About this episode
Professor Rodolphe Sepulchre discusses the insights gained from studying biological neurons and their implications for control and decision making.
In this latest episode of Brains and Machines , Professor Rodolphe Sepulchre, a control theorist from the University of Cambridge, talks to Dr. Sunny Bains of University College London. They discuss the inspiration he took from studying biological neurons, why both discrete and continuous behaviors are inherent to how they work, and why building neurons is often easier than simulating them.
