Social Learning Under Inferential Attacks

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Virginia Bordignon, Konstantinos Ntemos

A common assumption in the social learning literature is that agents exchange information in an unselfish manner. In this work, we consider the scenario where a subset of agents aims at driving the network beliefs to the wrong hypothesis. The adversaries a ...

Testing two competing hypotheses for Eurasian jays' caching for the future

Johanni Michael Brea

Previous research reported that corvids preferentially cache food in a location where no food will be available or cache more of a specific food in a location where this food will not be available. Here, we consider possible explanations for these prospect ...

Adaptive Social Learning

Ali H. Sayed, Virginia Bordignon

This work proposes a novel strategy for social learning by introducing the critical feature of adaptation. In social learning, several distributed agents update continually their belief about a phenomenon of interest through: i) direct observation of strea ...

Effective segmentation of fresh post-mortem murine lung parenchyma in phase contrast X-ray tomographic microscopy images

Goran Lovric, Marco Stampanoni

The acinus represents the functional unit of the mammalian lung. It is defined as the small tree of gas-exchanging airways, which is fed by the most distal purely conducting airway. Different hypotheses exist on how the fine structure of the acinus changes ...

From cineradiography to biorobots: an approach for designing robots to emulate and study animal locomotion

Auke Ijspeert, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Tomislav Horvat, Robin Thandiackal, Konstantinos Karakasiliotis, Navid Khajeh Mahabadi, Stanislav Yuri Tsitkov

Robots are increasingly used as scientific tools to investigate animal locomotion. However, designing a robot that properly emulates the kinematic and dynamic properties of an animal is difficult because of the complexity of musculoskeletal systems and the ...

The role of feedback in morphological computation with compliant bodies

Auke Ijspeert, Rolf Pfeifer

The generation of robust periodic movements of complex nonlinear robotic systems is inherently difficult, especially, if parts of the robots are compliant. It has previously been proposed that complex nonlinear features of a robot, similarly as in biologic ...

The intense world theory - a unifying theory of the neurobiology of autism

Henry Markram, Kamila Markram

Autism covers a wide spectrum of disorders for which there are many views, hypotheses and theories. Here we propose a unifying theory of autism, the Intense World Theory. The proposed neuropathology is hyper-functioning of local neural microcircuits, best ...
