CPSI47013 — Bio-Inspired Technologies
Add to Bookmarks Three. credit hours. This course explores the principles and applications of bio-inspired technologies, focusing on the intersection of neurobiology, cognitive psychology, and artificial intelligence. The course combines theoretical foundations with hands-on computational activities, encouraging critical analysis of similarities and differences between biological and artificial systems. Students examine how biological mechanisms-such as neural signaling, learning, memory, perception, and decision-making-inspire computational models and architectures. Topics include biophysically detailed neuron modeling, reinforcement learning, deep learning, computer vision, and neuromorphic computing.
