Titel der Dissertation:
One Computer Scientist’s (Deep) Superior Colliculus. Modeling, understanding, and learning from a multisensory midbrain structure
Abstract:
The superior colliculus is a mid-brain region which integrates sensory input to localize multisensory stimuli. This thesis aims to close the gap between models of SC physiology and system-level behavior, and development thereof. A new model of the SC based on selforganized statistical learning is proposed and it is shown to replicate a variety of important biological phenomena. It is then applied to a problem in robotics: binaural sound-source localization. We show that our algorithm can learn to perform state-of-the-art sound-source localization.
