Subject: [Cogsci-faculty] Sage Lecture: Pawan Sinhja Sept. 23

Hi all,

The first Sage Center for the Study of the Mind lecture of the Fall  
term will occur this Thursday, September 23rd at 4:00 pm.

Title: "Learning to See"

Pawan Sinha is an Associate Professor of Vision and Computational  
Neuroscience, Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, at MIT. He  
investigates how visual recognition proceeds, including the  
computational principles that underlie our impressive recognition  
abilities. His research laboratory focuses on this issue using a  
combination of experimental and computational modeling techniques. The  
two specific questions that the lab is currently exploring concern the  
nature of the object representations in the brain and how object  
representations can be learned from visual experience.

Where: Mosher Alumni House, 2nd floor

If you would like to meet with Pawan, please contact Matthew Turk
(mturk at cs.ucsb.edu 
) and indicate your availability through 4:00pm that day.
