[14:30] Coast-to-Coast Seminar: Cognitive Dynamic Systems

Speaker: Dr. Simon Haykin, Cognitive Systems Laboratory, McMaster University

In this lecture, I will describe a new generation of engineering systems with cognition as the enabler. I will begin by describing the perception-action cycle that is basic to the visual brain. Then I will demonstrate how cognitive information (signal) processing is so basic to the underlying theory and design of:

• cognitive radio;
• cognitive radar; and
• cognitive mobile assistants,

which constitute the three pillars of my research program.

I will finish the lecture by doing two things:

• present new and exciting results on cognitive tracking radar and thereby demonstrate the power of cognition; and
• describe my vision on future research on Cognitive Dynamic Systems.

NOTE: due to the size and complexity of delivering cross-country seminars, we regret we cannot support desktop AG connections for the Coast-to-Coast seminars

If you are planning to attend this seminar, ensure you have registered using the link provided at the top of this announcement. AG rooms will only be opened for these seminars where someone has indicated they plan to attend, and it is critical that we be aware of significant attendees in case a larger room needs to be booked.
