| Abstract for Research Report |
It is a well-known fact that elucidating the structure and function of the brain plays a very important role in various aspects of our lives, such as establishing diagnosis and treatment methods for neurological and psychiatric disorders, and constructing AI to support more comfortable and safe our lives. In order to introduce and construct innovative concepts without being bound by existing concepts and deepen the elucidation of the structure and function of the brain, it is strongly expected that technologies and strategies from other fields except for the brain science will be introduced, and efforts from the industries will be made to apply basic results into practical use and return them to society. Therefore, this joint research aims to be a starting point for further promoting efforts toward elucidating the structure and function of the brain and its industrial application and practical use, by inviting a wide range of participants from different fields including brain science, industry, and mathematical science; for example, such as industrial participants who apply various basic researches in brain science and information theory into practical uses, and mathematicians who are working on basic theories in machine learning and information theory as well as participants from brain science fields in research institutions such as universities. Furthermore, by inviting participants from overseas, mainly from South Korea, this joint research aims to deepen the results into a more international qualities. If the goals of this joint research are achieved, we can expect not only to make further progress in elucidating the structure and function of the brain and nerves, which will promote the establishment of diagnostic and treatment methods for neurological and psychiatric disorders, and the construction of AI to support more comfortable and safe our lives, but also to deepen collaboration between brain sciences, neuroscience, mathematics, and other different fields in related research subjects. |
