Res.9-003 Brains, Minds and Machines

Res.9-003 Brains, Minds and Machines (Summer 2015, MIT OCW). Instructors: Prof. Tomaso Poggio (Course Director, MIT) and Prof. Gabriel Kreiman (Course Director, Harvard). This course explores the problem of intelligence - its nature, how it is produced by the brain and how it could be replicated in machines - using an approach that integrates cognitive science, which studies the mind; neuroscience, which studies the brain; and computer science and artificial intelligence, which study the computations needed to develop intelligent machines.

Lecture 37 - Panel - Vision and Audition

Instructors: Josh Tenenbaum, Hynek Hermansky, Josh McDermott, Gabriel Kreiman, and Dan Yamins. Panelists discuss developments in the fields of vision and audition, comparing and contrasting the nature of the two modalities and computational and experimental research methods used to study them, and exploiting similarities to advance this research.
