World wide VVTNS series (6th season): Carl van Vreeswijk Memorial Lecture | Wednesday, April 15, 2026, at 11:00 am ET - Physics of Optimal Transport and Schödinger Bridges| Henri Orland, IPHT, Saclay, France

by David Hansel

This is particularly useful in various domains, including physics, biology, machine learning, and economics, among others. After introducing the Optimal Transport (OT) problem at finite temperature, we show how it can be formulated as a statistical physics problem. This approach allows us to derive very efficient algorithms to effectively compute the distance between two probability distributions. The a priori unrelated Schrödinger bridge (SB) problem is presented, and it is shown to be a dynamical version of the optimal transport problem. Indeed, the Schrodinger bridge looks for the most probable path in probability distribution space, which connects two given probabilities. The Schrodinger bridge problem, originally devised for freely diffusing particles, can be generalized to the case of interacting particles. It can be formulated in terms of functional integrals over bosonic fields, which allows us to derive partial differential equations that characterize the most probable paths in probability space. *About VVTNS : Launched as the World Wide Theoretical Neuroscience Seminar (WWTNS) in November 2020 and renamed in homage to Carl van Vreeswijk in Memoriam (April 20, 2022), Speakers have the occasion to talk about theoretical aspects of their work which cannot be discussed in a setting where the majority of the audience consists of experimentalists. The seminars, **held on Wednesdays at 11 am ET,** are 45-50 min long followed by a discussion. The talks are recorded with authorization of the speaker and are available to everybody on our YouTube channel.* ᐧ ᐧ

CfP: BEACON 2026 Workshop @ ICMI – Grounding Abstract Concepts in Multimodal Interaction (Deadline: July 2, 2026)

by xhdgary＠gmail.com

Dear All, we invite submissions to the BEACON 2026 Workshop (Beyond a Concrete: Grounding Abstract Concepts in Multimodal Interaction), Co-located with ICMI 2026 Multimodal systems have made strong progress in grounding concrete concepts (e.g., objects, actions), but abstract concepts (e.g., “tool,” “use,” “good”) remain poorly understood. Grounding these concepts requires integrating perception, language, action, and context and is essential for flexible, human-like interaction. This workshop focuses on computational and interactional mechanisms for grounding abstract concepts beyond concrete sensory inputs, bringing together work on multimodal representation learning, embodied and developmental models, robotics, and hybrid cognitive architectures. The workshop aims to consolidate approaches, datasets, and evaluation strategies for abstract concept grounding, identify shared modeling assumptions, and clarify open challenges. Topics of Interest We invite submissions on topics including, but not limited to: Grounding abstract concepts in multimodal interaction Hierarchical and developmental models of abstraction Cross-modal abstraction and alignment Embodied and interactive concept learning Multimodal action and goal representations Affective and contextual abstraction Embodied and interactive learning of abstract language Hybrid cognitive architectures for abstract grounding Evaluation methodologies for abstract concept grounding Multimodal datasets and benchmarks for abstract concepts Applications of abstract grounding in HCI and HRI Submission Details Short papers (4 pages) Full Papers (8 pages) Submit via OpenReview: https://openreview.net/group?id=ICMI/2026/Workshop/BEACON All accepted and presented papers will be included in the proceedings of the ACM ICMI 2026 workshop. Important Dates Submission: July 2, 2026 Notification: July 25, 2026 Camera-ready: July 31, 2026 Workshop: October 5 or 9, 2026 Website: https://beacon2026.github.io/ We welcome contributions from the multimodal interaction, AI, robotics, and cognitive science communities.

New preprint: Consciousness as neural topology (hard problem, constitutive claim)

by arthur.stewart＠neuravexium.com arthur.stewart＠neuravexium.com

I would like to announce a new preprint on the neural substrate of consciousness. “What I Am Will Be? A Convergence A Topology of Neural Substrate, Structure, an Endomorphism: Consciousness Its Cells-Itself” Arthur Stewart (2026). Zenodo. DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19342121 https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19342121 The paper proposes that consciousness is constituted by synchronized flow across four neural loops, each operating on a distinct computational axis. The topology of the substrate (a four-node directed graph closing through endomorphism) is argued to generate the structural features philosophers associate with the hard problem: phenomenal immediacy, temporal presence, ownership, and qualitative character. These follow as consequences of the topology itself rather than requiring additional explanatory apparatus. The paper includes a systematic comparative critique of Global Neuronal Workspace, Integrated Information Theory, Thalamocortical Loop theory, and Predictive Processing/Free Energy Principle, identifying specific empirical and structural gaps in each. Eight discriminating predictions are offered that would distinguish this framework from existing accounts. The full paper is open access at the DOI above. Arthur Stewart
