ICLR 2021 - Workshop on "How Can Findings About The Brain Improve AI Systems?"

Submission deadline: extended to March 5, 2021

Workshop website: https://iclrbrain2ai.github.io/ 

Contact: brain2ai.2021@gmail.com

We will consider the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics for contribution:

• Integration of neuroscientific data at different granularities (neural recordings, neuroimaging etc.) to train AI systems

• Brain-inspired inductive biases and ML architectures for AI systems

• Neuroscientific data as an evaluation metric for AI systems

• Mechanistic insight into cognitive functions (vision, language, decision making, attention, etc.)

• Limitations of current AI systems in tasks at which humans excel (compositionality, commonsense reasoning, continual learning, few-shot learning, causality, etc.)

• Cross-modality and cross-species comparisons of neuroscientific data with respect to benefits to AI

• Datasets that can facilitate the transfer of neuroscientific insight to AI
