TransductionTransduction is the transform of one form of energy into another form of energy. In the nervous system, transduction occurs when environmental energy is transformed into electrical energy.

Perceptual OrgansTransduction is the transform of one form of energy into another form of energy. In the nervous system, transduction occurs when environmental energy is transformed into electrical energy.

Neural ProcessingNeural processing is the operations that transformthe electrical signals in the networks of neurons. An important processing is to extract the primary sketches from sensory raw data.

How Do We Study Perception?

This course is to understand information processing in the nervous system.

• computer simulations of neural circuits, models of learning, • representation of sensory information in neural networks, • computational analysis of problems in biological sensing and perception

Three Topics

• Learning in neural network• Interaction bwteen our neural system and physical environment• Sensory integration

How To Do A Project?

Research & Project

” The good researcher is not ’one who knows the right answers’ but ’one who is struggling to find out what the right questions might be’ ”

Phillips and Pugh, 1994

1. Setting your project

2. Conducting your project

3. Presenting your project

Project

1. Setting your project

• Writing a proposal

• Project planning

Writing a project proposal

• Thinking about

Title, aim, objectives, extected outcomes, related research, questions, hypotheses,

methods, .....

Project Planning

• Work breakdown

• Time estimates

• Milestone identification

• Activity sequencing

• Scheduling

• Replanning

2. Conducting your project

• Literature searching and literature reviews

• Doing your project

Literature review

To avoid ”re-invent wheel”

Doing your project

• Project Control

• Dealing with problems

• Managing your time

• Using your supervisor

• Team work

3. Presenting your project

• Writing report

• Oral presentation

Good luck!

What is a ”project”?

Project = ”Solving a problem”

A Problem?

• What is the problem?

• How to solve the problem?

• How to know that the problem has been solved?

• How good is the solution? A quality measure.
