Today we continue our 2019 NeurIPS coverage, this time around joined by Blake Richards, Assistant Professor at McGill University and a Core Faculty Member at Mila. In our conversation, we discuss: His invited talk at the Neuro-AI Workshop “Sensory Prediction Error Signals in the Neocortex.”  His recent studies on two-photon calcium imaging, predictive coding, and hierarchical inference. Blake’s recent work on memory systems for reinforcement learning.  The complete show notes for this episode can be found at twimlai.com/talk/331.
