\nAbstract: Electron microscopes (EM) can now provide the nanometer resolution that is needed to image synapses, and therefore connections, while Light Microscopes (LM) see at the micrometer
\nresolution required to model the 3D structure of the dendritic network. Since both the arborescence and the connections are integral parts of the brain’s wiring diagram, combining these two modalities is critically important.<\/h5>\n
In this talk, I will therefore present our approach to building the dendritic arborescence from LM images, to segmenting intra-neuronal structures from EM images, and to registering the resulting models. I
\nwill also discuss our recent work on building neural representations using functional data.<\/h5>\n
Pascal Fua joined EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) in 1996, where he is a Professor in the School of Computer and Communication Science and head of the Computer Vision Lab. Before
\nthat, he worked at SRI International and at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis as a Computer Scientist. His research interests include shape modeling and motion recovery from images, analysis of microscopy images, and
\nAugmented Reality. He has (co)authored over 300 publications in refereed journals and conferences. He has received several ERC grants and has co-founded three spinoff companies.<\/h5>\n

Abstract<\/h4>\n

The world is becoming unprecedentedly connected thanks to emerging media and cloud-based technologies. The holy grail of metaverse requires recreating a remotely shared world as a digital twin of the physical planet. In this world, the human is probably the most complex mechanical, physical, and biological system. Unlike computers, it is remarkably challenging to model and engineer how humans perceive and react in a virtual environment. By leveraging computational advancements such as machine learning and biometric sensors, this talk will share some recent research on altering and optimizing the human visual and behavioral perception toward creating the ultimate metaverse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
