  Modellierung von Wahrnehmung und Handlung
Department: Faculty 1 - Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Glasauer, Stefan
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every summer semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:The students know the subject and the methods of analysis, modelling and simulation of perception and action processes at different levels of abstraction. They have knowledge of probabilistic models and the mathematical modelling of questions in cognitive neuroscience and can understand and apply algorithms and solution strategies.
Contents:
  • Introduction to modelling software
  • Elementary principles of probability theory
  • Examples of experimental analysis of perceptual and action processes
    - Multisensory perception
    - Context dependence of perceptual processes
    - Action control
  • Quantitative modelling of perception, decision-making and action processes
    -  Sensory systems
    -  Central processing of sensory impressions
    -  Decision-making and action control
