Keynote address I: From artificial to biologically-connected neural systems and behavior regeneration

Artificial neural network is a class of biologically-inspired systems that offer solutions to various real-life problems. In this talk, we will present recent advances on neural systems at anatomical and system levels. Recent researches on C. elegans disclose the complete wire diagram of the synaptic connections and morphology of C. elegans associated with functionalities. This enables not only the biologically-inspired neural modeling, but also biologically-connected neural modeling using dynamic neural networks. Real animal behaviors can thus be explored and regenerated through the celebrated neural learning algorithms.
