2 jul 2017 - 14 jul 2017
Palazzone of the Scuola Normale Superiore, Cortona, Italy
Summer School in Neurogeometry
Organisers
Dmitri Alekseevsky (Russian Academy of Science)
Giovanna Citti (University of Bologna)
Jean Petitot (CAMS - EHESS)
Alessandro Sarti (CAMS - EHESS/CNRS)
First week of courses
Jêrome Ribot (College de France): Physiological properties of neurons in the primary visual cortex
Enrico Le Donne (University of Jyvaskyla): Riemannian and subRiemannian geometry in Lie groups
Second week of courses
Davide Barbieri (Universdad Autonoma de Madrid): Harmonic analysis for modeling visual cortical functions
Remco Duits (TU Eindhoven): Orientation score theory and its solutions to cortical PDE, ODE and Wavelet models
Scope is to provide students at the end of Master classes or at the beginning of PhD school with an introduction to Neurogeometry.
Instruments of differential geometry in anisotropic structures and experimental brain data allow to build efficient models of the visual cortex,
with applications to image processing.
Theoretical courses will be held in the morning and complementary activity in the afternoon.
Under the sponsorship of the Consorzio Interuniversitario per l’Alta Formazione in Matematica (CIAFM)
and the Italian Ministery of University and Research (MIUR)
and Istituto di Alta Matematica (INdAM)
and the European project MANET: FP7PEOPLE2013ITN Project
ref. 607643, UNIBO and CAMS – EHESS, Paris
The registration to Cortona Neurogeometry 2017 course is open on line at http://nobelio.math.unifi.it/smi/ Deadline for applications is June 10, 2017.
