034: Part 2 - The Quantum Violation of the Pigenhole Principle and its Implications with Dr. Tollaksen
02/29/16 • 32 min
Dr. Jeff Tollaksen joins us to discuss his groups’ latest discovery of the quantum violation of the pigeonhole principle. Dr. Tollaksen expands on how the field of physics has transformed from classical physics to quantum physics over the years. He explains how the culture has shifted from a deterministic view to a more capricious view with the acceptance of the quantum theory. We then discuss the quantum violation of the pigenhole principle and it's implications in more detail.

035: Visual Attention, Neural Networks and Computational Neuroscience with Dr. Rougier
Dr. Nicolas Rougier is a full-time research scientist at the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control. During the past decades he’s been working extensively on visual attention in order to understand how we visually explore a scene. Dr. Rougier discusses his work and visual attention and computation neuroscience in particular. He also dives deeper into how seeing is mostly an illusion and that we do not process all visual information that passed through our eyes and we're making deliberate (consciously or not) choices on what we concentrate.
