Sudarshan Ramenahalli, a PhD candidate working with Professor Ernst Niebur in the Computational Neuroscience Laboratory, has been invited to be a Visiting Research Scientist at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) for the Spring semester.
“I have been invited to work on state of the art deep learning approaches for object detection, classification, and segmentation. Deep learning draws heavily on concepts from neuroscience,” says Ramenahalli.
ICSI is a UC Berkeley-affiliated institute focused on research into computer networking, speech and language processing, bioinformatics, brain networks, computer vision, audio and multimedia analysis, and artificial intelligence.
In ECE, Ramenahalli is working towards developing intelligent algorithms for audiovisual scene analysis and figure ground organization inspired by neuroscience.
