM in
Orlando, Florida. The list of topics to be discussed includes:
            - Control feature extraction from spikes, LFPs, ECoG, and EEG
            - Data compression and representation of neural activity
            - Optimization of input-output models for mapping neural
activity to behavior
            - Computing with spikes

       - Strategies for dealing with nonstationarities in real BMI
applications

       - Techniques to analyze the spatio-temporal processes that activate
behavior

 

The program consists of nine speakers from leading laboratories in the
field. Details can be found on the workshop website
(http://nrg.mbi.ufl.edu/workshops/IJCNN2007BMI/index.htm ) or in the program
attached.
