SUMMARY:International Workshop on Dynamical Olfaction\, 30 June - 2 July\, 2010\, Brighton\, UK
DESCRIPTION:First call for Abstracts\, International Workshop on Dynamical Olfaction\, 30 June – 2 July\, 2010\, Brighton\, UK \n\n\n\nAnimals are able to experience complexly structured plumes of different combinations of chemicals as individual olfactory percepts. It appears that the olfactory system utilizes rich temporal dynamics to achieve this goal but exactly how is still an open challenge for modern neuroscience. In the last few years rapid progress has been made in our understanding of olfactory information processing. In this focused workshop on Dynamical Olfaction we will share recent developments\, both experimental and theoretical\, between the active researchers in the field.  \n\n\n\nConfirmed keynote speakers include: \n\n\n\nMaxim Bazhenov\, University of California Riverside\, USAC. Giovanni Galizia\, University of Konstanz\, GermanyHong Lei\, The University of Arizona\, USAJohannes Reisert\, Monell Chemical Senses Center\, USAMark Stopfer\, National Institutes of Health\, USAMassimo Vergassola\, Institut Pasteur\, Paris\, France\n\n\n\nThe programme committee is formed by \n\n\n\nJean-Pierre Rospars\, INRA VersaillesDominique Martiney\, LORIA Nancy & INRA VersaillesThomas Nowotny\, University of SussexSylvia Anton\, INRA Versailles\n\n\n\nThe workshop is financed by the BBSRC in the framework of the PheroSys project\, part of the ANR-BBSRC SysBio initiative. Registration IS FREE OF CHARGE but mandatory for our planning. \n\n\n\nImportant Dates: \n\n\n\nFirst call for abstracts (this call)February 12\, 2010Registration opensMarch 15\, 2010Deadline for abstract submissionsApril 15\, 2010Abstract acceptance notificationsApril 30\, 2010The workshop startsJune 30\, 2010\n\n\n\nParticipation is limited to 100 participants.

SUMMARY:5th International Symposium Percepnet: Olfative Perception: Emotion\, Information and Education
DESCRIPTION:Olfactory perception: emotion\, information\, education \n\n\n\nSmell is a “door in the shadows” of our sensory system\, one channel through which information pours mind is barely able to process and less streamlined. And yet\, of that information depends largely on our health care and quality of life\, our system of preferences\, our emotions and even our social position. We have more inertia that initiatives regarding the use of olfactory perception\, and despite this\, almost no one today is how to learn to use a tool such powerful. \n\n\n\nIt’s time to learn\, reflect and discuss some of the specific properties of the olfactory system and its influence increasingly explicit in the diganosis medical\, food\, identity and consumption. \n\n\n\nTOMORROW8:00 a.m. Attendees Reception \n\n\n\nWelcome 8:15 a.m. organization Jaume Estruch\, president of SECS Josep de Haro\, Congress president PS2010 \n\n\n\n8:30 a.m. Opening Ana Isabel Pérez Neira\, vice chancellor for research Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC)  \n\n\n\nDEBATE SESSION I \n\n\n\nThe processing of olfactory information using optimization mechanisms that influence learning and memory. However\, there are performances of olfactory perception beyond the identification of aromatic molecules. The sensomedicina\, a rapidly expanding discipline\, polls sensory profiles generated prematurely in the brain of patients with neurodegenerative diseases and that shows us that reality is a compromise between experience and processing capacity. \n\n\n\n9:00 a.m.: sensory receptors and SENSOMEDICINA OLFACTORY Moderator: Laura Lopez Mascaraque\, Instituto Cajal\, CSIC\, Madrid \, Pierre-Marie Lledo 9:10 a.m. Laboratory of Perception and Memory\, Pasteur Institute\, CNRS\, France “The flexible olfactory brain”Adolfo Toledano Muñoz 9:40 a.m.Fundación Hospital Alcorcón\, Madrid. Member of Spanish Olfactory Network “Role of olfaction in neurologic dysfunction (Alzheimer\, Parkinson) \n\n\n\n10:10 a.m. to 10:25 a.m. Debate \n\n\n\nSENSORY EXPERIENCE 10:25 a.m. [COFFEE] \n\n\n\nDISCUSSION SESSION II \n\n\n\nEating is a balancing act between our needs and low food availability.

SUMMARY:IEEE World Conference on Computational Intelligence: Special Session on Artificial Olfaction and Touch
DESCRIPTION:World Conference on Computational Intelligence\, July 18-23\, Centre de Convencions Internacional de Barcelona\, Barcelona\, Spain Related Conference: International Joint Conference on Neural Networks 2010Call for papers for Special Session: Computational Intelligence for Artificial Sensing: Olfaction and Touch \n\n\n\nScope:Recently there has been an renewed research activity in the field of biologically inspired computation for artificial sensing. While vision and hearing have received a great deal of attention in past decades\, in new wave of research is being devoted to olfaction and hearing. Both olfaction and touch rely on large sensor arrays and both have an important component on signal and data processing\, first in peripheral neural circuits and further on in higher cortical areas.On the other hand\, while in vision and audition stimuli can be systematically varied by frequency; there is not an equivalent metric for olfaction. The relationship between odour and structure is hardly understood.Artificial Olfaction Systems combine an array of chemical sensors with partial specificity with pattern recognition systems for complex odour detection and identification. While the concept is more than 30 years old\, most of the attention has been devoted to chemical sensor technology. Since the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology for Linda Buck and Richard Axel in 2004 for their discoveries of odorant receptors and the organization of the olfactory system\, the research link to biology and to the psychophysics of olfaction has been strengthened.In this sense\, the field of computational intelligence for artificial sensing is growing fast. The new trend is not just to build computational neuroscience models of olfaction and touch\, but to construct engineered artefacts where the operation of those models can be tested and validated. However\, this path is just starting. The aim of the special session is to present latest’s advances in computational intelligence for Artificial Olfaction and Touch. The session will mainly focus on biologically inspired algorithms\, although statistical learning techniques are also considered.  \n\n\n\nTopics: We encourage submissions addressing the following issues: \n\n\n\n–          Large sensor arrays: chemical and mechanical \n\n\n\n–          Sensor diversity and redundancy \n\n\n\n–          Noise reduction techniques \n\n\n\n–          Computational models of olfaction and touch \n\n\n\n–          Computational Intelligence Techniques applied to Olfaction and Tactile Data \n\n\n\n–          Analysis of biological data with computational intelligence tools. \n\n\n\n–          Psychophysics of Touch and Olfaction: Scenarios for algorithm testing. \n\n\n\n–          Benchmarking of Artificial Sensing Systems \n\n\n\n–          Robots with Olfactory/Tactile capabilities. \n\n\n\n–          Active Chemical/Mechanical Sensing \n\n\n\n–          Embedded algorithmic implementation for real-time operation. \n\n\n\nPaper submissionAll instructions and templates for submission can be found in the WCCI’10 web site (http://www.wcci2010.org/submission).
