Invitation
On
behalf of the program committee I would like to invite you to "SNU
Global Research Frontiership: The 4th Forum" under the theme of "Cognitive
Machines: Convergence of Biological and Physical Intelligence".
The
electromechanical performance of machines is increasing rapidly while their
cognitive performance remains primitive compared to humans and animals. The
merging of biological intelligence in humans and physical intelligence in
machines will have a tremendous impact on technology and social domains of
future generations.
Some thinkers predict the emergence of "conscious
machines", i.e. the machines who know what they are doing and read
human intentions. Others forecast the singularity point, i.e. the threshold
of epoch that will see the merging of our cognitive biology with the
staggering achievements of technology to create a species of unrecognizably
high intelligence, durability, comprehension, and memory.
The
forum consists of four technical sessions: machine cognition, augmented
cognition, cognitive robots, and cyber-physical systems. The invited
speakers in each session are the leaders in the field and will present the
frontier research in the related areas. This forum will offer an ideal
venue for interdisciplinary discussion on convergence technologies for
human-level machine cognition and machine-augmented human cognition.
We
welcome everyone who is interested in cognitive machines research and its
impact on society, from all disciplines including humanities and arts,
social sciences, biomedical sciences, physical sciences, and engineering,
to join this exciting meeting.
