ハインリッヒステファン, Ph.D. – 認知発達ロボティクス研究室

	東京大学国際高等研究所ニューロインテリジェンス国際研究機構特任研究員 Email: heinrich.stefan [AT] ircn.jp (B826 6798 4472 ACA0 4986 DF89 3F7E 078F 1EF0 7893) My research interest is located in between artificial intelligence, cognitive psychology, and computational neuroscience. In my research I aim to explore the computational principles in the brain to foster our fundamental understanding of the brain’s mechanisms but also to exploit them in developing intelligent systems. In particular, I look into the processes in the brain that form representations in multi-modal integration up to in acquisition of complex cognitive functions. As a central approach I model artificial neural networks, specifically continuous time recurrent neural networks (CTRNNs) and convolution neural networks (CNNs) on tasks in machine learning, natural language processing, and developmental robotics. A particular current focus is on dynamic timescales mechanisms in networks as well as on variational and approximate Bayesian learning schemes. personal page
