4G3 course -- repeats every Wed at 12noon, and Fri at 11am during Lent

This is the computational neuroscience module taught by Máté Lengyel, Henning Sprekeler, David Barrett, Richard Turner (Engineering), and Simon Laughlin (Zoology). The main audience is 4th year (MEng) students in Engineering, PhD students, and others interested in learning about computational neuroscience.

The course demonstrates how mathematical analysis and ideas from engineering-related disciplines (dynamical systems, signal processing, machine learning, optimal control, and probabilistic inference) can be applied to gain insight into the workings of the nervous system. Knowledge of basic mathematical concepts is assumed.

Topics covered include neural coding, neural networks, plasticity, associative memory, efficient coding, supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, energy efficiency, and optimal control.
