Prof. Sam Gershman (CBMM, Harvard) and Prof Noah Goodman (CBMM, Stanford)

We are pleased to announce a NIPS workshop on Bounded Optimality and Rational Metareasoning, which will take place on December 11, 2015, in Montreal, Canada.

This workshop brings together computer scientists working on bounded optimality and metareasoning with psychologists and neuroscientists reverse-engineering the computational principles that make the human brain incredibly resource-efficient. The goal of this workshop is to synthesize these different perspectives on bounded optimality, to promote interdisciplinary interactions and cross-fertilization, and to identify directions for future research.
