WaterCooler NeuroscienceTeaching AI to see with Nikolaus KriegeskorteEven simple phones can tell if they are looking at a face or at least a photo of a face, and that is thanks to developments in teaching AI how to understand the makeup of a human face. This technology however originated in labs as researchers tried to use the enormous data processing capabilities of AI to understand how humans see faces. In this episode, we talk with Nikolaus Kriegeskorte about how his labs use AI to study the many different ways we see images. We also learn about how AI competition works, many AI can be made to do...2021-07-1254 minWaterCooler NeuroscienceTeaching AI to see with Nikolaus Kriegeskorte2021-07-0854 min
WaterCooler NeuroscienceAI on psychedelics with Dr Nikolaus KriegeskorteArtificial intelligence is used regularly in neuroscientist with programs that are able to process enormous amounts of data and alter their own parameters to 'learn'. AI is even used to identify different objects just through a camera and the applications of visual identification are becoming mainstream with the use of such programs in self-driving cars. The question is how do we pick between AI that seem to work equally at first pass. Well the answer is we show them psychedelic images. To find out why that would ever work tune into this episode of Think Fast.

Straight from a Scientist Medical Research Education and Discussion PodcastEp. 27: Free and Open Science: Reworking peer review and null results with Sander van BreeScience isn't perfect and one of it's biggest problems revolves around the publishing process, by which scientists share their findings with the public after peer review. However, this sharing can be quite limited in both what is shared and who gets to see it. Open access science, shared publicly, can enhance the discovery process, but implementing open access can be difficult. We talk about new systems that could accommodate open access publishing, revamped peer review, and even the publishing of null results. Null results in science are often shelved for decades, unseen by those who could use the information to a...2018-06-181h 03

Auf dem Weg zu einem neuen Modell wissenschaftlichen Publizierens und Forschens
Nikolaus Kriegeskorte
Das klassische Modell des wissenschaftlichen Publikationsprozesses ist in die Jahre gekommen. Die Rahmenbedingungen, die die heutige Struktur hervorgebracht haben, verlieren immer mehr an Bedeutung oder sind bereits komplett weggefallen. Zudem schicken sich mit Open Access und Open Science Konzepte an, neue Blaupausen für die Wissenschaft in der Zukunft zu liefern.
Wir sprechen mit Nikolaus Kriegeskorte, der sich im Rahmen seiner Forschertätigkeit am Forschungsstandort der "Brain and Cognition Unit" des MRC in Cambridge, England, nicht nur mit de...2015-08-101h 52
