Aim of this course is to provide the theoretical basis aimed at fostering an interdisciplinary and integrative interaction between clinicians, AI algorithm designers, medical-application-specific “chip scientists”. The interaction between AI and cognitive neuroscience/neuropsychology will be discussed, with a focus on how information derived from neurophysiological data can guide AI to manage different final effectors through brain computer interfaces (BCI). Furthermore, the use of AI to advance the knowledge on brain functioning with the application of machine learning on brain signals will be discussed.
Prerequisiti
The course requires the student to have notions that are preparatory to the topics covered in the teaching course.
Metodi didattici
The course is organized in frontal lectures, through PowerPoint presentations, complemented with video sessions and interactive sessions, with practical examples of human diseases. This will be integrated with case studies and simulation approaches. In addition, the training activities may be integrated by in-depth seminars.
Verifica Apprendimento
