Title: Implementing engrams from a machine learning perspective: matching for prediction
Speaker: Jesús Marco, Instiituto de Física de Cantabria
Abstract:
<p><em>We will discuss how we might design a computer system to implement memory representations (engrams) using neural networks, with the main aim of exploring new ideas using machine learning techniques, guided by challenges in neuroscience.&nbsp; </em><em>We will analyze the use of latent neural spaces as indexes for storing and retrieving information in a compressed format based in autoencoders, an unsupervised method supporting predictive learning. We then consider how different states in latent neural spaces corresponding to different types of sensory input could be linked by synchronous activation, providing the basis for a sparse implementation of memory using concept neurons. </em><em>Finally, we will comment on some of the challenges and questions that link neuroscience and data science and that could have implications for both fields.</em></p>

Title: Interactive visualisation Dashboards : Transforming Research Papers into Dynamic Web Applications
Speaker: Akshay Tiwari, IFISC
Abstract:
<p>Visualization plays a pivotal role in research, especially for complex scientific projects involving numerous parameters. Imagine a scenario where, in addition to reading your paper filled with mathematical models and theoretical postulates, your audience could interact with your research. Picture them playing with parameters, visually comprehending the implications of your findings, all at their own pace and on any device - be it a phone, laptop, or PC.<br />
<br />
This session/Talk is to illuminate the potential of transforming your research papers into highly visual, interactive, and widely accessible web applications. The talk will provide an overview of a recent project where such a transformation was actualized, illustrating the transformation of a paper into a dynamic web application. It will also offer insights into the underlying architecture and building blocks of such projects, giving you an understanding of their capabilities and limitations. Moreover, it will showcase the future potential and possibilities that this innovative technology holds.<br />
<br />
So, if you&#39;re excited about discovering novel ways to present your research, or if you&#39;re intrigued by the intersection of research, web development, and data visualization, this talk is tailor-made for you. Join me as we delve into the future of research dissemination, exploring one interactive web application at a time.</p>

Title: Pint of Science 23: Detrás del enchufe: cómo funciona la red eléctrica
Speaker: María Martínez, IFISC (UIB-CSIC)
Abstract:
<p>Desde Tesla hasta las smart grids, la red el&eacute;ctrica ha evolucionado hasta convertirse en una de las infraestructuras m&aacute;s importantes del mundo. Exploraremos la complejidad de la red y su funcionamiento, incluyendo la importancia de la sincronizaci&oacute;n y la estabilidad. Abordaremos algunos de los desaf&iacute;os actuales, como los apagones y los efectos del cambio clim&aacute;tico. Hablaremos de energ&iacute;as renovables y c&oacute;mo se integran en la red, y veremos tecnolog&iacute;as emergentes que mejoran la eficiencia y seguridad.</p>

Title: Pint of Science 23: ¿Puede un grafo borracho volver a casa?
Speaker: Manuel Miranda, IFISC (UIB-CSIC)
Abstract:
<p>ser en cualquier direcci&oacute;n, incluso contraria a la del paso anterior. Justo esto es lo que los matem&aacute;ticos llamamos un caminante aleatorio. Veremos c&oacute;mo andan los borrachos por las calles o los laberintos y por qu&eacute; no es tan buena idea cumplir la fantas&iacute;a de que las personas puedan volar. Adem&aacute;s, comprender a estos borrachos nos ayuda a entender c&oacute;mo se extienden los cotilleos o los bulos, y que los sesgos pueden ser &uacute;tiles para predecir cosas tan poco alcoh&oacute;licas como los retrasos de los aviones.</p>

Title: Pint of Science 23: Flamenco: el arte que habla por sí solo
Speaker: Pablo Rosillo, IFISC (UIB-CSIC)
Abstract:
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ol&eacute;. Arsa. Ay. Exploraremos el significado de las letras del flamenco, viajando por sus palos desde Jerez hasta el barrio de Triana pasando por el Albayc&iacute;n, y veremos qu&eacute; tienen que decir la IA y el Machine Learning en el campo del flamenco computacional. Aprenderemos a distinguir algunos elementos de la rica y variada cultura musical que representa el flamenco, y quiz&aacute; entenderemos por qu&eacute; sigue, siglos despu&eacute;s, cautivando al p&uacute;blico de todo el mundo.</p>
