Brain Inspired Cognitive Systems - BICS 2010 aims to bring together leading scientists and
engineers who use analytic and synthetic methods both to understand the astonishing processing
properties of biological systems and, specifically those of the living brain, and to exploit such
knowledge to advance engineering methods for building artificial systems with higher levels of
cognitive competence.
BICS 2010 is a meeting point of cognitive systems engineers and brain scientists where cross-domain
ideas are fostered in the hope of getting new emerging insights on the nature, operation and
extractable capabilities of brains. This multiple approach is necessary because the progressively more
accurate data about brains is producing a growing need of both a quantitative and theoretical
understanding and an associated capacity to manipulate this data and translate it into engineering
applications rooted in sound theories.
BICS 2010 is intended for both researchers that aim to build brain inspired systems with higher
cognitive competences, and as well to life scientists who use and develop mathematical and
engineering approaches for a better understanding of complex biological systems like the brain.
BICS 2010 is organized around four major interlaced focal symposia that are organized into patterns
that encourage cross-fertilization across the symposia topics. This emphasizes the role of BICS as a
major meeting point for researchers and practitioners in the areas of biological and artificial cognitive
systems. Debates across disciplines will enrich researchers with complementary perspectives from
diverse scientific fields.
