UTS Tech Festival: How to Bridge the gap between Neuroscience & Computational Intelligence for BCI with Google TensorFlow ?

We are pleased to invite you to the hands-on workshop on how to bridge the gap between Neuroscience and Computational Intelligence to design and develop Brain-Computer Interface. This workshop intends to promote standardization of terminologies and technologies for Brain-Computer Interfaces to computational intelligence practitioners and Neuroscience communities. The workshop promotes the utilization of open-source tools such as Google TensorFlow for enhancing community cohesion and BCI standardization.

The details of the event are as follows:

What:

• Lots of Brain Computer Interface, Code, Models and Hand-on demonstrations with Neurophysiological devices
• Coffee, Snacks and Lunch
• Talks from experts including Google TensorFlow

When:

Wednesday, June 22th 2022 from 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM 

Where:

Room 401, Level 0, Building 11, University of Tehnology Sydney

Who:

• BCI Researchers/Students of all stages (graduate, Ph.D., postdocs, faculties) from the Neuroscience and Computational Intelligence community
• Industry Partners
• Research Partners
• Anyone else who want to learn
