Neuroscience, AI and the Future of EducationThis talk was presented at TEDx Southbank, Australia, in February 2016.
It overviews some of the neuroscience underpinning iKnow, and how AI can be used to better personalise education. |
UQ Research and InnovationiKnow is founded on a strong empirical background of psychology, neuroscience and artificial intelligence.
This brief article overviews our research at the University of Queensland exploring the fundamental processes underlying memory and learning. In this project we investigated the neural processes underlying children's learning, and implemented this in robots and software, creating intelligent systems that learned from self-directed exploration, in the same manner as children. Understanding the mechanisms underlying human memory and learning, has allowed us in iKnow to develop teaching algorithms highly tuned to how the brain processes information, to maximise learning and retention. |
