-    and integrate feature items to group them into perceptual units
-    segregating them from other objects and the background. A
-    framework is discussed which explains how perceptual grouping at
-    early as well as higher-level cognitive stages may be implemented
-    in cortex. Different grouping mechanisms are implemented which are
-    attuned to basic features and feature combinations and mainly
-    evaluated along the forward sweep of stimulus processing. However,
-    due to limitations of local feature detection mechanisms and
-    inherent ambiguities, top-down feedback is required to deliver
-    contextual information helping to disambiguate initial
-    measurements. Feedback of contextual information is demonstrated
-    to improve object recognition performance, stabilize learning of
-    object categories, and integrate multi-sensory representations.
-    The canonical principles of neural computation define a set of
-    core operations to implement above-mentioned mechanisms of
-    perceptual and cognitive inference. These operations can be
-    mapped, in a simplified form, onto neuromorphic platforms to
-    emulate brain-like computation. It is demonstrated that an
-    architecture composed of canonical circuit mechanisms can be
-    mapped onto neuromorphic chip technology facilitating low-energy
-    non-von Neumann computation.</blockquote></td></tr><tr valign="top"><td>2019-11-26</td><td>IIS guest <span style="font-weight:bold">Tamim Asfour</span>, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology,  gives an invited keynote <i>Engineering Humanoids with Motion Intelligence</i> at <a href="https://www.uibk.ac.at/informatik/studium/inday-students/index.html.en">inday students</a>. <span class="actions"><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="showHide('newsitem10', 'Abstract')">[Abstract]</a></span><blockquote id="newsitem10Abstract" style="display:none">Humanoid robotics plays a central role in robotics
