\n\t\tBrain-like intelligence coming closer to reality<\/p>\n


\n\tKINGSTON, R.I. \u2013 September 16, 2014 \u2013 Haibo He calls the growing field of computational intelligence \u201cone of the grand challenges of our society\u201d as engineers and computer scientists work to develop computer models that mimic how the human brain thinks. It\u2019s a discipline that the 溏心vlog免费B站 electrical engineering professor says has applications in the defense, security, robotics, computer gaming, biomedical device, and digital manufacturing industries, among many others.<\/p>\n


\n\tSeven of the world\u2019s pioneers in computational intelligence will visit the 溏心vlog免费B站 College of Engineering on Oct. 3 to discuss recent developments in the field and outline new capabilities and potential applications. The free event runs from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Memorial Union Ballroom, 50 Lower College Rd., on the 溏心vlog免费B站 Kingston campus. Registration by Sept. 29 is required.<\/p>\n


\n\u201cIf we can achieve high-level, brain-like intelligence, there would be an unlimited potential for applications that would improve our lives and make our world a better place,\u201d said He, who noted that New England is one of the epicenters of research on computational intelligence.<\/p>\n


\n\tThe speakers at the seminar are: Cesar Alippi, professor of information processing systems at the Polytechnic University of Milan, Italy; Bernadette Bouchon-Meunier, director of research at the National Center for Scientific Research at the University of Paris; Pablo Estevez, professor of electrical engineering at the University of Chile and co-founder of the Millennium Institute of Astrophysics; Yaochu Jin, chair of computational intelligence at the University of Surrey, England; Marios Polycarpou, director of the KIOS Research Center for Intelligent Systems and Networks at the University of Cyprus; Enrique Ruspini, former director of the Collaborative Intelligent Systems Laboratory at the European Center for Soft Computing in Spain; and Xin Yao, professor of computer science at the University of Birmingham, England. All hold leadership positions in the Computational Intelligence Society of the Institute for Electric and Electronic Engineers.<\/p>\n


\n\tAmong their presentation topics will be fuzzy data mining, learning in non-stationary environments, self-organization of swarm robots, big data, cognitive fault diagnosis, and astronomical time-series databases. The event will have particular relevance to those with an interest in engineering, neuroscience, computer science and psychology.<\/p>\n
