Join the Washington Section in hosting Arnon Amir, Senior Research Scientist at IBM Research Almaden and David J. Yonce CEO of Cogwear for an evening discussing new frontiers of Neuromorphic Computing. Topics will include novel processors that mimic the structure and behavior of the human brain and wearable sensors that allow people to evaluate and improve their cognitive health. The event will begin with a welcome reception with food and drinks, followed by two technical talks on Neuromorphic Computing. Arnon Amir will virtually present an overview of new developments made by IBM's NorthPole chip, and Cogwear CEO David J. Yonce will present in person on advances in Cogwear's wearable devices that use advanced brain monitoring to provide users with helpful insights for their health. Both talks will provide concrete examples of Neuromorphic Computing in industry from novel brain-inspired computer architectures to improving users' neurological health with clinical grade monitoring.
Food and beverages will be provided prior to the talks, and parking is free for all attendees.
