Information for international students
The seminar is in English.
General
The topic of the seminar this year is
Social interaction in agents and humans
We will try to understand the mechanisms and phenomena related to social interaction by considering agent-based models on the one hand, and neuroscientific experiments and theories on the other.
The seminar is meant for Master's and PhD students in computer science, neuroscience and related disciplines.
Completing the course
To get the credit points, you are supposed to
- Participate in all the sessions of the seminar. One absence is OK, more than one if you have a very good reason.
- Give a talk based on given material, typically a scientific article. Who gets what will be decided in the first seminar session.
- Write, in the end, a short report on what you learned at the seminar (something like 10 lines per presentation). DEADLINE: 11th May.
There is no overlap with the previous neuroinformatics seminars, so you can do this seminar every year.
