MAIN Meeting 2022 – Maths, AI and Neuroscience
To understand brain function and develop artificial general intelligence, it has become abundantly clear that there should be a close interaction between Neuroscience, machine learning and mathematics. There is a general hope that understanding brain function will provide us with more powerful machine-learning algorithms. On the other hand, advances in machine learning are now providing the much-needed tools to not only analyse brain activity data but also to design better experiments to expose brain function. Both neuroscience and machine learning explicitly or implicitly deal with high-dimensional data and systems. Mathematics can provide powerful new tools to understand and quantify the dynamics of biological and artificial systems as they generate behaviour that may be perceived as intelligent.

In this second meeting, we bring together experts from Mathematics, Artificial Intelligence and Neuroscience for a two-day-long hybrid meeting. We will have talks on neural coding, neuromodulation and learning in both artificial and neural systems.
