DESCRIPTION
This course aims at providing an interdisciplinary view of intelligence, combining fundamental concepts of brain science, artificial intelligence and complex systems. These concepts will be approached from an intuitive, rather than a rigorous, level, and will be used practically in a course project. The goal is to bring together a balanced mix of students from sciences, engineering and the humanities, who will support each other with their respective backgrounds in our quest to understanding the minimal requirements of a brain.
